Low-temperature ozone-assisted atomic layer deposition (ALD) of SiO2 with four silane derivatives (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES), bis(diethylamino)silane (BDEAS), diphenylaminosilane (DPAS), and triethylsilane on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) leads to the one step formation of SiO2 nanotubes. In the process, CNTs act as templates and are removed during the ongoing deposition. From transmission electron microscopy images, the formation of a void between the CNTs surface and the SiO2 coating was observed, indicating an unexpected removal of carbon from the CNTs. This gap grows as the number of ALD cycles is increased, eventually leading to SiO2 nanotubes almost free of carbon. ATR-IR and EELS spectra proved the SiO2 formation. Depending on the CNTs templates used in this process, different morphologies of one-dimensional SiO2 nanostructures are obtained, including simple nanotubes, hollow wall nanotubes, tube-in-tube structures, and SiO2 nanowires. The application of this process on vertically aligned CNT...
