摘要
To understand the initial stage in the growth of carbon nanotubes and graphene, we investigate the adsorption and diffusion of carbon atoms on the surfaces of metals such as nickel and copper. Adsorption geometries and binding energies of carbon atoms on the low-index metal surfaces and in their subsurfaces are considered. Then, the surface and subsurface diffusion barriers of a single carbon atom are calculated. On the basis of the results obtained, it is found that the carbon diffusion in nickel and copper plays an important role in the growth of these carbon-based materials.
