| The aim of the presented work was to characterize single-walled carbon nanotubes as well as multi-walled carbon nanotubes by transmission electron microscopy, the Raman spectroscopy and magnetization measurements to obtain information about their size, structure, and magnetic properties. We show that having different carbon nanotubes one can easily distinguish the single-wall or multi-wall carbon nanotubes and determine their quality. The obtained results show that carbon nanotubes can be diamagnetic or ferromagnetic depending on their structural parameters. |
