Orthogonal Carbon Nanofibers by Template-Mediated Assembly of Discotic Mesophase Pitch

Novel carbon nanofibers (see Figure) are synthesized by capillary impregnation of discotic mesophase pitch into nanochannel alumina. Heating and chemical etching produces nanofibers with a unique “orthogonal” arrangement of graphene layers. Unlike conventional nanofibers and ‐tubes, the graphene pla...
