We report a method for site-specific fabrication of Fe catalyst particles on silica (SiO2) substrate by electron beam induced decompositionat 650 (EBID) of iron nonacarbonyl. The unobstructed, atomic level in situ observations of the catalyst particles, recorded degrees C in 8-15 mTorr of acetylene, reveal the structural transformations during reduction, sintering, carburization of Fe nanoparticles and subsequent CNT growth.
