In this article, we report the synthesis of ultra-long carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by thermal chemical vapour deposition method. Ultra-long, individual and aligned CNTs were directly grown on a flat silicon substrate. The orientation of the nanotubes was found parallel to the gas flow direction. The ultra-long CNTs were grown with different transition metallic salts, such as nickel chloride, iron (III) chloride, cobalt acetate and ruthenium acetate, as the catalysts. The influence of the growth conditions, such as growth temperature, reactive gas flow on the length and alignment of the CNTs was studied in detail. By using different catalysts, ultra-long single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) or multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were successfully grown. These ultra-long CNTs were transferred to other substrates by two methods. (1) The first method is to use polydimethylsiloxane as a stamp. (2) The second method is to use KOH as an etching agent. The diameter and length of the CNTs were characterised by transmission electron microscope, scanning electron microscope, atomic force microscope and Raman spectroscopy. The results indicate that the length of the CNTs can reach up to 4 mm. The diameter of the SWCNTs is in the range of 0.7-2.1nm and the diameter of the MWCNTs is approximately 150 nm.
