Description
Synthesis of thin multi-walled carbon nanotubes uniformly filled with over 40% of iron is reported. Magneto-resistance measurements of these novel nano-materials at low temperatures over a wide range of magnetic field, up to 12 Tesla establish one-dimensional behavior and show their potentials for novel spintronic device applications.
