For a number of applications, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) need to be functionalized by metallic or metal oxide thin films or nanoparticles. The current work is therefore considered with the thermal atomic layer deposition (ALD) of CuxO from the liquid Cu(I) β-diketonate [(nBu3P)2Cu(acac)] and wet oxygen at 135∘C on carbon nanotubes. Since high quality CNT surfaces are chemically inert, a pretreatment is required. For this reason the influence of different thermal oxidations onto the subsequent CuxO ALD was investigated. Depending on the oxidation either the growth of particles or a rather layer like growth was observed. The Cu/C ratio measured via EDX reaches its maximal values for a pretreatment with oxygen. This suggests that the used precursor couples to oxygen surface groups.
