Abstract

A facility for the formation of carbon nanostructures by chemical vapor deposition method on a space station board is presented. Unique solutions for thermal protection, optimal weight and size without using explosive gases and dangerous materials offer an opportunity to use the facility for the formation of carbon nanostructures under complex conditions: large temperature and pressure drops, microgravity and cosmic radiation. Layout of the facility was created and tested on the ground. Varying substrates, gas environment, temperature and pressure inside the chamber, carbon nanotubes and diamond-like coating can be obtained.
