    Arrays of well‐aligned, ca. 4.7 mm long carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are grown in a simple, safe, and cost‐effective manner using an efficient Al2O3/Fe catalyst prepared by an ion‐beam assisted deposition technique (see figure). Importantly, the as‐synthesized CNT arrays with lengths ranging from 500 μm to 1.5 mm are conducive to spinning, and CNT fibers spun from such long CNT arrays show remarkably improved tensile strength.
