Abstract Macroscopic carbon nanotube (CNT) arrays, bundles and ribbons were synthesized by chemical vapor deposition on different substrates with coating, and were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) examinations. The results show that the well-aligned arrays were synthesized on the quartz glass and the length reaches millimeter range; CNTs macroscopic films or bundles with different diameter were prepared by self-organizing on the stainless steel with Al2O3 coating; Macroscopic CNT ribbons were synthesized on different substrates with SiO2 coating, and aligned ribbons were prepared on nickel substrate. The formation mechanism of macroscopic structures was discussed.
