Onion-like Fullerenes(OLFs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes can be synthesized by arc discharge in cyclohexane while graphite is used as electrodes.Field-emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM) techniques were used to characterize the morphologies and structures of the deposit formed on the surface of cathode.UV-VIS absorption spectrometer was used to analyze the residual cyclohexane solution.As a result

OLFs and multi-walled carbon nanotubes with large amount were observed in the deposit formed on the surface of cathode.OLFs were also found in the residual cyclohexane.
