Different carbon-based nanomaterials can be produced via ‘bottom-up’ route. Under high-energy conditions (plasma and combustion synthesis activation) different precursors are volatilized and the controlled condensation results in the formation of sought products. Thus, we present the production, characterization and prospect applications of the following carbon-related species: (i) carbon nanotubes and carbon encapsulates; (ii) layered graphite; and (iii) silicon carbide nanowires. Optical spectroscopy and photo registration of the processes help to better understand the formation path way.
