Single-wall and multiwall carbon nanotubes are currently the subject of an intense research effort owing to the\udoutstanding properties they may possess. Many synthesis methods have been proposed, most of which involve\udnanometric metal particles. In this article the various mechanisms proposed for nanotube nucleation and growth\udfrom such particles have been reviewed. The micro/nanostructure of the materials obtained by the different\udmethods have also been addressed
