                                Systems and methods for the fabrication of elongated carbon-based nanostructures on metallic substrates, including aluminum-containing substrates, are generally described. Inventive articles comprising elongated carbon-based nanostructures and metallic substrates are also described. Also described herein are articles that absorb a relatively large percentage of electromagnetic radiation over relatively broad ranges of wavelengths.
