  1. Can carbon nanotubes fluoresce fully?

    Article

    Thu, 2 Feb 2012

    February 2, 2012 -- Rice University studied the fluorescence of single-walled carbon nanotubes ( SWCNT ) in new research, finding that the lengths and imperfections of individual nanotubes affect their fluorescence. This research

  2. Oriented CNTs enable better strain sensors

    Article

    June 3, 2011 -- Japanese researchers have developed a strain sensor with oriented single-walled carbon nanotube ( SWCNT ) films bonded to a stretchable polymer substrate. The sensor can measure strains by detecting changes in the films' electrical

  1. Conference Report: MRS Spring 2012, Day 5

    Urbana (John Rogers group) presented a method for aligning SWCNT and subsequently removing the metallic tubes (m-CNT) to leave ..... fabrics as a replacement for ITO. Candidate materials include SWCNT , Ag nanowires and graphene, but each has its down side. The

  2. Conference Report: MRS Spring 2012, Day 4

    EE7.1 Taishi Takenobu of Waseda U (Japan) showed some recent work on inkjet printing of single-wall carbon nanotubes ( SWCNT ) thin-film transistors (TFT). Separation of metallic from semiconducting CNT is required to avoid being trapped by a tradeoff

  3. CNT supercapacitors enable harsh-environment energy storage

    Article

    about 100nm wide. Credit: Hauge Lab/Rice University. Rice used 15-20nm bundles of single-walled carbon nanotubes ( SWCNT ) up to 50m long. Carbon nanotubes were used to give the electrons high surface area, increasing capacitance. Each bundle

  4. SRC and SEMATECH remove toxic nano contaminant from CNTs

    Article

    other industries that benefit from carbon nanotubes' unique nano properties. The research team found that one functionalized SWCNT family, carboxylated single-walled carbon nanotubes (CSWNTs), reduced the ability of mammalian cells to grow in culture

  5. 3 graphene fab methods: Researchers claim cheap, easy, high yielding processes

    Article

    environmentally friendly, and cost-effective. Hosmane's research group was looking to produce single-wall carbon nanotubes ( SWCNT ), a different nanomaterial. "Instead, we isolated few-layer graphene," he said. "It surprised us all." Other members
