Improved Hydrophobicity of Carbon Nanotube Arrays with Micropatterning
Langmuir, 2009The hydrophobicity of vertically aligned multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was improved through the creation of a parallel array of microwalls via a laser pruning technique. Changes to the hydrophobic nature of the patterned MWCNTs due to artificially induced roughness through variations in both the widths of the walls and the distance between ...

Toward Single-Chirality Carbon Nanotube Device Arrays
ACS Nano, 2010The large-scale integration of devices consisting of individual single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT), all of the same chirality, is a critical step toward their electronic, optoelectronic, and electromechanical application. Here, the authors realize two related goals, the first of which is the fabrication of high-density, single-chirality SWCNT ...

Single-walled 4 Å carbon nanotube arrays
Nature, 2000Here we describe the smallest carbon nanotubes possible1, prepared by the pyrolysis of tripropylamine molecules in the channels of porous zeolite AlPO4-5 (AFI) single crystals2. These uniformly sized carbon nanotubes have a diameter of 0.4 nm and are the best example of one-dimensional quantum wires.

Adhesion and friction characteristics of carbon nanotube arrays
Nanotechnology, 2014There has been a great deal of interest in understanding, design and fabrication of bio-mimetic and bio-inspired adhesives in recent years. In this paper we present theoretical investigations on adhesion, friction behaviors and characteristics of fibrillar arrays composed of noninteracting carbon nanotubes for bio-inspired dry adhesives.

Carbon nanotube arrays for photovoltaic applications
JOM, 2007Vertically aligned periodic arrays of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are used to create topographically enhanced light-trapping photovoltaic cells. The CNTs form the back contact of the device and serve as a scaffold to support the photoactive heterojunction.

Carbon nanotube array smart materials
SPIE Proceedings, 2006Highly aligned multi-wall carbon nanotube arrays up to 4 mm tall were synthesized on Si wafers using a chemical vapor deposition process with water delivery. Based on the long nanotube arrays, several prototype smart materials were developed including a biosensor, electrochemical actuator, and nanotube probes.

Polymers in aligned carbon nanotube arrays
2013In der vorliegenden experimentellen Studie untersuchen wir das Verhalten von Polymeren in Arrays ausgerichteter Kohlenstoffnanoröhrchen (carbon nanotubes, CNT). Der Füllmechanismus des Polymers in Verbundwerkstoffen mit hochgradig geordneten und senkrecht ausgerichteten Kohlenstoffnanoröhrchen wird charakterisiert.
