Carbon nanotube based composite membranes for water desalination by membrane distillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
New technologies are required to improve desalination efficiency and increase water treatment capacities. One promising low energy technique to produce potable water from either sea or sewage water is membrane distillation (MD).

Carbon Nanotube Actuators

open access: yesScience, 1999
Electromechanical actuators based on sheets of single-walled carbon nanotubes were shown to generate higher stresses than natural muscle and higher strains than high-modulus ferroelectrics. Like natural muscles, the macroscopic actuators are assemblies of billions of individual nanoscale actuators.

Charge distribution of metallic single walled carbon nanotube–graphene junctions

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
We report numeric and analytic calculations of the electrostatic properties for armchair carbon nanotube–graphene junctions. Using a semi-empirical method we first demonstrate that the equilibrium distance between a carbon nanotube and a graphene sheet ...

Boundary layer chemical vapor synthesis of self-organized radial filled-carbon-nanotube structures

open access: yes, 2013
We report a new chemical vapor synthesis method that exploits random fluctuations in the viscous boundary layer between a laminar vapor flow and a surface to yield a not previously observed product: radial ferromagnetically filled-carbon-nanotube ...

Probing Electronic Properties of Carbon Nanotubes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Carbon nanotubes are quasi-one-dimensional objects that have many remarkable electronic properties. In Chapter I, an electrostatic force microscopy technique to probe the local density of states of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) under ambient ...

Fe/Ge catalyzed carbon nanotube growth on HfO2 for nano-sensor applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A carbon nanotube (CNT) growth process on HfO2 is reported for the first time for application in nano-sensors. The process uses a combination of Ge nanoparticles and ferric nitrate dispersion and achieves an increase in CNT density from 0.15 to 6.2 μm ...

Carbon Nanotubes for Supercapacitor [PDF]

open access: yesNanoscale Research Letters, 2010
As an electrical energy storage device, supercapacitor finds attractive applications in consumer electronic products and alternative power source due to its higher energy density, fast discharge/charge time, low level of heating, safety, long-term operation stability, and no disposable parts.
