Structural characterization of cup-stacked-type nanofibers with an entirely hollow core
Applied Physics Letters, 2002Straight long carbon nanofibers with a large hollow core obtained by a floating reactant method show a stacking morphology of truncated conical graphene layers, which in turn exhibit a large portion of open edges on the outer surface and also in the inner channels.

Formation and atomic structure of boron nitride nanotubes with a cup-stacked structure
Solid State Communications, 2007Abstract Boron nitride (BN) nanotubes were synthesized by annealing Fe 4 N/B powder at 1000 ∘ C for 1 h in a nitrogen gas atmosphere, and large amounts of BN nanotubes with a cup-stacked structure were obtained after a purification process. The atomic structures of the cup-stacked BN nanotubes were investigated by high-resolution electron microscopy

Positronium Formation in Alkali Metal-intercalated Cup-stacked Carbon Nanofibers
Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 2005Positrons injected into alkali metal-intercalated cup-stacked carbon nanofibers convert to positronium (Ps) atoms with a quite high yield of ca. 25%, which is insensitive to insertion of alkali metal intercalant layers and charge transfer from alkali metal to graphene sheets.

Atomic structures and stability of boron nitride nanotubes with a cup-stacked structure
Diamond and Related Materials, 2005Abstract Boron nitride (BN) nanotubes were prepared as mixtures of α-Fe 2 O 3 , B and carbon powders, followed by annealing at 1100 °C for 2 h on alumina boats in a furnace under nitrogen atmosphere. BN nanotubes with cup-stacked structures were observed by high-resolution electron microscopy, and molecular mechanics calculation showed that the ...

Water Confined in Hydrophobic Cup-Stacked Carbon Nanotubes beyond Surface-Tension Dominance
The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2019Water confined in carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can exhibit distinctly different behaviors from the bulk. We report transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation of water phases inside hydrophobic cup-stacked CNTs exposed to high vacuum. Unexpectedly, we observed stable water morphologies beyond surface-tension dominance, including nanometer thin free ...

Influence of Cup Stacking on Hand-Eye Coordination and Reaction Time of Second-Grade Students
Perceptual and Motor Skills, 2004Cup stacking has been adopted recently by many physical education programs to enhance rudimentary motor skills such as hand-eye coordination and ambidexterity as well as quickness and concentration; however, no empirical evidence has been published to support these claims.

Fabrication of highly crystalline NbOx nanotube/cup-stacked CNT nanocomposites.
Journal of nanoscience and nanotechnology, 2012Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are promising catalyst supports for fuel cell applications. Metal oxide/CNT nanocomposites are also being studied for dye-sensitized solar-cell, photocatalyst, and sensor applications. The fabrication of nanocomposites consisting of highly crystalline NbOx nanotubes and cup-stacked carbon nanotubes (CSCNTs) is reported herein ...
