Effect of Nitrogen Atoms in the CNT Structure on the Gas Sensing Properties of PANI/CNT Composite
Herein we report the gas-sensitive properties to ammonia (at 2–10 ppm) of individual nanostructures of a polyaniline/nitrogen-doped carbon nanotube composite with a nitrogen content of 0 at.% (uCNTs), 2 at.% (N-CNTs) and 4 at.% (N+-CNTs).

Using large language models to analyze political texts through natural language understanding
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) offer scalable alternatives to human experts when analyzing political texts for meaning, using natural language understanding (NLU). Qualitative NLU methods relying on human experts are severely limited by cost and scalability.
