Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are remarkable objects that once looked set to revolutionize the technological landscape in the near future. Since the 1990s and for twenty years thereafter, it was repeatedly claimed that tomorrow’s society would be shaped by nanotube applications, just as silicon-based technologies dominate society today.

WIREs Nanomedicine and Nanobiotechnology, 2010
AbstractCarbon nanotubes (CNTs) have extensively been used for electrochemical and optical biosensing due to the unique mechanical, chemical, and electrical properties. This review introduces two functionalization categories, noncovalent interaction along the CNTs sidewalls via physical adsorption or entrapment and covalent binding via carboxylate ...

ChemPhysChem, 2003
AbstractSince the discovery of carbon nanotubes by Iijima in 1991, various carbon nanotubes with either a single‐ or multilayered graphene cylinder(s) have been produced, along with their noncarbon counterparts (for example, inorganic and polymer nanotubes).

He atoms in carbon nanotubes and nanotube bundles
Physical Review B, 2004We report results for the energetics and single-particle spectra of $^4$He and $^3$He atom confined by one, two, and three carbon nanotubes, obtained using both a smooth--tube model for the interaction between helium atoms and tubes, and a realistic model that takes the atomic structure of the tubes into account.

Thermal conductivity in nanotubes and nanotube bundles
2005Nanotubes show a very interesting behaviour of lattice thermal conductivity depending on the tube diameter, with very high thermal conductivities for small diameters. In bundles of nanotubes, the thermal conductivity is affected by the reduced dimensionality of the phonon system.

Perspective of nanotube sensors and nanotube actuators
4th IEEE Conference on Nanotechnology, 2004., 2005The state of the art of nanotube sensors and nanotube actuators are overviewed according to the physical properties/effects (large aspect ratio, ultra-high elasticity, lower onset field emission, ultra-small interlayer friction, etc.) applied, number of nanotubes (single, double or multiple-array, fiber, film and bulk) involved, and configurations of ...

Carbon nanotube motors driven by carbon nanotube
The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2008We propose a new type of carbon nanotube (CNT) motor composed of a single-wall CNT (SWCNT) and a double-wall CNT (DWCNT), that are in mechanical contact. The rotational motion of our CNT motor is controllable by the translational motion of the SWCNT along the axis of the DWCNT.

Mechanics of nanotubes and nanotube-based devices
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2003We discuss the mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes and devices incorporating carbon nanotubes. We demonstrate novel measurement and force application techniques using an atomic force microscope coupled to a unique computing environment that simplifies manipulations.
