One-dimensional slidetronics is predicted for double-walled boron-nitride nanotubes. Local electrostatic polarization patterns along the body of the nanotube are found to be determined by the nature of the two nanotube walls, their relative configuration, and circumferential faceting modulation during coaxial interwall sliding.

Abstract Wettability studies of liquids inside nanometre scale channels commenced shortly after the discovery of carbon nanotubes in the early 1990s. Since then the field has progressively expanded to other kinds of nanotubes and nanochannels as they have become available.

Carbon Nanotubes in Biomedicine [PDF]
Nowadays, biomaterials have become a crucial element in numerous biomedical, preclinical, and clinical applications. The use of nanoparticles entails a great potential in these fields mainly because of the high ratio of surface atoms that modify the physicochemical properties and increases the chemical reactivity.

Photo-electrocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanotubes prepared with two-step anodization and treated under UV light irradiation [PDF]
To improve the photo-catalytic degradation of salicylic acid, we reported the fabrication of ordered TiO2 nanotube arrays by a simple and effective two-step anodization method and then these TiO2 nanotubes treated in a methanol solution under UV light ...

AbstractIn this review, we show that the structure and behavior of single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs) are essentially polymeric; in fact, many have referred to SWNTs as “the ultimate polymer”. The classification of SWNTS as polymers is explored by comparing the structure, properties, phase behavior, rheology, processing, and applications of SWNTs with ...

Intercalation experiments for morphological alteration of kaolinite present in iron ore tailings [PDF]
The main aim of this work was to evaluate the use of kaolinite present in iron ore tailings (IOT) in the synthesis of halloysite-like structures. The segregation of kaolinite was performed by acid leaching of the IOT. Three steps were strictly controlled

We have constructed a fully functional, fully integrated radio receiver from a single carbon nanotube. The nanotube serves simultaneously as all essential components of a radio: antenna, tunable band-pass filter, amplifier, and demodulator. A direct current voltage source, as supplied by a battery, powers the radio.

The effect of sintering temperatures of TiO2(B)-nanotubes on its microstructure [PDF]
Titanium dioxide (TiO2)-nanotubes were prepared by a simple technique reflux. The morphologies and microstructures of nanotubes were characterized by high resolution scanning electron microscopy (HRSEM), high resolution transmission electron ...

Sorting and transmission electron microscopy analysis of single or double wall carbon nanotubes [PDF]
On the basis of the recent progress on the sorting of carbon nanotubes’ structure with respect to their diameter or number of walls, we investigate by transmission electron microscopy the sorting efficiency, with a comparison with optical absorption ...
