Probing The Inner Secrets Of Multi-Layer Carbon Nanotubes

19 April 2007

NANOFORUM (UK) - Researchers at the University of Surrey have shown for the first time that knowing the structure of the surface layer of a multi-layer carbon nanotube is not enough to predict its electronic properties. The contribution of inner layers is crucial, and this has serious implications when it particularly comes to fabricating electronic devices such as transistors and molecular interconnects.
