Leeches run cold, then hot.
Food processing is costly, potentially limiting the energy and time devoted to other essential functions such as locomotion or reproduction. In ectotherms, post-prandial thermophily, the selection of a warm environmental temperature after feeding, may be advantageous in minimizing the duration of this elevated cost. Although present in many vertebrate taxa, this behaviour had not previously bee...
متن کاملSynthesis of Carbon Nanotubes by Plasma Enhanced Hot-Filament C
A mixture of acetylene, hydrogen and ammonia C2H2/H2/NH3 is used to produce carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by a plasma-enhanced catalytic chemical vapor deposition process with hot-filaments assistance (PE HF CCVD). The investigation of gas phase and surface chemistry is performed by CHEMKINTM software. The concentration of gas phase species on the substrate is presented. Based on this study the role ...
متن کاملGeneration of terahertz radiation by hot electrons in carbon nanotubes.
We demonstrate theoretically that quasi-metallic carbon nanotubes emit terahertz radiation induced by an applied voltage. It is shown that in the ballistic transport regime their spontaneous emission spectra have a universal frequency and bias voltage dependence, which raises the possibility of utilizing this effect for high-frequency nanoelectronic devices.
متن کاملElectron transport and hot phonons in carbon nanotubes.
We demonstrate the key role of phonon occupation in limiting the high-field ballistic transport in metallic carbon nanotubes. In particular, we provide a simple analytic formula for the electron transport scattering length, which we validate by accurate first principles calculations on (6, 6) and (11, 11) nanotubes. The comparison of our results with the scattering lengths fitted from experimen...
