Vertically aligned pearl-like carbon nanotube arrays for fiber spinning.
Due to their unique structure and physical properties and numerous potential applications, carbon nanotubes have been extensively studied recently and are expected to attract more attention in the future.1 Morphology control of carbon nanotubes represents one of the most explored directions. Except for the normal linear structure, nanotubes with morphologies of ring,2 rocket,2 branch,3 cone,4 b...
متن کاملHigh density, vertically-aligned carbon nanotube membranes.
A method is presented to prepare high-density, vertically aligned carbon nanotube (VA-CNT) membranes. The CNT arrays were prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and the arrays were collapsed into dense membranes by capillary-forces due to solvent evaporation. The average space between the CNTs after shrinkage was approximately 3 nm, which is comparable to the pore size of the CNTs. Thus, ...

متن کاملPolyethylenimine Carbon Nanotube Fiber Electrodes for Enhanced Detection of Neurotransmitters
Carbon nanotube (CNT)-based microelectrodes have been investigated as alternatives to carbon-fiber microelectrodes for the detection of neurotransmitters because they are sensitive, exhibit fast electron transfer kinetics, and are more resistant to surface fouling. Wet spinning CNTs into fibers using a coagulating polymer produces a thin, uniform fiber that can be fabricated into an electrode. ...
متن کاملGraphene-vertically aligned carbon nanotube hybrid on PDMS as stretchable electrodes.
Stretchable electrodes are a critical component for flexible electronics such as displays, energy devices, and wearable sensors. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene have been considered for flexible electrode applications, due to their mechanical strength, high carrier mobility, and excellent thermal conductivity. Vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (VACNTs) provide the possibility to serve as...
