Flow conveying and diagnosis with carbon nanotube arrays
Dense arrays of aligned carbon nanotubes are designed into strips, nanowicks, as a miniature wicking element for liquid delivery and potential microfluidic chemical analysis devices. Liquid wicks away along the nanowicks spontaneously. This delivery function of nanowicks enables novel fluid transport devices to run without any power input, moving parts or external pump. Flow around the opaque n...
متن کاملMechanomutable carbon nanotube arrays
Here we present atomistic-based multi-scale simulation studies of a magnetically active array of carbon nanotubes to illustrate the concept of mechanomutability. We show that applying external fields, it is possible to change the nanostructure and to induce a desired mechanical response. Direct numerical simulations are reported that illustrate this concept via mechanical testing through nanoin...
متن کاملCarbon Nanotube Arrays
This colorized, perspective SEM image shows aligned arrays of single-walled carbon nanotubes grown on a quartz substrate in two sequential cycles of chemical vapor deposition (red and blue), as reported by John Rogers and co-workers. The gold line depicts an electrode contact to the array. The SEM image in the background shows regions of dual and single growth on the left and right, respectively.
متن کاملPhotonics with multiwall carbon nanotube arrays.
We investigate the photonic properties of two-dimensional nanotube arrays for photon energies up to 40 eV and unveil the physics of two distinct applications: deep-UV photonic crystals and total visible absorbers. We find three main regimes: for small intertube spacing of 20-30 nm, we obtain strong Bragg scattering and photonic band gaps in the deep-UV range of 25 approximately 35 eV. For inter...
متن کاملStrong carbon-nanotube fibers spun from long carbon-nanotube arrays.
The superior mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) mean they have been regarded as a new material with the potential to revolutionize and enable many advanced technologies. CNTs have extremely high tensile strength ( 150 GPa), high modulus ( 1 TPa), large aspect ratio, low density, good chemical and environmental stability, and high thermal and electrical conductivity. These superior...
