A water-soluble carbon nanotube network conjugated by nanoparticles with defined nanometre gaps.

چکیده
Cage-shaped proteins with an affinity for carbonaceous materials were constructed and used to assemble a nanostructure in which single-walled carbon nanotubes are surrounded by cobalt oxide nanoparticles with nanometre gaps. By changing the size of proteins and materials incorporated inside the cavity, similar structures with distinctively different properties can be fabricated.

Incident angle dependence of nanogap size in suspended carbon nanotube shadow lithography
Suspended nanotubes or nanowires can be used in line-of-sight depositions to produce nanometre-scale lines. Reported here is the experimental quantification of line-of-sight shadow widths for multiwalled carbon nanotubes that are suspended (400 nm) over a silicon nitride (Si3N4) membrane (transmission electron microscopy) TEM grid by a lithographically defined resist line array. Aluminium evapo...
متن کاملModifying functionalized-carbon-nanotube capacity to enhance water-vapor adsorption capacity from nitrogen gas
The primary objective of this paper is to enhance the water-vapor-adsorption capacity of multiwall-carbon-nanotube (MWCNT) from nitrogen gas by grafting sulfonic acid groups and doping palladium nanoparticles into the adsorbent. MWCNT has been selected to be modified because of having homogeneous adsorption energy compared to silica gel. As a result, it is capable of creating isotherm having sh...
متن کاملCarbon nanotube sponge filters for trapping nanoparticles and dye molecules from water.
Carbon nanotube sponges show effective filtration for nanoparticles and dye molecules with different sizes and concentrations from water. The three-dimensional interconnected porous structure formed by entangled nanotubes can trap nanoparticles and molecules by physisorption without the need for chemical functionalization. The sponge filters are potential environmental materials for water treat...

In this study, artificial neural network was used to predict the microhardness of Al2024-multiwall carbon nanotube(MWCNT) composite prepared by mechanical alloying. Accordingly, the operational condition, i.e., the amount of reinforcement, ball to powder weight ratio, compaction pressure, milling time, time and temperature of sintering as well as vial speed were selected as independent input an...
متن کاملWater-soluble conjugated polyelectrolyte brush encapsulated rare-earth ion doped nanoparticles with dual-upconversion properties for multicolor cell imaging.
A concise route to prepare water-soluble rare-earth ion doped upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) by encapsulation of grafted cationic conjugated polyelectrolyte brushes (PFNBr) is reported. Integrating two kinds of upconversion materials effectively addresses multicolor fluorescence by introducing the concept of dual-upconversion.
