We present a novel floating catalyst synthesis route for individual, i.e. non-bundled, small diameter single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with a narrow chiral angle distribution peaking at high chiralities near the armchair species. An…
A simple method to disperse individual single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT ) on an atomically flat substrate is presented. Proper tuning of ac modes of atomic force microscopes(AFM) is discussed. This is needed to discriminate between…
This paper proposes a bottom-up sequence of modeling steps leading to a nanoscopically informed continuum, and as such macroscopic, theory of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). We provide a description of the geometry of the two most…
The extraordinary one-dimensional properties of carbon nanotubes have captivated scientists and engineers since their discovery in the early 1990s. In particular, semiconducting single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are highly promising for…
