A dietary fiber can assist separate out semiconducting carbon nanotubes used for making transistors for versatile electronics.

Scientists have performed an in-depth research on how carbon nanotubes with oxygen-containing teams can be utilized to drastically improve the efficiency of perovskite photo voltaic cells. The newly found self-recrystallization capability of perovskite may result in enchancment of low-cost and environment friendly perovskite photo voltaic cells.

Nanotube tunnels prolong like bridges for the poisonous Huntington's illness protein, and spring again after supply, a brand new examine finds.

Carbon nanotubes are supermaterials that may be stronger than metal and extra conductive than copper, however they're uncommon as a result of, till now, they have been extremely costly.

The Skoltech suggests otherwise. Scientists rejected the plans that the use of ions and electrolytes, and return to the classic "two electrodes and insulator between them." The space between the electrodes is filled nanotubes boron nitride. It's a unique material strength and elasticity, a good insulator. Layer thickness of only ...

This configuration enables us to extend the supercapacitor, overcoming the limitation that conventional configurations of supercapacitor, the two electrodes start to move in comparison with the separation under tension.
