Rather than trying to devise complicated and very expensive graphene production processes, or novel ways of producing large amounts of carbon nanotubes, researchers at the University of California in Los Angeles (UCLA) have created a new compound, which is a lot faster and easier to produce, and also takes the best o... |

Researchers at the University of Glasgow (UG) recently took the first place in the race to construct the world's smallest diamond transistor, when they constructed one only 50 nanometers in length. The new device is the work of UG Department of Electronics & Electrical Engineering expert Dr. David Moran and his ... |

Recent research done in Italy and Switzerland shows that carbon nanotubes may be the best bet in the attempt to engineer an artificial brain, mostly because of their chemical and electrical properties, which closely resemble those of human neurons. The complete study was published on December 21st, in the on-line iss... |

Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are one of the new, emerging technologies for which more and more applications are being discovered and they seem to be one of the things we'll hear about even more in the future. Even though their existence has been discovered some 10 years ago, it is only recently that they have been mor... |

Producing carbon nanotubes is easy - scientists cracked that secret more than a decade ago, albeit making them grow in an orderly fashion is somewhat more complicated. Or at least it was, because two teams of researchers have recently proven new methods through which carbon nanotubes can be sorted and organized so th... |

Aside from being very unreliable when it comes to retaining an electric charge for long periods of time, typical batteries sometimes also have problems with excessive heating that can make them either explode and start fires, or leak toxic fluids when left unused for long periods of time. Additionally, most of the ti... |

A new study published yesterday implies that carbon nanotubes may behave like asbestos when being inhaled in particular quantities. Similar to asbestos, carbon nanotubes may triggers a form of lung cancer known as mesothelioma, which appears within three to four decades after the exposure. Simply put, the study says ... |

Only one thing comes to my mind when talking about carbon nanotube electrical properties, conductive transparent polymer plastics, which pretty much have a wide range of applications, especially in the manufacturing process of solar cells. It seems that the conductivity of a carbon nanotube additive can be changed re... |

Carbon nanotubes have been considered for some time now the perfect building blocks for the future generation of ultrafast computers, but working with such small structures is no easy task, especially while trying to line them up into a specific architecture. This wouldn't be so big a deal, however it disables t... |
