Carbon nanotubes are moving from lab curiosities to workhorse components in quantum hardware, and one of the most striking examples is their use as single-photon light sources. By exploiting their ...

The team’s new synthesis protocol allows for the production of tungsten disulfide nanotubes which point in the same direction. The material they make show the key properties of single nanotubes. Tokyo ...

Carbice’s solution, known as the Ice Pad, solves this problem both on a thermal and a mechanical level, Cola says. By laying a sheet of nanotubes across the chip, where the paste would be, he says it ...

Carbon nanotubes have emerged as a material of exceptional interest in both fundamental research and applied science, owing to their distinctive optical and electronic characteristics. Their quasi-one ...

Carbon nanotubes, the experimental materials seen as possible replacements for conventional chip-making materials, conduct electricity better than any other material at room temperature, according to ...

Scientists at Rice University found a new way to make liquid crystals from boron nitride nanotubes. Instead of using acids or polymers to disperse the nanotubes, they used a common surfactant and ...

An international team of scientists from the Center for Advanced Sensor Technology demonstrated the ability of twisted carbon nanotubes to store three times more energy per unit mass than ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have made tungsten disulfide nanotubes which point in the same direction when formed, for the first time. They used a sapphire surface ...
