Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is an experimental technique based on the principles of quantum tunneling of electrons between two electrodes separated by a potential barrier, typically used for ...

Toxicological and pharmacological studies suggest guidelines for the safe use of carbon nanotubes in medicine. In their latest study 3, the authors dispersed 50 μg of nonfunctionalized MWNTs of ...

For maximum resolution in a scanning tunneling microscope (STM), an extremely sharp metallic tip is required, which serves as the point through which the STM “scans” a sample. A blunt tip reduces STM ...

However, the quest for alternatives that are both more efficient and environmentally friendly has led to a spotlight on carbon nanotubes, a material that not only boasts strength surpassing steel ...

Now, Yuichiro Kato and two colleagues, all at the RIKEN Center for Advanced Photonics, have pinned down exactly how UCPL works in single-walled carbon nanotubes—drinking-straw-like cylinders of ...

This database lists worldwide suppliers of hundreds of non-carbon and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Please let us know if we missed a supplier or a product. CNTs are allotropes of carbon with a cylindrical ...
