A nanotube is a nanoscale cylindrical structure with a hollow core, typically composed of carbon atoms, though other materials can also form nanotubes. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are the most well-known and widely studied type, consisting of rolled-up sheets of graphene with diameters ranging from about 1 to tens of nanometers and lengths up to ...
Helping to create the initial excitement associated with carbon nanotubes were Iijima's 1991 discovery of multi-walled carbon nanotubes in the insoluble material of arc-burned graphite rods; [11] and Mintmire, Dunlap, and White's independent prediction that if single-walled carbon nanotubes could be made, they would exhibit remarkable ...
Single-walled carbon nanotubes can be shortened in a scalable manner using oleum (100% H 2 SO 4 with 3% SO 3) and nitric acid. The nitric acid cuts carbon nanotubes while the oleum creates a channel. [6] In one type of chemical modification, aniline is oxidized to a diazonium intermediate.
Soon after, ensemble membranes consisting of multi-walled and double-walled carbon nanotubes were fabricated and studied. [4] It was shown that water can pass through the graphitic nanotube cores of the membrane at up to five magnitudes greater than classical fluid dynamics would predict, via the Hagen-Poiseuille equation, both for multiwall ...
Lalwani et al. have reported a novel radical initiated thermal crosslinking method to fabricated macroscopic, free-standing, porous, all-carbon scaffolds using single- and multi-walled carbon nanotubes as building blocks. [5] These scaffolds possess macro-, micro-, and nano- structured pores and the porosity can be tailored for specific ...

Capacitance of nanotubes consists of quantum, C q and electrostatic capacitance C e. For multi-wall carbon nanotubes, there is the shell-to-shell coupling capacitance, C c. Additionally there is a coupling capacitance, C cm between any two CNT bundles. As for inductance, CNTs have both kinetic, L k and magnetic inductance, L m.
A single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) can be envisioned as strip of a graphene molecule (a single sheet of graphite) rolled and joined into a seamless cylinder.The structure of the nanotube can be characterized by the width of this hypothetical strip (that is, the circumference c or diameter d of the tube) and the angle α of the strip relative to the main symmetry axes of the hexagonal ...
