Sentences with phrase «nanotube junctions»

A few nanoscale adjustments may be all that is required to make graphene - nanotube junctions excel at transferring heat, according to Rice University scientists.

Now scientists will have to probe the electrical properties of these nanotube junctions.

«To conclude,» Banhart writes, «a connection between carbon nanotubes was achieved by depositing carbon contamination selectively at nanotube junctions with an electron beam.»

Not exact matches

Because the junctions can adopt many different geometries depending on the radius and chirality of the nanotube, there are many more potential configurations to be modeled, he said.

The new study suggests that a third parameter — the nature of the junction between the graphene and nanotubes — should also be considered.

[emphasis mine] Now the team has published a paper which suggests that electrical signals pass through the nanotubes and that a «gap junction» enables transmission to nonadjacent cells.
