Effects of Nanotube/Matrix Interface on Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube Reinforced Polymer Mechanical Properties
In this paper, experimental and Finite Element Methods have been used to determine mechanical properties of nanocomposites. Standard tensile and compression samples with 0.0, 0.15, 0.25, 0.35, 0.45, and 0.55 weight fraction of Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube (MWCNT) were prepared and tested. Nanotube weight fraction was varied to investigate the effects of nanotube weight fraction on nanocomposite...
متن کاملInsect-machine interface: a carbon nanotube-enhanced flexible neural probe.
We developed microfabricated flexible neural probes (FNPs) to provide a bi-directional electrical link to the moth Manduca sexta. These FNPs can deliver electrical stimuli to, and capture neural activity from, the insect's central nervous system. They are comprised of two layers of polyimide with gold sandwiched in between in a split-ring geometry that incorporates the bi-cylindrical anatomical...
متن کاملPhotocurrent Amplification at Carbon Nanotube-Metal Contacts
ply a similar model. When using an electron beam instead of an ion beam, the CNTs could not be aligned, which indicates that the mass of the charge carrier is possibly involved in the process. The CNT aligned by this method maintains its elasticity, as is observed in the bending test with a nanomanipulator installed in the scanning electron microscope. Furthermore, we could obtain stable SFM im...
متن کاملEnhancement of thermal interface materials with carbon nanotube arrays
This paper describes an experimental study of thermal contact conductance enhancement enabled by carbon nanotube (CNT) arrays synthesized directly on silicon wafers using plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. Testing based on the one-dimensional reference bar method occurred in a high-vacuum environment with radiation shielding, and temperature measurements were made with an infrared camer...
متن کاملSingle carbon nanotube transistor at GHz frequency.
We report on microwave operation of top-gated single carbon nanotube transistors. From transmission measurements in the 0.1-1.6 GHz range, we deduce device transconductance gm and gate-nanotube capacitance Cg of micro- and nanometric devices. A large and frequency-independent gm approximately 20 microS is observed on short devices, which meets the best dc results. The capacitance per unit gate ...
