having conducted fundamental projects, scientists have expressed their hope to develop the use of carbon nanotubes to release drugs. it is important to release drugs in cell without damaging healthy cells of tissues under study. researchers have shown the fact that nanotubes can perform this function perfectly. to this objective, in the present study the interactions between four anti-cancer dr...

Individual carbon nanotubes were immersed and removed from various organic liquids using atomic force microscopy. The carbon nanotube-liquid interactions could be monitored in situ, and accurate measurements of the contact angle between liquids and the nanotube surface were made. These wetting data were used to produce Owens and Wendt plots giving the dispersive and polar components of the nano...

Carbon nanotube conducting arrays were constructed via consecutive amidation reactions with the aid of a linker molecule and a condensation agent on a patterned amine-terminated glass substrate. The electrical resistivity of the nanotube films was sensitive to the degree of coverage for the substrate, making it possible to tailor nanotube multilayers suitable for use in micro- or nanoscale elec...

As-produced carbon nanotubes come in bundles that must be exfoliated for practical applications in nanocomposites. Sonication not only causes the exfoliation of nanotube bundles but also unwanted scission. An understanding of how precisely sonication induces the scission and exfoliation of nanotubes will help maximising the degree of exfoliation while minimising scission. We present a theoretic...

Carbon nanotubes show vast potential to be used as building blocks for photodetection applications. However, measurements of fundamental optical properties, such as the absorption coefficient and the dielectric constant, have not been accurately performed on a single pristine carbon nanotube. Here we show polarization-dependent photocurrent spectroscopy, performed on a p-n junction in a single ...

A nanolaboratory—a prototype nanomanufacturing system—is presented, which is composed with a nanorobotic manipulation system with 4 units and 16 degrees-offreedom (DOFs), a nano fabrication system based on electron-beam-induced deposition (EBID) with an internal or external precursor evaporation reservoir equipped with a thermal field emission electron source or a nanotube cold cathode, and a r...

The perturbations induced in a lipid bilayer by the presence of a transmembrane nanotube are investigated using coarse grained molecular dynamics. Meniscus formation by the lipids and tilting of the nanotube occur in response to hydrophobic mismatch, although these two effects do not compensate completely for the total mismatch. The lipid head-to-tail vector field is examined and shows strong o...
