In this research by equilibrium adsorption isotherms of vitamin B2 (Ribo Flavin) on carbon nano-tubes having the multi wall through several discontinues method has been studied.with the help of spectro photometer (UV / VIS) adsorption chart based on the wavelength of vitamin B2 has been obtained, and the relevant graph is plotted .by considering factor of concentration, the concentration necess...

Nano-plasticity of thin single-wall carbon nanotubes under uniaxial compression is investigated through generalized tight-binding molecular dynamics (GTBMD) and ab-initio electronic structure methods. A novel mechanism of nano-plasticity of carbon nanotubes under uniaxial compression is observed in which bonding geometry collapses from a graphitic (sp 2) to a localized diamond like (sp 3) recon...

Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) are increasingly employed in nanomedicine as carriers for intracellular transport of drugs, imaging probes, and therapeutics agents, thanks to their unique optical and physicochemical properties. However, a better understanding about the effects of CNMs on a vertebrate model at the whole animal level is required. In this study, we compare the toxicity of oxidized car...

We describe the nanofabrication study of self-aligned electrodes on suspended multiwalled carbon nanotube structures. When metal is deposited on a suspended multiwalled carbon nanotube structure, the nanotube acts as an evaporation mask, resulting in the formation of discontinuous electrodes. The metal deposits on the nanotubes are removed with lift-off. Using Al sacrificial layers, it was poss...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and carbon nanotube field effect transistors (CNFETs) have demonstrated extraordinary properties and are widely expected to be the building blocks of next generation VLSI circuits. This chapter presents (1) the first purely CNT and CNFET based nanoarchitecture, (2) an adaptive configuration methodology for nanoelectronic design based on the CNT nano-architecture, and (3)...

Owning to their unparalleled sensitivity resolution, nanomechanical resonators have excellent capabilities in design of nano-sensors for gas detection. The current challenge is to develop newdesigns of the resonators for differentiating distinct gas atoms with a recognizably high sensitivity. In this work, the characteristics of impulse wave propagation in carbon nanotube-based sensors are inve...

The surface analysis of nanomachined AISI D2 tool steel materials is measured using atomic force microscopy. The surface roughness and fractal dimensional analysis are the important factors in nano tribology and evaluating the quality of nanomachined surface. Carbon nanotube increases the heat carrying capacity, thermal conductivity of the lubricating oil and thus prevents any damage to the wor...

In this research work cobalt-ferrite (CoFe2O4) nanoparticles were synthesized by a simple, general sol-gel auto-combustion method. For this study, electromagnetic (EM) wave absorbing coatings with different weight fractions of nano-carbon and CoFe2O4 (which, arises from both dielectric and magnetic contributions) and polymeric epoxy resin were prepared and their characteristics were fully inves...

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are one of the most significant achievements of nano-technology because of its important applications in the design of electronic nano-devices. The study of their properties is therefore important. In this study, Density Functional Theory (DFT) was used to investigate the adsorption of gas molecules on the surface of carbon nanotubes. Theoretical studies have found that ...
