carbon nanotubes

Carbon nanotube ‘twistron’ yarn generates electricity when stretched

Everyone wants smart clothes, but no one wants to wear a battery pack. Truly a first-world problem. But that doesn't mean a solution can't be interesting. Researchers at the University of Texas, Dalla

How carbon nanotubes could give us faster processors and longer battery life

Carbon nanotubes are one of those supermaterials — a cylinder with a diameter of one or two nanometers — that are full of dreamy applications, ranging from supercomputers to ultra-efficie

Teslaphoresis-activated self-assembling carbon nanotubes look even cooler than they sound

Not all important scientific research is cool looking, or has a cool name. But now and then you get something with both. These self-assembling carbon nanotubes are created with a process called Teslap
