Carbon Nanotube Spheres Fabricated with Light
Apr 1, 2008 — As more potential photonic applications are being explored for carbon nanotubes, which are valued for properties such as ultrafast recovery times and optical nonlinearity, the construction and handling of nanotubes remain an issue. Nanotubes are prone to becoming entangled with other nanotubes, and it is difficult to separate them. Once separated, depositing them precisely in the correct spot can be laborious. Some of the construction methods, meanwhile, require steps such as chemical...
