Nanotube Production Leaps From Sooty Mess In Test Tube To Ready Formed Chemical Microsensors

Wednesday, May 7, 2008 - 12:14 in Physics & Chemistry

Carbon nanotubes' potential as a super material is blighted by the fact that when first made they often take the form of an unprepossessing pile of sooty black mess in the bottom of a test tube. Now chemists have found a way of producing carbon nanotubes in which they instantly form a highly sensitive ready made electric circuit.
