Scientists control chirality in carbon nanotubes

Monday, April 29, 2013 - 09:30 in Physics & Chemistry

 An ultimate goal in the field of carbon nanotube research is to synthesise single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with controlled chiralities. Twenty years after the discovery of SWNTs, scientists have managed to control chirality in carbon nanotubes during their chemical vapor deposition synthesis.
