Abstract
Abstract The discovery of multi-walled carbon nanotubes1 and single-walled carbon nanotubes2 has prompted numerous studies of the structure, properties3,4, and potential applications5,6of these materials. For example, nanotubes are expected to have a high strength-to-weight ratio6, which is advantageous in advanced composites to be used in high performance materials such as aircraft frames. The small dimensions of the tubes show promise for use as a gas absorption medium7, a field emitter for use in flat-panel displays8, and nanoscale electronic devices9.
