1. Nature of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes' Interactions with Differing Photosensitizers

   31 Aug 2023 | | Contributor(s):: Rubiona Grainger, Nima Soltani, Rice University

   It was recently discovered that when Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (SWCNTs) wrapped with single-stranded DNA are exposed to singlet oxygen the singlet oxygen reacts with the guanine nucleotides embedded in the DNA. The singlet oxygen is produced by irradiation of a photosensitizer. However,...

   30 Mar 2008 | | Contributor(s):: Manfred M. Kappes

   The talk presents results from ongoing projects in the field of carbonnanostructures: (i) Mass selected ion beam soft-landing has been usedto generate exotic fullerene materials comprising covalent linked,non-IPR cages. Apart from microscopic structure, we have studiedthermal and electronic...

4. Self-Consistent Geometry, Density and Stiffness of Carbon Nanotubes

   out of 5 stars 

   04 May 2010 | | Contributor(s):: R. Byron Pipes

   A self-consistent set of relationships is developed for the physical properties of single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCN) and their hexagonal arrays as a function of the chiral vector integer pair, (n,m). Properties include effective radius, density, principal Young’s modulus, and specific Young’s...

9. What Promises do Nanotubes and Nanowires Hold for Future Nanoelectronics Applications?

   out of 5 stars 

   18 Feb 2008 | | Contributor(s):: Joerg Appenzeller

   Various low-dimensional materials are currently explored for future electronics applications. The common ground for all these structures is that the surface related impact can no longer be ignored – the common approach applied to predict properties of bulk-type three-dimensional (3D) materials....
