3D Parts Integrated on Carbon-nanotube Wafer

National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) manufactured integrated 3D carbon-nanotube components by using single-layer carbon nanotubes. A "carbon-nanotube wafer" developed by densely aligning carbon nanotubes enabled to use microfabrication techniques of lithography.

FAST FLOW THROUGH CARBON NANOTUBES: The animation starts with the depiction of the water flow through a regular "rough" pipe. The molecules near the wall stick to it and move much slower than the molecules in the middle of the pipe. Colors indicate the speed of the molecules -- green are fast, yellow are slower, red are the slowest. The rough pipe fades and the carbon nanotube appears. All the molecules in the carbon nanotube move fast (green). They do not stick to the surface of the nanotube because that surface is very slippery. The water molecules travel in chains because they interact with each other strongly via hydrogen bonds. These two effects (the slippery nanotube surface and formation of water molecule chains inside the nanotube) combine to produce this phenomenon of ultra-fast flow through carbon nanotubes.

Book Review of Chemistry and Physics of Carbon, Vol. 30

This book covers a wide range of topics on the chemistry, physics, and applications of carbon and carbon materials. Like previous volumes, the subjects discussed here reveal the multidisciplinary nature of carbon research, as can be seen in the titles of its chapters: (1) “Carbon Activation by Alkaline Hydroxides: Preparation and Reactions, Porosity and Performance: by Linares-Solano et al.; “Template Approaches to Preparing Porous Carbon” by Zhao and co-workers; “Characterization of Carbon Surface Chemistry” by Burg and Cagniant; and “Sorption of Heavy Oils into Carbon Materials” by Inagaki and co-workers. In addition to a standard Table of Contents, there is also a list of the contents of the previous 29 volumes as well as a subject index.

Nantero, SVTC installing CMOS-friendly carbon nanotube process

To accelerate the commercialisation of carbon nanotube-based electronics products, carbon nanotube (CNT) semiconductor device developer Nantero said it is working with semiconductor development foundry SVTC Technologies to install a "CMOS-friendly" CNT process at SVTC's fabs in San Jose, Calif, and Austin, Texas.

The role of surfactants in carbon nanotube toxicity

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Synthesized carbon nanotubes, especially single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), are in the form of bundles with other impurities such as catalyst particles and amorphous carbon debris. In order to be useful for many types of applications, for instance in nanoelectronic devices or biomedical applications, SWCNTs need to be purified and dispersed into individual nanotubes. One method to do this is by surfactant stabilization of the hydrophobic nanotube surface, which overcomes the van der Waals forces among the nanotubes and results in suspensions of individual SWCNTs.

Unidym Announces a Demonstration by Samsung Electronics of the First Carbon Nanotube-Based Electrophoretic Display

Unidym, Inc, a majority-owned subsidiary of Arrowhead Research Corporation (NASDAQ:ARWR), announced today that Samsung Electronics is demonstrating the world's first carbon nanotube-based active matrix electrophoretic display (EPD) e-paper in its booth at the Society for Information Display (SID) International Symposium, Seminar and Exhibition at the Los Angeles Convention Center from May 18th through May 23rd. The new e-paper device is the result of an ongoing joint development program between Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. and Unidym. The e-paper device uses a carbon nanotube transparent electrode developed by Unidym.

Daz 3D Bridge for Photoshop

Many illustrators and artists would like to include 3D elements in their artwork, but are often put off by the deeply technical aspects of 3D modelling and rendering. Daz Studio provides an easy way to create 3D scenes from libraries of modifiable objects, and the suite’s creator has now released 3D Bridge for Photoshop, designed to provide a smooth workflow between true 3D work in Daz’s tool and layered 2D art in Photoshop.

Carbon nanotube technology could su..

Just as silicon is the wonder material of the computer age, carbon nanotubes will most likely be the materials responsible for the next evolutionary step in electronics and computing. Their extraordinary properties have identified them as having the potential to revolutionize many technologies. In particular, it is widely believed that carbon nanotubes will take electronic devices to the next level. Many people expect the hugely popular LCD and plasma screens to be replaced by field emission flat screen displays (FED-TV). FED-TV's combine all the best aspects of CRT's, LCD's and plasma TV's into a single package. While the technology exists, manufacturers are at present unable to compete with LCD's and plasma displays on a cost basis. However, carbon nanotubes have the ability to change all that.

Clarification: Carbon nanotubes study performed on mice

Weekly reported on a new study that shows some potential for carbon nanotubes to behave like asbestos if inhaled. We failed to report, however, that the study was conducted by injecting carbon nanotubes into the abdomen of mice. Conclusions reached about the inhalation risk of carbon nanotubes were made by researchers involved in the project based on results of the injection regime. There is, as yet, no direct evidence that inhalation of carbon nanotubes poses a health risk, and researchers involved in the study acknowledged that more experimentation is required to fully assess inhalation risk.

Nanochemistry inside carbon nanotubes

(Nanowerk Spotlight) As far as test tubes go, it doesn't get any smaller than a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT). Among the wide range of interesting properties exhibited by SWCNTs is their capacity to encapsulate molecules within their quasi one-dimensional cavity. The confinement offered by the nanotube could serve as a nanoscale test tube to constrain a chemical reaction. This was demonstrated in principle back in 1998, when the coalescence of adjacent fullerenes was observed by transmission electron microscopy ("Encapsulated C60 in carbon nanotubes"). In the following years, scientists have extensively experimented with filling nanotubes with other fullerenes, atoms, molecules and, very recently, with organic molecules. Owing to their large variety with diverse chemical properties, the incorporated organic molecules can tune the
