Carbon nanotubes

Description:
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are cylindrical nanostructures composed of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, exhibiting remarkable mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties. They can be classified into single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), with SWCNTs consisting of a single layer of carbon atoms and MWCNTs comprising multiple concentric layers. CNTs are known for their exceptional tensile strength, which is significantly greater than that of steel, and their lightweight nature, making them ideal for various applications in nanotechnology, materials science, and electronics. Additionally, they exhibit unique electrical properties, behaving as either conductors or semiconductors depending on their chirality and diameter, which allows for their use in advanced electronic devices. Carbon nanotubes also possess excellent thermal conductivity, making them suitable for applications in thermal management. However, concerns regarding their environmental impact and potential toxicity have prompted ongoing research into their safe handling and application. Overall, carbon nanotubes represent a versatile and promising class of nanomaterials with a wide range of potential uses across multiple fields.
