Title: Carbon Meta-Nanotubes Condition: New Subtitle: Synthesis, Properties and Applications Author: Marc Monthioux Format: Hardback EAN: 9780470512821 ISBN: 9780470512821 Publisher: John Wiley & Sons Inc Genre: Technology & Engineering Release Date: 30/12/2011 Description: Meta-Nanotubes are a new generation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) which result from the chemical transformation of regular CNTs and their subsequent combination with foreign materials (atoms, molecules, chemical groups, nanocrystals) by various ways such as functionalisation, doping, filling, and substitution. These new nanomaterials exhibit enhanced or new properties, such as reactivity, solubility, and magnetism, which pristine CNTs do not possess. Their many applications include electronic and optoelectronic devices, chemical and biosensors, solar cells, drug delivery, and reinforced glasses and ceramics. Carbon Meta-Nanotubes: Synthesis, Properties and Applications discusses these third generation carbon nanotubes and the unique characteristics they possess. Beginning with a general overview of the subject, this book covers the five main categories of meta-nanotubes, namely: - Doped Carbon Nanotubes
- Functionalised Carbon Nanotubes
- Decorated or Coated Carbon Nanotubes
- Filled Carbon Nanotubes
- Heterogeneous Nanotubes
Providing unparalleled coverage of these third generation or meta-nanotubes, and possibilities for future development, this book is essential for anyone working on carbon nanotubes.
