High adsorptive property of opened carbon nanotubes at 77 K
Article Abstract:
At 77 K and moderate pressure, it is demonstrated that single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) exhibit excellent properties of physical adsorption that show a value of computed gravimetric density storage equal to 11.24 wt percent. It is observed that the latter value leads to the conjecture that these nanoscale-dimension materials could play a determining role in the improvement of hydrogen storage by adsorption.

High-yield assembly of individual single-walled carbon nanotube tips for scanning probe microscopies
Article Abstract:
The study demonstrates simple and high yield means of producing individual nanometer and sub-nanometer diameter of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) tips for atomic force microscopy (AFM) and other scanning probe microscopies. SWNT tips offer significant advantages for AFM applications in structural biology and could spatially resolve functional imaging and single molecular spectroscopy.

Static and frequency-dependant polarizability tensors for carbon nanotubes
Article Abstract:
The static and frequency-dependent polarizability tensors of a series of (5,5)- and (9,0)- carbon nanotubes are calculated. It was found that the interaction model is in good agreement with the self-consistent field calculations and can be used to predict the polarizability tensors of carbon nanotubes.
