Monica de Andrade, Dept. of Material Science, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Escola de Engenharia: "Electrical Conductivity of Carbon Nanotube Networks"
Thursday, July 22, 2010 11am in ECSS 3.503
"The high aspect ratio of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) associated with the high electrical conductivity of their networks make them interesting for many applications. CNTs pure
networks can be used in antielectrostatic coatings, electrochromic or electrically
heated windshields, energy applications, electromagnetic screening and touch panels,
sensors, optoelectronics." read more
Elena del Corro, Dept. of Phys. Chem., Universidad Complutense de Madrid: "Resistance of Aligned Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes Under Pressure"
Thursday, July 15, 2010 2-3pm in ECSN 2.126
"Carbon nanotubes have become a research focus due to their exceptional mechanical and electronic properties. High pressure has been demonstrated to be an important probe into the electronic structure of carbon materials." read more
