They exhibit extraordinary strength and unique electrical properties, and are efficient conductors of heat. “Carbon nanotubes” (CNTs) are polymers of pure carbon, and exist as single-wall and multi-wall structures. Examples of publications describing carbon nanotubes and their methods of fabrication ...
Carbon neutrality has been proposed as a solution for the current severe energy and climate crisis caused by the overuse of fossil fuels, and machine learning (ML) has exhibited excellent performance in accelerating related research owing to its powerful capacity for big data processing. This review...
Carbon (from Latin carbo 'coal') is a chemical element; it has symbol C and atomic number 6. It is nonmetallic and tetravalent—meaning that its atoms are able to form up to four covalent bonds due to its valence shell exhibiting 4 electrons. It belongs to group 14 of the periodic tabl...
(220) orientation on glass andsiliconwhen thepartial pressureswas increased from 1 to 4Pa[269]. With increasing oxygen flow, thegrain sizeincreased from typically about 10 to about 25nm, and the slight absorption seen in the blue and green disappeared: thetransmittanceexceeded 95% throughout ...
The concentrations of electrons (ns > 0) and holes (ns < 0) can be controlled by the gate voltage between the graphene layer and the heavily doped silicon, through insulating SiO2, over a wide range of –5×1013 < ns < 5×1013 cm–2. It is quite amazing that carriers in a thin ...
Fast forward to today, where microelectronics is based on complex thin films that are typically, but not exclusively, on silicon substrates. These devices may incorporate dozens of chemical elements and many more chemical compounds. One such ...
The most notable examples of such materials developed recently are organic conductors [1] and carbon nanotubes [2]. It has long been particularly tempting to extend the use of the field effect to metals (e.g., to develop all-metallic transistors that could be scaled down to much smaller ...

Preferred concentrations of the additives in a masterbatch range of from 0.1 to 90% by weight, in particular of from 1 to 80% by weight, based on the total weight of the masterbatch. For the purposes of the invention, compounds are compositions comprising a polymer and the additive, in ...
Numerous electronic devices require electrical conductors which are optically transparent to visible light. The transparent electrical conductors function by transmitting electrical power to operate user interfaces like touch screens or to send a signal to a pixel in an LCD display. Transparent conductors ...
