Taming quantum interference: a route to high electrical conductance in carbon nanotube assemblies
Teresa Kulka, Agnieszka E. Lekawa-Raus, John S. Bulmer +6
Miniaturized electronics require lightweight conductors that maintain high conductance under demanding conditions. CNT networks are promising candidates, but their transport is gov…
Quantum Limits of Electronic Transport in Nanostructured Macroscopic Conductors
Agnieszka E. Lekawa-Raus, John S. Bulmer, Teresa Kulka +7
Macroscopic assemblies of one- and two-dimensional materials promise to translate nanoscale electronic properties into device-scale performance, yet the microscopic principles gove…
Adjudicating Conduction Mechanisms in High Performance Carbon Nanotube Fibers
John Bulmer, Chris Kovacs, Thomas Bullard +15
The performance of carbon nanotube (CNT) cables, a contender for copper-wire replacement, is tied to its metallic and semi-conducting-like conductivity responses with temperature;…
Interpreting Aqueous Two-Phase Extraction of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes with Highly Versatile Nonionic Polymers
Blazej Podlesny, Lukasz Czapura, Oussama Er-Riyahi +2
The development of efficient separation methods is essential for the production of fine chemicals and materials. Among them, the aqueous two-phase extraction (ATPE) allows for the…
Polar Express: Rapid Functionalization of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes in High Dipole Moment Media
Dominik Just, Ryszard Siedlecki, Maciej Krzywiecki +5
Fluorescent semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) hold considerable promise for photonics. Furthermore, the optical characteristics of the material can be signific…
