Sliding on a Nanotube: Interplay of Friction, Deformations and Structure
Hsiang-Chih Chiu, Beate Ritz, Suenne Kim +3
The frictional properties of individual carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are studied by sliding an atomic force microscopy tip across and along its principle axis. This direction-dependent…

Reversible attachment of platinum alloy nanoparticles to non-functionalized carbon nanotubes
Beate Ritz, Hauke Heller, Anton Myalitsin +7
The formation of monodisperse, tunable sized, alloyed nanoparticles of Ni, Co, or Fe with Pt and pure Pt nanoparticles attached to carbon nanotubes has been investigated. Following…
