This paper reviews progress that has been made in the use of Raman spectroscopy to study
graphene and carbon nanotubes. These are two nanostructured forms of sp2 carbon …

Carbon nanotubes are unique tubular structures of nanometer diameter and large
length/diameter ratio. The nanotubes may consist of one up to tens and hundreds of …

Raman spectroscopy is the inelastic scattering of light by matter. Being highly sensitive to
the physical and chemical properties of materials, as well as to environmental effects that …

Carbon nanotubes are exceptionally interesting from a fundamental research point of view.
Many concepts of one-dimensional physics have been verified experimentally such as …

Crystallization behavior of melt-blended polypropylene (PP)/single wall carbon nanotube
(SWNT) composites has been studied using optical microscopy and differential scanning …

We observe infrared laser excited photoconductivity from a single carbon nanotube
incorporated as the channel of an ambipolar field-effect transistor (FET). Electron− hole pairs …

Silicone based elastomers have been mixed with single-wall carbon nanotubes or larger
carbon nanofibrils. Tensile tests show a dramatic enhancement of the initial modulus of the …

The crystallization kinetics and resulting morphology of polyethylene (PE) in the presence of
single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) are investigated in isotropic and aligned composites …

Graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are atomically precise stripes of graphene with tunable
electronic properties, making them promising for room-temperature switching applications …

The electronic properties of p-doped single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) bulk samples
were studied by temperature-dependent resistivity and thermopower, optical reflectivity, and …
