Tiny bubbles snap carbon nanotubes like twigs |
July 10, 2012
A computer model shows that long nanotubes bend and snap like a twig when blasted with ultrasonic energy. The research finds that short and long nanotubes behave differently during sonication. The discovery answers a longstanding question about the origin of competing power laws that were found in experiments on cutting nanotubes by sonication.
