CARBON exhibits a unique ability to form a wide range of structures. In an inert atmosphere
it condenses to form hollow, spheroidal fullerenes 1–4 . Carbon deposited on the hot tip of …

Pores of molecular dimensions can adsorb large quantities of gases owing to the enhanced
density of the adsorbed material inside the pores 1 , a consequence of the attractive …

Over recent decades, hydrocarbon concentrations have been augmented in soil and water,
mainly derived from accidents or operations that input crude oil and petroleum into the …

The intershell spacing of multi-walled carbon nanotubes was determined by analyzing the
high resolution transmission electron microscopy images of these nanotubes. For the …

We used the atomic force microscope to manipulate and unfold individual molecules of the
titin I27 domain and reconstructed its free energy surface using Jarzynski’s equality. The free …

The structure of multilayer carbon nanotubes is studied using digital image analysis to interpret
high resolution TEM lattice images containing 002 and 100 fringes, in comparision with …

Macroscopic quantities of single-layer carbon nanotubes have recently been synthesized
by cocondensing atomic carbon and iron group or lanthanide metal vapors in an inert gas …

Molecular nanowires inside single-walled carbon nanotubes are produced by capillary
filling. Bismuth was drawn into single-walled carbon nanotubes, where it formed single-crystal …

carbon nanotubes. The Journal of Chemical Physics 2000, 113 (11) , 4763-4766. …

We have synthesized single-layer carbon nanotubes by co-vaporizing cobalt with carbon in
an arc fullerene generator and have identified conditions that lead to high yields. The …
