DESCRIPTION
Scientists from the NUST MISIS Laboratory of Inorganic Nanomaterials and international colleagues have proved that it's possible to change the structural and conductive properties of nanotubes by stretching them. This finding has applications in electronics and high-precision sensors such as microprocessors and detectors. The research article has been published in Ultramicroscopy.
