Scientists Find Way for Mass Production of Near-zigzag Carbon Nanotubes

Researchers from the Institute of Physics (IOP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) reported a method for submilligram-scale preparation of multiple single-chirality near-zigzag carbon nanotubes such as (9, 1), (9, 2), (10, 2) and (11, 1) nanotubes. This new technique breaks through the bottleneck of mass production of single-chirality near-zigzag single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), and...
