Nanotubes in vacuum are more responsive to light
Abstract:
Researchers at the University of California, Riverside, US, have found that the electrical conductivity of single-walled carbon nanotubes changes much more in response to light when the nanotubes are in a vacuum. The effect could be useful in using nanotubes as infrared sensors for thermal imaging, spectroscopy and infrared astronomy.
