Molecular dynamics simulations provide evidence of the divergent nature of the material’s thermal conductivity.

Researchers created a sprayable, waterborne automotive coating that absorbs 99. 9% of visible light, producing an ultra-black ...

The effective dispersion of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is critical to their commercial success in applications such as energy storage and polymer composites. Their high aspect ratio and strong van der ...

QUT researchers have overcome a challenge that has limited next-generation energy-harvesting materials for more than two decades, opening the door to more powerful wearable electronics and new ways of ...

Carbon nanotubes are one technology that many observers believe hasn't quite lived up to the extreme hype that surrounded them when they first appeared on the scene in the late 1990s. At that time, ...
