Nanotubes grown on plastic
Abstract:
Researchers from the University of Cambridge in England have devised a way to grow vertical forests of carbon nanotubes on flexible plastic. The combination of nanoscale electronic components and a plastic substrate could enable applications ranging from flexible electronics like wearable computer displays to new types of fuel cells, according to the researchers.
