Journal ArticleDOI
Macroscopic Fibers and Ribbons of Oriented Carbon Nanotubes
Brigitte Vigolo,Alain Pénicaud,Claude Coulon,Cédric Sauder,René Pailler,Catherine Journet,P. Bernier,Philippe Poulin +7 more
TL;DR: A simple method was used to assemble single-walled carbon nanotubes into indefinitely long ribbons and fibers, and the obtained elastic modulus is 10 times higher than the modulus of high-quality bucky paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production of carbon nanotubes
Catherine Journet,P. Bernier +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that carbon nanostructures such as singlewalled and multi-walled nanotubes (SWNTs and MWNTs) or graphitic polyhedral nanoparticles can be produced using various methods, such as electric arc discharge process, the laser ablation method, or the solar tech- nique.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elastic Properties of Single-Wall Nanotubes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a total energy, non-orthogonal, tight-binding parametrisation which is shown to provide results in good agreement both with calculations using higher levels of theory and the available experimental data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macroscopic Fibers and Ribbons of Oriented Carbon Nanotubes.
Brigitte Vigolo,Alain Pénicaud,Claude Coulon,Cédric Sauder,René Pailler,Catherine Journet,P. Bernier,Philippe Poulin +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple method was used to assemble single-walled carbon nanotubes into indefinitely long ribbons and fibers, which can be strongly bent without breaking, and their obtained elastic modulus is 10 times higher than the modulus of high-quality bucky paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elastic and mechanical properties of carbon nanotubes
TL;DR: In this article, a comparative study of carbon and composite single wall nanotubes using a non-orthogonal tight binding formalism is presented, and it is shown that carbon has a higher Young Modulus (1TPa) than any of the studied composite nanotube and of the same order that found for graphene sheets without defect.
