Nanotube molecular wires as chemical sensors
Jing Kong,Nathan R. Franklin,Chongwu Zhou,Michael Chapline,Shu Peng,Kyeongjae Cho,Hongjie Dai +6 more
TL;DR: The nanotubes sensors exhibit a fast response and a substantially higher sensitivity than that of existing solid-state sensors at room temperature and the mechanisms of molecular sensing with nanotube molecular wires are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Percolation and Conduction
TL;DR: In this article, an extension of percolation theory to treat transport is described, and a general expression for the conductance of such networks is derived, which relates to the spin-stiffness coefficient of dilute ferromagnet.
