Response to “Comment on the Effect of Stress Transfer Within Double-Walled Carbon Nanotubes upon Their Ability to Reinforce Composites”
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of stress transfer within double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWNT) upon their ability to reinforce composites has been reported, and it has been found that the stress transfer from the outer to the inner walls in DWNT in composites is poor, such that inner walls are virtually unstressed during both tensile and compressive deformation.

Designing Catalysts for Chirality‐Selective Synthesis of Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes: Past Success and Future Opportunity
Maoshuai He,Maoshuai He,Shuchen Zhang,Qianru Wu,Han Xue,Xin Benwu,Dan Wang,Dan Wang,Jin Zhang +8 more
TL;DR: This review seeks to extend the knowledge about chirality-selective synthesis of SWNTs by clarifying the energetically favored SWNT cap nucleation and the threshold step for SWNT growth, which describes how the tube-catalyst interface affects both the nucleus energy and the new carbon atom incorporation.

Influence of the concentration and nature of carbon nanotubes on the mechanical properties of AA5083 aluminium alloy matrix composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of the carbon nanotube concentration on the composite Young's modulus and yield strength was studied, which leads to an estimation of the nanotubes Young's aspect ratio using analytical models.

Raman Spectrum of Graphite
F. Tuinstra,J. L. Koenig +1 more
TL;DR: Raman spectra are reported from single crystals of graphite and other graphite materials as mentioned in this paper, and the Raman intensity of this band is inversely proportional to the crystallite size and is caused by a breakdown of the k-selection rule.

TL;DR: At pH less than 5, the absorption and emission spectra of individual nanotubes show evidence of band gap–selective protonation of the side walls of the tube, which is readily reversed by treatment with base or ultraviolet light.

Unusually High Thermal Conductivity of Carbon Nanotubes
TL;DR: An unusually high value, lambda approximately 6600 W/m K, is suggested for an isolated (10,10) nanotube at room temperature, comparable to the thermal conductivity of a hypothetical isolated graphene monolayer or diamond.
