Measuring thermal properties of materials is not only of fundamental importance in
understanding the transport processes of energy carriers (electrons and phonons in solids) …

Polymer/carbon nanotube (CNT) composites are expected to have good processability
characteristics of the polymer and excellent functional properties of the CNTs. The critical …

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are nearly ideal one-dimensional (1D) systems, with diameters of
only 1–3 nm and lengths that can be on the scale of centimetres. Depending on the …

Polymer composites are one of the most attractive near‐term means to exploit the unique
properties of carbon nanotubes and graphene. This is particularly true for composites aimed …

This paper reviews recent studies conducted on carbon nanotube/polymer composites.
Carbon nanotubes are promising new materials for blending with polymers with potential to …

Carbon nanotubes, with their extraordinary mechanical and unique electronic properties,
have garnered much attention in the past five years. With a broad range of potential …

Carbon nanotubes are molecular-scale tubes of graphitic carbon with outstanding
properties. They are among the stiffest and strongest fibres known, with Young's moduli as …

Interaction of light pulses of various durations and intensities with nanoscale photonic
structures plays an important role in many applications of nanophotonics for high‐density …

This paper describes a new class of saturable absorber device based on single-wall carbon
nanotube (SWNT)-the saturable absorber incorporating nano tube (SAINT). The device …

We demonstrate mode-locking of a thulium-doped fiber laser operating at 1.94 μm, using a
graphene-polymer based saturable absorber. The laser outputs 3.6 ps pulses, with∼ 0.4 nJ …
