(2011-10-21)Development of nanoscience and nanotechnology requires rapid and robust nanomanufacturing processes to produce nanoscale materials, structures and devices. The dissertation aims to contribute to two major challenging and ...
-
(2011-08-08)The effects of a carbon nanotube (CNT) coating on bubble departure diameter and frequency in pool boiling experiments was investigated and compared to those on a bare silicon wafer. The pool boiling experiments were performed ...
-
(2018-04-30)Composites made of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) and carbon nanotube (CNT) have shown unchanged or even increased thermopower when electrical conductivity was raised by altering the ...
-
(2009-06-02)The present work provides a micromechanics approach based on the generalized self-consistent composite cylinders method as a non-Eshelby approach towards for assessing the impact of carbon nanotubes on the multi-functional ...
-
(2012-01-20)Nanoparticles (NPs) of different geometries, including 0-dimeansional (0-D) ZnO QDs, 1-D carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and 2-D α-zirconium phosphate nanoplatelets (ZrP), have been purified and dispersed in various media. The ...
