As indicated by theory and experimental measurements individual carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have very high values of thermal conductivity. One of the challenges is to achieve high thermal conductivity in macroscopic assemblies of CNTs such as fibres, films and composites, paving the way to a wide range of applications. CNT fibres have tremendous potential in succeeding as the future materials for a variety of applications when properties at the nanoscale are translated to their macroscopic assemblies. In this paper we report the measurements of thermal conductivity of continuously spun CNT fibres and its dependence on temperature. Thermal conductivity measurements were performed using in-house built temperature sensing microscope probe. Specific thermal conductivity of CNT fibres showed an order of magnitude advantage over the traditional materials used for heat dissipation. 相似文献

We show that the local temperature dependence of thermalized electron and phonon populations along metallic carbon nanotubes is the main reason behind the nonlinear transport characteristics in the high bias regime. Our model is based on the solution of the Boltzmann transport equation considering both optical and zone boundary phonon emission as well as absorption by charge carriers. It also assumes a local temperature along the nanotube, determined self-consistently with the heat transport equation. By using realistic transport parameters, our results not only reproduce experimental data for electronic transport but also provide a coherent interpretation of thermal breakdown under electric stress. In particular, electron and phonon thermalization prohibits ballistic transport in short nanotubes. 相似文献

We demonstrate the key role of phonon occupation in limiting the high-field ballistic transport in metallic carbon nanotubes. In particular, we provide a simple analytic formula for the electron transport scattering length, which we validate by accurate first principles calculations on (6, 6) and (11, 11) nanotubes. The comparison of our results with the scattering lengths fitted from experimental I-V curves indicates the presence of a nonequilibrium optical phonon heating induced by electron transport. We predict an effective temperature for optical phonons of thousands Kelvin. 相似文献

We discuss the mesoscopic experimental measurements of electron energy dissipation, phonon thermal transport, and thermoelectric phenomena in individual carbon nanotubes. The temperature distributions in electrically heated individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes have been measured with a scanning thermal microscope. The temperature profiles along the tube axis in nanotubes indicate the bulk dissipation of electronic energy to phonons. In addition, thermal conductivity of an individual multiwalled nanotube has been measured using a microfabricated suspended device. The observed thermal conductivity is two orders of magnitude higher than the estimation from previous experiments that used macroscopic mat samples. Finally, we present thermoelectric power (TEP) of individual single walled carbon nanotubes using a novel mesoscopic device. A strong modulation of TEP as a function of the gate electrode was observed. 相似文献

The anomalous thermal transport properties of nanotubes may lead to many important applications, but the mechanisms are still unclear. In this work, we present new governing equations for non-Fourier heat conduction in nanomaterials based on the concept of thermomass. The effective thermal conductivities of nanotubes are therefore predicted which agree very well with the available experimental data. Analysis suggests that the inertial effect of heat and the confined heat flux by nanostructured surfaces are two key mechanisms causing the anomalous temperature and size dependences of effective thermal conductivity of nanotubes. 相似文献

We present transport measurements of ferromagnetically contacted carbon nanotubes. In both single- and multi-walled nanotube devices, a spin valve effect is observed due to spin-polarized transport. In one single-walled nanotube device, the spin-valve effect is suppressed as the influence of Coulomb charging is observed at around 10 K. To help understand the interplay between the Coulomb charging and the spin-polarized transport we investigated the temperature dependence of the carbon nanotube magnetoresistance. 相似文献

We report atomistic simulations for both self- and transport diffusivities of light gases in carbon nanotubes and in two zeolites with comparable pore sizes. We find that transport rates in nanotubes are orders of magnitude faster than in the zeolites we have studied or in any microporous material for which experimental data are available. The exceptionally high transport rates in nanotubes are shown to be a result of the inherent smoothness of the nanotubes. We predict that carbon nanotube membranes will have fluxes that are orders of magnitude greater than crystalline zeolite membranes. 相似文献

Mesoscale simulation of aggregation of imogolite nanotubes from potential of mean force interactions
The aggregation of colloidal clay mineral particles plays an important role in controlling the mechanical and transport properties of soils. Interactions and aggregation of plate-like montmorillonite particles were previously studied with the help of Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation. This paper investigates the aggregation of cylindrical imogolite-like phyllosilicate nanotubes. Nano-scale MD simulations are carried out to find the potential of mean force between two nanotubes. This PMF is then used in a mesoscale simulation that represents interactions between elemental nanotubes through coarse-graining. We investigate the distribution of water molecules around the curved surfaces, and the effects of the surface charge density and tube length on aggregation. Shorter nanotubes were found to form larger stacks. 相似文献

Using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo methods, we study the collective diffusion of helium in carbon nanotubes. The results show that the collective diffusion coefficient(CDC) increases with the dimension of the channel. The collective diffusion coefficient has a linear relationship with the temperature and the concentration. There exist a ballistic transport in short carbon nanotubes and a diffusive transport in long carbon nanotubes. Fick's law has an invalid region in the nanoscale channel. 相似文献

In this paper, transport of liquid mercury under pressure through double-walled carbon nanotubes is studied using classical molecular dynamics simulations in conjunction with a pressure control model. The results indicate that wetting of double-walled carbon nanotubes by mercury occurs above a threshold pressure of liquid mercury. Liquid mercury can be transported through the inner tube of double-walled carbon nanotubes with the continuous increase of its pressure. The threshold pressure of liquid mercury decreases and the transport efficiency increases greatly with enlarging the inner tube size. The space between the two walls of double-walled carbon nanotubes can also transport the liquid mercury while the distance between the two walls is much larger than the radius of the inner tube. Transport efficiency of double-walled carbon nanotubes is a little lower than that of single-walled carbon nanotubes while double-walled carbon nanotubes transport liquid more steadily than single-walled carbon nanotubes. 相似文献

We have developed a new theoretical formalism for phonon transport in nanostructures using the nonequilibrium phonon Green's function technique and have applied it to thermal conduction in defective carbon nanotubes. The universal quantization of low-temperature thermal conductance in carbon nanotubes can be observed even in the presence of local structural defects such as vacancies and Stone-Wales defects, since the long wavelength acoustic phonons are not scattered by local defects. At room temperature, however, thermal conductance is critically affected by defect scattering since incident phonons are scattered by localized phonons around the defects. We find a remarkable change from quantum to classical features for the thermal transport through defective carbon nanotubes with increasing temperature. 相似文献

Superconducting properties of carbon nanotubes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Metallic single wall carbon nanotubes have attracted much interest as 1D quantum wires combining a low carrier density and a high mobility. It was believed for a long time that low temperature transport was exclusively dominated by the existence of unscreened Coulomb interactions leading to an insulating behavior at low temperature. However experiments have also shown evidence of superconductivity in carbon nanotubes. We distinguish two fundamentally different physical situations. When carbon nanotubes are connected to superconducting electrodes, they exhibit proximity induced superconductivity with supercurrents which strongly depend on the transmission of the electrodes. On the other hand intrinsic superconductivity was also observed in suspended ropes of carbon nanotubes and recently in doped individual tubes. These experiments indicate the presence of attractive interactions in carbon nanotubes which overcome Coulomb repulsion at low temperature, and enables investigation of superconductivity in a 1D limit never explored before.

Adsorption and desorption of an oxygen molecule on carbon nanotubes are investigated using density functional calculations. Several precursor states exist at the edge of armchair nanotubes, whereas an exothermic adsorption takes place at the edge of zigzag nanotubes. We also estimate desorption barriers of a CO molecule from nanotubes as well as fullerenes and amorphous phases. Our calculations suggest that carbon nanotubes can survive selectively during the oxidative etching process with a precise control of annealing temperature, in good agreement with experimental results of purification process of carbon nanotubes. 相似文献

This review summarizes the current studies of the thermal transport properties of one-dimensional(1D) carbon nanomaterials and nanoarchitectures. Considering different hybridization states of carbon, emphases are laid on a variety of 1D carbon nanomaterials, such as diamond nanothreads, penta-graphene nanotubes, supernanotubes, and carbyne. Based on experimental measurements and simulation/calculation results, we discuss the dependence of the thermal conductivity of these 1D carbon nanomaterials on a wide range of factors, including the size effect, temperature influence, strain effect, and others. This review provides an overall understanding of the thermal transport properties of 1D carbon nanomaterials and nanoarchitectures, which paves the way for effective thermal management at nanoscale. 相似文献

A procedure for optimizing a field-emission cathode based on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is developed. An array of identical equidistant
vertical CNTs is considered. The optimization procedure takes into account the effect of screening of an electric field by
neighboring nanotubes by solving a Laplace equation and the thermal instability of nanotubes, which limits the emission current
density of a nanotube, by solving a heat conduction equation. The relation between the emission current and the applied voltage
is described by the Fowler-Nordheim relationship containing the CNT tip temperature as a parameter. Upon optimization, the
optimum distance between CNTs that ensures the maximum emission current density is calculated. The calculation results demonstrate
that this parameter depends substantially on both the applied voltage and the nanotube geometry. These dependences are weakly
sensitive to the choice of the transport coefficients (thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity) of nanotubes. 相似文献

We investigate correlated electronic transport in single-walled carbon nanotubes with two intramolecular tunneling barriers. We suggest that below a characteristic temperature the long-range nature of the Coulomb interaction becomes crucial to determine the temperature dependence of the maximum G(max) of the conductance peak. Correlated sequential tunneling dominates transport yielding the power law G(max) proportional, variant T(alpha(end-end)-1), typical for tunneling between the ends of two Luttinger liquids. Our predictions are in agreement with recent measurements. 相似文献
