How to roll a nanotube: Demystifying carbon nanotubes` structure control
(PHYSorg.com Nanotechnology)

Pioneering research published in Nature by Professor Feng Ding`s team from the Center for Multidimensional Carbon Materials, within the Institute for Basic Science (IBS), in collaboration with Professor Jin Zhang`s team, at Peking University and colleagues, has demonstrated how to control the synthesis of special tiny carbon cylinders known as carbon nanotubes (CNTs), in order to synthesize horizontal arrays of CNTs with the same structure.
