Additional information
Significance of output:
For the first time a statistical technique is utilised for accurately modelling the variation of bandgap and effective mass in SWCNT with respect to its geometrical properties.
A sample size of 1.5 ×10^5 is used for its validation.
This research described led to a best student paper award in ICICDT 2008. The work also paved a way for the development of a novel solar cell structure with high efficiency by utilising the bandgap variability to absorb large range of the solar spectrum and led to an invitation to contribute a chapter in the book “Nano-Bio Sensing” by Springer.
