Additional information
Theoretical and experimental work that changes the general understanding of how carbon nanotubes conduct electricity, particularly towards their use as interconnect materials. Using Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy we show that the inner and outer shells of a CNT are not independent of each other, as thought previously, leading to a change in the understanding of electronic conductivity. This has led to the continuation of the project at Surrey towards memory storage applications, with an internally funded PhD (L. McCafferty) and has also contributed to a staff position (C. Giusca) at NPL, in the quantum metrology group.
