Enhancing the Strength, Toughness, and Electrical Conductivity of Twist-Spun Carbon Nanotube Yarns by π Bridging

Liang, X.; Gao, Y.; Duan, J.; Liu, Z.; Fang, Shaoli; Baughman, Ray H.; Jiang, L.; Cheng, Q. (Elsevier Ltd, 2019-05-10)

The weak interfacial interactions between carbon nanotube (CNT) always results in low stress load transfer efficiency in CNT yarns, herein we fabricated strong, highly conducting CNT yarns at room temperature using molecules ...
Sequentially Bridged Graphene Sheets with High Strength, Toughness, and Electrical Conductivity

Wan, S.; Li, Y.; Mu, Jiuke; Aliev, Ali E.; Fang, Shaoli; Kotov, N. A.; Jiang, L.; Cheng, Q.; Baughman, Ray H.

We here show that infiltrated bridging agents can convert inexpensively fabricated graphene platelet sheets into high-performance materials, thereby avoiding the need for a polymer matrix. Two types of bridging agents were ...
Terahertz Surface Plasmon Polaritons on Freestanding Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube Aerogel Sheets

Nguyen, T. D.; Liu, S.; Lima, Marcio Dias; Fang, Shaoli; Baughman, Ray H.; Nahata, A.; Vardeny, Z. V. (2012-05-08)

We demonstrate that multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are capable of supporting surface plasmon-polaritons (SPPs) at terahertz (THz) frequencies. To achieve this, we fabricated sub-100 μm-thick freestanding and highly ...
