Papers

1. Carbon Nanotubes--the Route Toward ApplicationsScience · 2002 · 10,280 citations

   Many potential applications have been proposed for carbon nanotubes, including conductive and high-strength composites; energy storage and energy conversion devices; sensors; field emission displays and radiation sources; hydrogen storage media; and nanometer-sized semiconductor devices, probes, and interconnects. Some of these…

2. Electronic Confinement and Coherence in Patterned Epitaxial GrapheneScience · 2006 · 5,557 citations

   Ultrathin epitaxial graphite was grown on single-crystal silicon carbide by vacuum graphitization. The material can be patterned using standard nanolithography methods. The transport properties, which are closely related to those of carbon nanotubes, are dominated by the single epitaxial graphene…
