Carbon nanotubes [electronic resource] : methods and protocols / edited by Kannan Balasubramanian, Marko Burghard.

Due to their rare combination of high chemical stability, exceptional optical and electrical properties, high surface-to-volume ratio, and high aspect ratio, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have made an enormous impact on materials science, molecular biology, biomedicine, and bioanalytical chemistry. Carbon...
