carbon nanotubes

n. (lang=en carbon nanotube)

Usage examples of "carbon nanotubes".

For instance: carbon nanotubes, in some ways the results of our abilities to work at the molecular level due to computing research, are far stronger than steel and may lead to new materials with exceptional qualities.

The outer web of carbon nanotubes was the processing area of the computer.

However, if we consider a cable made of carbon nanotubes at a strength-to-weight ratio a thousand times better than steel, then a self—.

The wings were not, as he'd thought, just flesh, blood, skin and bone, but were a complex web of far more advanced materials including biologically excreted carbon nanotubes.

It has to be an amazingly strong cable: we don't yet have the technology but 'carbon nanotubes' now being created in the laboratory come close.

The wings and flight-bones were threaded through with a mesh of bioextruded carbon nanotubes, a monomolecule that was enormously strong for its weight.

The inner layer was lined by carbon nanotubes only a nanometer wide, rolled up sheets of graphite with a tensile strength greater than steel.
