Carbon Nanotubes and Graphene - Research and Applications

As it is, nanotubes are tiny. But researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, have found a way to make these carbon structures even smaller. The size of the tubes, which are used in mass and chemical sensors as well as transistors and oscillators, impart properties that allow for more exacting performance--for instance, the ability to oscillate at higher frequencies or improved conductivity.
