Carbon Nanotubes and Graphene - Research and Applications

Due to the unique scheme of the energetic levels and high electron affinity energy of and including laser and fullerenes carbon nanotubes, these nanoobjects are widely used for different areas of application display techniques. In the present paper, the attenuation and switching of the laser beam has been shown, based on the features of electrooptical nematic liquid crystal mesophase under condition of the nanoobjects sensitization.
