Chiral Carbon Nanotube Films Created by Rice Researchers Exhibit Nonlinear Optical Properties

Chiral Carbon Nanotube Films Created by Rice Researchers Exhibit Nonlinear Optical Propertiesby GOAI Share ToRice University researchers have created large, organized films made entirely of chiral carbon nanotubes and observed significant nonlinear optical properties. The creation of these films may have implications for photonics and optoelectronics. The carbon nanotubes used in the films are nanoscale cylinders with either left- or right-handed helical twists. Scientists have long suspected that these structures possess unique nonlinear optical properties. The successful fabrication of these films allows for further exploration and potential applications of these properties.
