TG003 Issues in Carbon Nanotubes III: Adsorption and Transport
OverviewWe invite papers dealing with experimental or theoretical or simulational studies of gases or liquids interacting with carbon nanotubes. Topics of interest include adsorption isotherms, characterization of the porous structure of the nanotubes, phase transitions, confinement and dimensionality effects, heats of adsorption, heat capacity, adsorption related to sensors, transport of gases or liquids through nanotubes, interaction of biological molecules with nanotubes, and related issues.
