Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The electrical and thermal conduction properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and their effects from external factors were analyzed to control the conduction and to improve their functionality. Based on the fact that the properties of SWCNTs are sensitive to strain, temperature, and the dielectric constant of the surrounding area, we succeeded in controlling the conduction properties by directly synthesizing a hexagonal boron nitride layer on the outer surface of single-walled CNTs as a surface modification and by controlling doping with ionic liquids. We have also developed a new technology for fabricating high-quality single-wall CNT thin films, and have made significant progress toward the application of CNTs in electronic devices.
