Electrowetting of aligned carbon nanotube films

Article Abstract:

Electrowetting of aligned carbon nanotube (CNT) films is investigated by the sessile drop method by dispensing deionized (DI) water or 0.03 M NaCl droplets onto aligned CNT films assembled on a copper substrate. The electrowetting strategy might be invoked to controllably reduce or tailor the interfacial tension between CNTs and high-surface-tension organic monomers when infiltrating the monomers into prealigned nanotube films for preparation of CNT-reinforced composites.

A theoretical investigation of charge transfer in several substituted acridinium ions

Article Abstract:

The calculations for various properties of the ground and excited states of several arylamine-substituted acridinium ion systems are presented. The charge shift (CSh) calculations indicate that there is strong electronic coupling in the systems over a wide range of torsional angles.
