Bacteria produce semiconducting nanotubes
Article Abstract:
Researchers from Korea and the United States have discovered semi-conducting nanotubes made by living bacteria. Arsenic-sulfide nanotubes that have unique physical and chemical properties are produced by the bacterium Shewanella. It is believed that this discovery may lead to cheaper and more environmentally friendly manufacture of electronic materials.
