    • Evaluating the purity of single-wall nanotube materials 

      Dillon, Anne; Gennett, Thomas; Parilla, Philip; Alleman, Jeffrey; Jones, K.; Heben, Michael (Materials Research Society: 2000 Fall Proceedings Symposium A: Nanotubes and Related Materials, 2001)
      Carbon single-wall nanotubes (SWNTs) have a variety of unique physical, electronic and mechanical properties. However, the SWNTs must be thoroughly purified if they are to be used in the wide array of projected applications ...
    • Formation of single-wall carbon nanotube superbundles 

      Gennett, Thomas; Dillon, Anne; Alleman, Jeffrey; Jones, K.; Hasoon, F.; Heben, Michael (The American Chemical Society: Chemistry of Materials, 2000-03)
      Since their discovery in 1993, carbon single-wall nanotubes (SWNTs) have been of great interest because of their expected novel electronic, mechanical, and gas adsorption properties. Difficulties arise in measuring these ...
    • Fuel cell applications of nanotube-metal supported catalysts 

      Gennett, Thomas; Landi, Brian; Elich, J.; Jones, K.; Alleman, Jeffrey; Lamarre, P.; Morris, R.; Raffaelle, Ryne; Heben, Michael (Materials Research Society Proceedings Fall 2002: Materials for Fuel Cells and Fuel Processors, 2002-12-02)
      Novel carbon materials with nanometer dimensions are of potentially significant importance for a number of advanced technological applications. Within this report we describe the results for the electrochemical characterization ...
    • Laser synthesis of single-wall carbon nanotubes utilizing high temperature induction heating. 

      Gennett, Thomas; Dillon, Anne; Alleman, Jeffrey; Jones, K.; Parilla, Philip; Heben, Michael (Materials Research Society Proceedings: Nanotubes and Related Materials, 2001)
      An inductive heating system was used to control the temperature of the target during laser synthesis of SWNTs. The position of the target relative to the heating coil, the type of catalyst metals and the synthesis temperatures ...
    • Rapid, room temperature, high-density hydrogen adsorption on single-walled carbon nanotubes at atmospheric pressure assisted by a metal alloy 

      Heben, Michael; Dillon, Anne; Gennett, Thomas; Alleman, Jeffrey; Parilla, Philip; Jones, K.; Hornyak, G. (Materials Research Society 2000 Fall Meeting: Symposium A: Nanotubes and Related Materials, 2001)
      Laser-generated, carbon single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs) adsorb hydrogen in a matter of minutes at room temperature and atmospheric pressure in the presence of a Ti-6Al-4V metal alloy. The unusual hydrogen adsorption ...
    • A simple and complete purification of single-walled carbon nanotube materials 

      Dillon, Anne; Gennett, Thomas; Jones, K.; Alleman, Jeffrey; Parilla, Philip; Heben, Michael (Wiley: Advanced Materials, 1999-11)
    • Systematic inclusion of defects in pure carbon single-wall nanotubes and their effect on the Raman D-band 

      Dillon, Anne; Parilla, Philip; Alleman, Jeffrey; Gennett, Thomas; Jones, K.; Heben, Michael (Elsevier: Chemical Physics Letters, 2005-01-11)
      The Raman D-band feature (∼1350 cm[-][1]) is examined with 2.54 eV excitation for pure bulk carbon single-wall nanotube samples before and after treatments that increase defect densities. Upon employing mass-transport-limited ...
