How to make carbon nanotubes at room temperature

Since they are even able to make nanotubes at room temperature now it would not be to much of a stretch of the imagination to consider that mother nature has also made nanotubes.


It is MHO that organisms like fire flies or any other light producing organics use nanotubes to produce luminescence
Does anyone have any other known references to such events?

This break through science WILL change the world from now on and if we can work together and figure out how to make these tubes we can be part of the ground floor discoveries that will help the world out of the OILY rut we now are facing.

Hello Members,   The subject is not as hard as many may be thinking.

Why would we want nanotubes?   It is the most exciting material of the ages on earth.   Has endless possibilities.  Super Conductivity.   Nearly indestructible.  Ground floor opportunitys.  It can answer so many GREEN needs.  AND many many other uses yet undiscovered.   Like, finally we can make test equipment sensitive enough to work with all forms of energy.  Health benefits are sure to follow, so this is a very worthy project to invest our time into. 

We can do this.

Please watch the links and imagine what else these could be used for!

Anyone seeing this please make a comment so I know it is being read.

Hi Hope,

I can see this topic.

Any ideas or documents on how to create nano-tube diodes? If we could make an array of those with a low forward bias we could start creating Beta/Alpha batteries. We could capture the energy from Radon decay which happens naturally in sandstone, granite and marble.

Something like this patent: 4024420 - Deep diode atomic battery

or

Great documents, thanks.

One of the links above shows even a complicated Field Effect Transistor made using nanotubes being constructed using DNA.   So there already are diodes made of nanotubes.   Yes it is a very good thought you have,  but the basic step of making the nano tubes must be handled.

Great documents, thanks.

The carbon nano tube directly converts the photon into electrons.    Millions of ideas to be had with that one!
