Abstract
The GTRI Nanotechnology lab focuses on the study electronic applications of carbon
nanotubes (CNTs). The applications are primarily focused on the use of CNTs to form a 3-D
light-trapping array for novel photovoltaic cells and as a field emission source for Hall Effect
thrusters for satellite propulsion. Other CNT-enabled applications being studied are
electrochemical double layer supercapacitors, batteries and CNT-functionalized fabrics as
well as the use of CNTs in biological applications such as neuronal prosthetics.
