  • Fabrication of carbon nanoribbons from carbon nanotube arrays
    Patent number: 10646846
    Abstract: Inter-allotropic transformations of carbon are provided using moderate conditions including alternating voltage pulses and modest temperature elevation. By controlling the pulse magnitude, small-diameter single-walled carbon nanotubes are transformed into larger-diameter single-walled carbon nanotubes, multi-walled carbon nanotubes of different morphologies, and multi-layered graphene nanoribbons.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 14, 2015
    Date of Patent: May 12, 2020
    Assignees: Northeastern University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
    Inventors: Yung Joon Jung, Hyun Young Jung, Swastik Kar, Chi Won Ahn, Mildred Dresselhaus, Paulo Antonio Trindade Araujo
