Carbon Nanotube Computing?
American Institute of Physics (AIP)In the Journal of Applied Physics, a group of researchers from Durham University in the U.K. and the University of São Paulo-USP in Brazil describes using single-walled carbon nanotube composites (SWCNTs) as a material in “unconventional” computing. By studying the mechanical and electrical properties of the materials, they discovered a correlation between SWCNT concentration/viscosity/conductivity and the computational capability of the composite.
