[17p-C303-1] [INVITED] Industrialization of Single Walled Carbon Nanotube - Features, Properties, and Applications

Kenji Hata1 (1.AIST)

Keywords:carbon nanotube

Even after 25 years following the elucidation of the carbon nanotube (CNT), only a few mainstream applications have reached the market. For this very purpose, AIST has established the CNT Application Research Center whose primary mission is to support the growth of a CNT industry. Prior to the Center, Prof. Sumio Iijima had been guiding the CNT research in AIST and developed a number of important core technologies, such as Super-growth CVD (water-assisted CVD) and e-Dips CVD, from which various new and promising applications have been demonstrated.In this presentation, I will talk about our strategy and ongoing efforts in the aforementioned direction that we believe would serve as an important route in developing CNT applications.
