Why is it important?
Due to its huge abundance as by-product of bio-waste, low price availability and better performance in electronic property as compare to existing material like silicon, it has lot of importance.
Perspectives
In material science, CNT has a lot of application in electronic industry. It may be replacement of existing semiconductor silicon. Discovery of carbon tube is great achievement in electronic industry and is great pleasure for us.
