摘要
Between the lines: Functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) can be aligned in the hexagonal columnar mesophase of discotic liquid crystals (DLCs). The thermophysical properties of SWNT-DLC composites indicate inclusion of SWNTs in the supramolecular order of DLCs (see picture). (Figure Presented) © 2007 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
