Abstract
In this chapter, an attempt is made to introduce carbon nanotubes and the science used to investigate them. This field is progressing at an exponential rate, with a wide variety of research articles and book chapters appearing in the literature every year. Research in this direction is now meeting the industry standards and some promising devices are ready to enter into the market in near future. This chapter can be a great resource for anyone new to carbon nanotube research. It can also introduce the experienced researcher to subjects outside his or her area of study. This chapter can be useful to the undergraduates and post-graduate students who are interested to pursue science and a career in carbon nanomaterials research.
Keywords: Application of carbon nanotubes, Carbon nanotubes, Functionalization of carbon nanotubes, Structure of carbon nanotubes.
