Nanotube technology
Nanotube technology. Computer artwork of four cylindrical fullerenes (carbon nanotubes) of varying size, with the smaller ones nested inside the larger ones. A possible application of such a structure is to have the nanotubes telescope in and out and oscillate at a high frequency, forming a nanoscale radio transmitter. The hexagonal carbon structure of the nanotubes is shown here. Fullerenes are a structural form (allotrope) of carbon. Theoretically, a wide range of molecular shapes can be engineered at the molecular level using fullerenes. Such structures are being investigated for a wide range of technological and medical uses

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the incredible potential of nanotube technology. In this computer artwork, we are presented with four cylindrical fullerenes, or carbon nanotubes, each varying in size. What makes this structure fascinating is that the smaller tubes are nested inside the larger ones. The hexagonal carbon structure of these nanotubes is clearly depicted here, highlighting their unique properties. One possible application for such a structure is to utilize its telescoping and high-frequency oscillation capabilities to create a nanoscale radio transmitter. This exemplifies how molecular engineering using fullerenes can lead to an array of innovative technological advancements. Beyond electronics and engineering, fullerenes offer immense promise in various fields including medicine. Researchers are actively exploring these structures for medical applications due to their remarkable molecular properties. The ability to engineer diverse molecular shapes at the atomic level opens up endless possibilities for developing advanced materials and targeted therapies. Science Photo Library has beautifully captured this intricate illustration that represents the intersection of chemistry, materials science, and nanotechnology. It serves as a reminder of humanity's continuous quest for scientific breakthroughs by harnessing nature's building blocks on a minuscule scale.
