Carbon Nanotube (CNT) Description:

a) Electrical conductivity -- probably the best conductor of electricity on a nanoscale level that can ever be possible.

b) Thermal conductivity -- comparable to diamond along the tube axis.

c) Mechanical -- probably the stiffest, strongest, and toughest fiber that can ever exist.

d) Chemistry of carbon -- can be reacted and manipulated with the richness and flexibility of other carbon molecules. Carbon is the basis of most materials we use every day.

e) Molecular perfection -- essentially free of defects.

f) Self-assembly -- strong van der Waals attraction leads to spontaneous roping of many nanotubes. Important in certain applications.
