Use carbon nanotubes and graphene for better transparent conductors

Carbon nanotubes sprinkled onto graphene make a transparent conductor that is better than either on their own, according to Aalto University. But not because the graphene acts as a parallel conductor. Instead, temperature-dependent transport measurements indicate that the graphene substrate reduces the tunnelling barrier heights between nanotubes, according to the paper ‘Enhanced tunneling in a ...
