Electrical properties of single-wall carbon nanotube-polymer composite films
Abstract
The electrical properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) embedded in a poly(3-octylthiophene) matrix have been investigated as a function of SWNT concentration. The electrical conductivity and its temperature dependence were measured as a function of the SWNT concentration. As the nanotube concentration increased from 0to20wt%, the conductivity of the resulting films is dramatically increased by six orders of magnitude. The enhancement in conductivity can be explained by means of a three dimension simple percolation path theory, resulting in an estimated threshold of 4wt%. The temperature dependence of the SWNT conductivity mat obeys a three-dimensional variable range hopping. In contrast, the polymer-nanotube composite conductivity follows a fluctuation induced tunneling model. The main divergence is that in the polymer-nanotube composite, the nanotubes are coated with polymer, which acts a barrier in bundle to bundle hopping.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
