MIT Uses Nanotubes to Detect Deadly Gases. MIT researchers are designing sensors that use carbon nanotubes to detect hazardous gases. Using carbon nanotubes, MIT chemical engineers have designed the most sensitive electronic detector yet for sensing deadly gases such as the nerve agent sarin. This sensor could prove to be critical in the protection against bioterrorism. The sensor has demonstrated high sensitivity in detecting minute traces of molecules mimicking nerve toxins. It could also detect mustard gas, ammonia, and so on ...

Shankar Ghosh, A. K. Sood, N. Kumar, Carbon Nanotube Flow Sensors, Science 14 February 2003:Vol. 299. no. 5609, pp. 1042 - 1044 Abstract: We report that the flow of a liquid on single-walled carbon nanotube bundles induces a voltage in the sample along the direction of the flow. The voltage that was produced fit a logarithmic velocity dependence over nearly six decades of velocity. The magnitude of the voltage depended sensitively on the ionic conductivity and on the polar nature of the liquid. Our measurements suggest that the dominant mechanism responsible for this highly nonlinear response involves a direct forcing of the free charge carriers in the nanotubes by the fluctuating Coulombic field of the liquid flowing past the nanotubes. We propose an explanation based on pulsating asymmetric ratchets. Our work highlights the device potential for nanotubes as sensitive flow sensors and for energy conversion. |
