Carbon Nanotube
Known as carbon nanotubes or buckytubes, these cylindrical carbon molecules have novel properties which make them potentially useful in many applications in nanotechnology, electronics, optics, and other fields of materials science, as well as potential uses in architectural fields. They exhibit extraordinary strength and unique electrical properties, and are efficient thermal conductors. This is again another demonstration of how an extremely complex molecular structure can be conveyed to children of all ages in a palatable format. This is only a sample of the content available.
