Abstract

The electromechanical actuation of macroscopic carbon nanotube (CNT) structures, including single and multi walled CNT mats and aligned ribbons, is analyzed and compared. From experimental evidence, actuation due to quantum chemical and electrostatic effects can be distinguished. Their respective contribution to the total actuation depends on two key parameters, namely Young’s modulus and charge density. While mechanical energy densities of actuated structures are appreciable, electromechanical conversion efficiencies are found to be impractically low.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
