Materials Research Society Symposium Proceedings. Volume 675. Nanotubes, Fullerenes, Nanostructured and Disordered Carbon. Symposium Held April 17-20, 2001, San Francisco, California, U.S.A.

Abstract

This symposium, "Nanotubes, Fullerenes, Nanostructured and Disordered Carbon," held April 17-20 at the 20001 MRS Spring Meeting in San Francisco, California, brought together people working in the full range of carbon phases. It covered both ordered solids and molecules and disordered solids. It ranged from the sp2 bonded nanotubes and fullerenes to the sp3 bonded amorphous carbons and diamond. The symposium developed from a symposium on "Amorphous and Nanostructured Carbon" held at the 1999 MRS Fall Meeting, and was also related to the "Nanotubes and Related Materials" symposium held at the 2000 MRS Fall Meeting. The speakers covered a wide range of topics, from structure and growth of fullerenes, to the growth and application of nanotubes, to the growth and uses of diamond-like carbon. A wide range of applications were covered, and the main application described in this book is field emission. This proceedings volume is organized into six sections. The first section deals with fullerenes. The second and third sections deal with the growth and properties of nanotubes. The fourth section deals with field emission, the fifth with diamond-like carbon, and the sixth with diamond.
