Nanotubes Make Dry Eeg Sensor
Researchers in Spain and the UK have developed a new method for measuring electrical activity in the brain that uses electrodes made from carbon nanotubes. The new technique is as good as conventional electroencephalography (EEG) methods, is safe to use and does not have any side effects, according to the scientists. EEG, which was invented in the 1920s, measures the electrical activity of the brain, usually by recording signals received from an array of electrodes placed on the scalp.... More

Nist Develops Rapid Method For Judging Nanotube Purity
Researchers at NIST have developed a sensitive new method for rapidly assessing the quality of carbon nanotubes. Initial feasibility tests show that the method not only is faster than the standard analytic technique, but also effectively screens much smaller samples for purity and consistency and better detects sample variability....
