We investigate theoretically the high frequency complex conductivity in carbon nanotubes that are stimulated axially by a strong inhomogeneous electric field of the formUsing the kinetic approach based on Boltzmann's transport equation with constant relaxation time approximation and the energy spectrum of the electron in the tight-binding approximation, together with Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook collision integral, we predict high-frequency nonlinear effects along the axial and the circumferential directions of the carbon nanotubes that may be useful for the generation of high frequency radiation in the carbon nanotubes.

“…[62] Arc discharge was the first method available for the production of both MWNT [63,64] and SWNT. [65,66] MWNT produced by arc discharge are long and straight tubes closed at both ends with graphitic walls running parallel to the tube axis. To achieve SWNT the electrodes are doped with a small amount of metallic catalyst particles such as cobalt, iron or nickel mixed with graphite powder results in a deposit containing SWNT.…”

Nanocomposite polymers have tremendous potential to enhance the performance of macromolecular materials used for composite matrices. Effective utilization of carbon nanotubes in composite applications depends strongly on the ability to homogeneously disperse them throughout the matrix without destroying their integrity. This work looks at the fabrication for montmorillonite, fullerenes and nanotubes polymer/nanocomposites tailored to fit aerospace needs. Further insight is also given on developments in nanofibers and nanotubes production for good load transfer on the composite systems.

Introduction: Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer and the largest cancer killer among women in most developing countries including India. Although, various drugs have been developed for cervical cancer, treatment with these drugs often results in a number of undesirable side effects, toxicity and multidrug resistance (MDR). Also, the outcomes for cervical cancer patients remain poor after surgery and chemo radiation. Methods: A literature search (for drugs and delivery systems against cervical cancer) was performed on PubMed and through Google. The present review discuss about various methods including its current conventional treatment with special reference to recent advances in delivery systems encapsulating various anticancer drugs and natural plant products for targeting towards cervical cancer. The role of photothermal therapy, gene therapy and radiation therapy against cervical cancer is also discussed. Results: Systemic/targeted drug delivery systems including liposomes, nanoparticles, hydrogels, dendrimers etc. and localized drug delivery systems like cervical patches, films, rings etc. are safer than the conventional chemotherapy which has further been proved by the several drug delivery systems undergoing clinical trials. Conclusion: Novel approaches for the aggressive treatment of cervical cancer will optimistically result in decreased side effects as well as toxicity, frequency of administration of existing drugs, to overcome MDR and to increase the survival rates.
