“…However, several recent works show the high potential of such SA for high-power operation [71,129]. Polymer nanocomposites allow alignment of SWNTs by their stretching [182] or fabricating with the LangmuirBlodgett technique [212] due to the high anisotropic interaction of SWNTs with light. In aligned SWNTs, absorption reaches the maximum when launched light is polarised parallel to the alignment direction, increasing, therefore, the saturable absorption without raising non-saturable losses.…”

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) possess both remarkable optical properties and high potential for integration in various photonic devices. We overview, here, recent progress in CNT applications in fibre optics putting particular emphasis on fibre lasers. We discuss fabrication and characterisation of different CNTs, development of CNTbased saturable absorbers (CNT-SA), their integration and operation in fibre laser cavities putting emphasis on stateof-the-art fibre lasers, mode locked using CNT-SA. We discuss new design concepts of high-performance ultrafast operation fibre lasers covering ytterbium (Yb), bismuth (Bi), erbium (Er), thulium (Tm) and holmium (Ho)-doped fibre lasers.

“…In this method, which is often called Langmuir-Blodgett technique, a substrate is slowly dipped into a solution of well-dispersed CNTs and then slowly (≤ 1 cm/min) pulled out [78][79][80]. A thin, homogeneous layer is produced of CNTs aligned to the dipping direction.…”

Abstract:This paper reviews major techniques of aligning carbon nanotubes, either during the growth or by the post-growth processing. A number of post-processing alignment techniques are discussed, which employ mechanical stretching, fracture, compression, friction, filtration, fiber drawing, gas flow, liquid crystals, Langmuir-Blodgett technique, acoustic, magnetic and electric fields. The suitability of those techniques to industrial applications is analyzed.

In this investigation, multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) paper consists of MWCNTs and cellulose was fabricated by traditional paper-making method. It was applied directly as negative electrode in°exible lithium ion battery to replace ordinary electrode which is combined with anode material and current collector. The electrochemical performances of the as-produced MWCNT paper (AMP) and carbonized MWCNT paper (CMP) were evaluated in this study. The morphology and structure of the MWCNT papers were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The electrochemical performance of the battery was operated by cell test and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurement. The charging and discharging results indicated that the CMP behaves with higher capacity than AMP. And the EIS analysis showed that a lower charge transfer resistance can be obtained in the CMP. The excellent electrochemical performance veri¯es the feasibility of MWCNT papers as a promising candidate for the anode in°exible lithium ion battery.
