The Institute of Nanotechnology's newsletter keeps you up to date with the latest information on courses, conferences, publications and other features of interest from the world of nanotechnology.

 
Features:
    
  • Webinar: An Introduction to Raman Spectroscopy as it Applies to Carbon Nanotechnology >>
    October 27 at 9 am EDT (13:00 UTC/GMT)
    October 27 at 4 pm EDT (20:00 UTC/GMT)

    Carbon nanomaterials are ideally suited for characterization by Raman spectroscopy. Raman spectroscopy can quickly and easily distinguish amorphous carbon, graphene, multi-wall, and single-wall carbon nanotubes.

    Raman is sensitive to small changes in carbon structure and is excellent at quickly confirming CNT starting materials, or in verifying that processing steps have not damaged the CNTs.

    Our live webinar demonstrates how this easy to use technique has rapidly become an indispensible tool for anyone developing new applications for carbon nanotubes or other carbon nanomaterials. The webinar is be one hour in length and is presented free of charge.

    Who Should Attend?
    Nanotechnologists, Materials Engineers, Carbon Nanotube Suppliers, Nanomaterials Processors, Sub-system Integrators, Finished Goods Manufacturers
