Captain, is that transparent aluminum? No, Scotty...
Transparent carbon nanotube sheets createdDALLAS, Aug. 18 (UPI) -- A University of Texas at Dallas-led research team and an Australian colleague have produced strong, transparent carbon nanotube sheets.
The transparent carbon nanotube sheets are stronger than the same-weight steel sheets and have demonstrated applicability for organic light-emitting displays, low-noise electronic sensors, artificial muscles, conducting appliques and broad-band polarized light sources that can be switched in one ten-thousandths of a second....
