Aligned Carbon Nanotube Tape for Sensor Technology
Status: Completed
Start Date: 2012-10-29
End Date: 2013-11-01
Description: The purpose of this project was to demonstrate the feasibility of producing carbon nanotube (CNT) tapes which are piezoelectric. A further purpose was to design and test prototypes for accelerometers and vibration gyroscopes for use in small satellites and other payloads.
