Abstract

A hybrid nanotube (HNT) is fabricated by coating carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with a concentric coating layer. Vibration of the HNTs is of great interest due to its potential applications in nano-resonators, nanosensors/actuators and nanogenerators. In particular, it is expected that the super stiff but...
