Abstract

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) show an oscillation in electrical resistance (from I–V measurements) during mechanical distortion in which peak separation is inversely correlated with the diameter of the MWCNTs. These results provide the first experimental support of the theoretical predictio...
