Applications of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) like field emission displays, super-capacitors, and cell growth scaffolds can benefit from controllable embedding of the CNTs in a material such that the CNTs are anchored and protrude a desired length. We demonstrate a simple method for anchoring densely packed, vertically alig…

Fluorescence blinking of silver nanoparticle films is observed when illuminated with red light (635 nm). The observed power-law off-time distribution is attributed to random surface diffusion and subsequent agglomeration of atomic Ag leading to the formation of photo-active Ag nanoclusters. These nanoclusters can in t…

Electrically charged cellular polymers are known to display pseudo-piezoelectric effects that endow them with interesting mechano-electrical characteristics. When a film of such a polymer is compressed, charge is generated across its thickness, and conversely, applying an oscillatory or static potential elicits mechan…

A correlated random telegraph signal is observed from the interaction of two individual defects in a carbon nanotube transistor. It is shown that the amplitude fluctuation of one defect significantly depends on the state of the other defect. Moreover, statistics of the correlated switchings is shown to deviate from th…
