Invisible Nanocables Like Spider Webs
Filed in archive Materials on August 15, 2008
Have you ever wondered how those invisible threads made by spiders can be so strong? Spiders have an amazing ability to create super-strong webs. Well, that secret could be the key to helping researchers build very strong nanocables. Theoretically, such a carbon nanotube could be created. A single fiber could be invisible, but when multiple fibers are combined, the thread would be visible. Read about the research here in the journal Microsystem Technologies here.
