1 | The fuel-coated nanotubes could replace batteries for cell phones and other devices. | |
2 | The team envisions such nanotube-based power being available to consumers in the next five years. | |
3 | The microtubules that give shape to cells are green, and epithelial cells with their microtubules destroyed are blue. | |
4 | "The thermal wave squeezes electrons out of the nanotubes like a tube of toothpaste, " Strano explained. | |
5 | With some tweaking, the carbon nanotubes could even power a car, Strano said. |
