The concept of bent carbon nanotubes has now entered our vocabulary.

It turns out that carbon nanotubes can be created using either physical chemistry methods or by

This leads to two questions: When will carbon nanotubes find their first application in microcircuits
as interconnects? When will someone fashion DNA to produce an improved neuron?
