By <a href="https://sciencex.com/authors/lmzyga/">Lisa Zyga</a> -<br><br>As one of the simplest and tiniest of all motors, a double-walled carbon nanotube (DWCNT) with a rotating inner tube and fixed outer tube may one day play a major role in a variety of future nanodevices. In a new study, researchers have studied the inner tube rotational behavior of a DWCNT motor whose motion is induced by a relatively high uniform temperature.<br><br><a href="http://phys.org/news/2014-12-rotating-nanotube-motors-glimpse-future.html">READ MORE ON PHYS.ORG</a><br><br>Ref: K.
