METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TUNABLE ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY

摘要

An embodiment relates a method comprising creating a reversible change in an electrical property by adsorption of a gas by a composition, wherein the composition comprises a noble metal-containing nanoparticle and a single walled carbon nanotube. Another embodiment relates to a method comprising forming a composition comprising a noble metal-containing nanoparticle and a single walled carbon nanotube and forming a device containing the said composition. Yet another method relates to a device comprising a composition comprising a noble metal-containing nanoparticle and a single walled carbon nanotube on a silicon wafer, wherein the composition exhibits a reversible change in an electrical property by adsorption of a gas by the composition.
