Camphor nanotubes
Researchers have created carbon nanofibres (CNF) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNs) from camphor, a natural hydrocarbon product obtained from the latex of camphor tree (Cinnamomum camphora)1. CNF and MWCNs have applications in electron field emitters for optical displays and microfabricated X-ray sources.
