新加坡数据储存研究院不久前在世界上首次合成了纳米碳墙,并已获得了这项技术的专利,目前正同一家日本公司合作将纳米碳墙应用到能源储存领域。据新加坡《联合早报》最近报道,纳米碳墙是该院研究人员在实验室偶然合成的,它在电子显微镜下犹如一道由几个原子排列而成的墙壁,厚度只有1至2纳米,高约2微米。碳墙允许电子在一个平面上作二维运动。此前,科学家已发现了纳米碳球、纳米碳管等形态。由60个碳原子组成的笼状纳米碳球,把电子包 Singapore Institute for Data Storage recently synthesized nanocrystalline carbon walls for the first time in the world and has won the patent for this technology. It is currently working with a Japanese company to apply carbon nanowalls to energy storage. According to a recent report by Singapore’s Lianhe Zaobao, a nanocarbon wall was accidentally synthesized in the laboratory by researchers at the institute. It looks like an electron-microscope-like wall made up of several atoms with a thickness of only 1 to 2 nanometers and a height of about 2 microns. Carbon walls allow electrons to move two-dimensionally in a plane. Previously, scientists have found nanocarbons, carbon nanotubes and other forms. Cage-like nanocarbon balls composed of 60 carbon atoms, put the electronic package
