Theoretical Study of Functionalized Boron Nitride Nanotubes and Their Application as Gas Sensor. The gas sensors to be studied in this project can be deployed for a variety of applications, such as environmental monitoring, sensing in chemical processing plant, and gas detection for counter-terrorism, this project thus can significantly contribute to environmental protection, national security, and agriculture and pharmaceutical industries in Australia. Such mechanism understanding will also be ....Theoretical Study of Functionalized Boron Nitride Nanotubes and Their Application as Gas Sensor. The gas sensors to be studied in this project can be deployed for a variety of applications, such as environmental monitoring, sensing in chemical processing plant, and gas detection for counter-terrorism, this project thus can significantly contribute to environmental protection, national security, and agriculture and pharmaceutical industries in Australia. Such mechanism understanding will also be very useful for exploring the applications of BNNTs in nano-optical-magnetic devices, energy storage and biomaterials This project will also be important for keeping Australia in the frontier area in the research areas of nanotubes.Read moreRead less
