Shear modulated percolation in carbon nanotube composites.

A novel time-dependent percolation transition has been observed in sheared carbon nanotube (CNT) composites. At a fixed CNT filler loading, the electrical conductivities of CNT composites can change abruptly as much as 8 orders of magnitude as the shear processing time increases. Microstructure characterization shows that the CNTs have aligned along the shear flow direction, which leads to the dramatic increase of the percolation threshold and thereby the dramatic decreases of the electrical conductivities. Our results highlight the great importance of understanding the response of CNT dispersion states to the processing conditions.

Materials science. Electronics without lead.

In conventional consumer electronics such as cell phones, lead-containing interconnects provide the conductive path between different circuit elements. Environmental concerns have led to a search for lead-free alternatives. In their Perspective, Li et al. review these efforts, which have focused on lead-free alloys and electrically conductive adhesives. Both of these approaches are showing promise, but no one lead-free interconnect material can serve as a substitute for the conventional tin-lead solder in all devices.
