The blackest material known to science created from Nanotubes


BBC reports that researchers have produced the darkest known material to science by manufacturing "forests" of carbon nanotubes.

A team led by Dr. Pulickel Ajayan, (Now at Rice University in Houston, Texas), Dr. Shawn Lin and colleagues have reported this findings in the journal Nano Letters. This work was carried out at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York.

This promising discovery would help in making more efficient solar cells, or in any other applications where you need to harvest light.
