The Applications of Carbon Nanotubes in Optical Limiting Effect

It is important to study optical limiting material for laser protection. As a new developing material, carbon nanotubes have exhibit perfect optical limiting property. The experiments are carried out with samples of different solvent and concentration. The results confirm that the optical limiting effect is due to carbon nanotubes and the surfactant is a good solvent to improve the limiting effect to make carbon nanotubes suitable for application.
