Abstract
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are one-dimensional tubular structures of carbon
that have attracted much attention due to their potential to be used in
various fields like energy storage/conversion devices, biosensing
devices, drug delivery systems to name a few. Their excellent
electrochemical properties like electron mobility, electrical and
thermal conductivity, and high surface area make them good material for
use in energy storage and conversion materials. The most promising
research in the synthesis and applications of CNTs toward energy
conversion and storage is highlighted along with limitations faced in
mass production.
