Abstract:
1. A carbon nanostructure/polymer composite material comprising: a plurality of carbon nanostructures having substantially opposed ends formed into a predetermined architecture that includes a hierarchical structure in which larger structures are combined with smaller structures, the carbon nanostructures architecture configured such that one end of each said plurality of carbon nanostructures is embedded within a polymer matrix that is formed as an elongated tube, said plurality of carbon nanostructures extending from said polymer matrix in a manner that the predetermined architecture is stabilized in said polymer matrix, the other end of each said plurality of carbon nanostructures forming said hierarchical structure is exposed above said polymer matrix and proximate to a cavity formed by said elongated tube.
