Theoretical modeling and experimental validation of Electrical conductivity for highly aligned single-walled carbon nanotube thin films

A new model capable of accurately predicting the electrical conductivity of highly aligned single-walled carbon nanotube thin films has been developed. The films ranged between 1 and 11 layers thick. The well-established Lamination theory failed to predict the experimentally measured values for the films of different thicknesses. However, this model, based on modified and expanded techniques applied within the realm of the lamination theory, could predict the exact values taking into consideration the inter-layer interaction that is crucial for the properties and performance of nano- films.
