Young's Modulus of Single-Crystal Fullerene Nanotubes
Figure 5
Young’s modulus of single-crystal C70 nanotubes plotted against outer diameter. The values observed in the present study are indicated by the filled circles. The solid line indicates a linear approximation. For reference, Young’s moduli of single-crystal C60 nanotubes and nanowhiskers are represented with rhombus and open circles, respectively [18, 19, 29].
