Nano-curles
Ever been curious what nano technology is? Take a look! These are carbon nano tubes. Some are curled, which is unfortunate. Note the bamboo like structure of the larger tube. Magnification about 12500 times. The image depicts a sample of 7 by 6 micrometers. Enjoy and comment! Ah, before I forget, the grains you observe in my pictures are due to the coating of the samples with gold or platinum. The little spheres of metal supposedly dissipate the charge building up during a measurement and therefore increase the sharpness and contrast of the pictures.
