Discovery of carbon nanothermometer (Nature 2002). The height of a continuous, unidimensional column of liquid gallium inside a carbon nanotube (up to about 10 micrometers long and about 75 nanometers in diameter) varies linearly and reproducibly in the temperature range 50-500°C

The researcher doing this research is: Yoshio Bando
