High-Resolution X-ray Spectromicroscopy Reveals Process-Structure Correlations in sub-5-μm Diameter Carbon Nanotube-Polymer Composite Dry-Spun Yarns

Journal Article Meshot, Eric R. ; Baker, Alexander ; Malone, Daniel ; ... - ACS Nano

A persistent lack of detailed and quantitative structural analysis of these hierarchical carbon nanotube (CNT) ensembles precludes establishing processing-structure-property relationships that are essential to enhance macroscale performance (e.g., in mechanical, electrical, thermal applications). Here, in this work, we use scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM) to analyze the hierarchical, twisted morphology of dry-spun CNT yarns and their composites, quantifying key structural characteristics such as density, porosity, alignment, and polymer loading. As the yarn twist density increases (15,000 to 150,000 turns per meter), the yarn diameter decreased (4.4–1.4 μm) and density increased (0.55–1.26 g·cm^–3), as intuitively expected.

Liquid-free covalent reinforcement of carbon nanotube dry-spun yarns and free-standing sheets

Journal Article Lepró, Xavier ; Aracne-Ruddle, Chantel ; Malone, Daniel ; ... - Carbon

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) possess exceptional mechanical properties, surpassing stiffness and strength metrics of common materials such as steel alloys by 100× at the nanoscale. However, when myriads of individual CNTs are bundled together into macroscopic ensembles like fibers or sheets, the result is a 100-fold drop in strength compared to its individual components. Here we present a general strategy aimed to close this gap in property scaling. By using vapor-phase polymerization of a crosslinkable polymer, we reinforced the weak interlinkages among individual CNTs within both yarns and sheets to promote a better transference of mechanical load across the structure. Furthermore,more »« less

Effects of target fragmentation on evaluation of LET spectra from space radiation in low-earth orbit (LEO) environment: Impact on SEU prediction

Journal Article Shinn, J L ; Cucinotta, F A ; Wilson, J W ; ... - IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science

Recent improvements in the radiation transport code HZETRN/BRYNTRN and galactic cosmic ray environmental model have provided an opportunity to investigate the effects of target fragmentation on estimates of single event upset (SEEU) rates for spacecraft memory devices. Since target fragments are mostly of very low energy, an SEU prediction model has been derived in terms of particle energy rather than linear energy transfer (LET) to account for nonlinear relationship between range and energy. Predictions are made for SEU rates observed on two Shuttle flights, each at low and high inclination orbit. Corrections due to track structure effects are made formore »« less

Operation of commercial R3000 processors in the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) space environment

Conference Kaschmitter, J L ; Shaeffer, D L ; Colella, N J ; ...

Spacecraft processors must operate with minimal degradation of performance in the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) radiation environment, which includes the effects of total accumulated ionizing dose and Single Event Phenomena (SEP) caused by protons and cosmic rays. Commercially available microprocessors can offer a number of advantages relative to radiation-hardened devices, including lower cost, reduced development and procurement time, extensive software support, higher density and performance. However, commercially available systems are not normally designed to tolerate effects induced by the LEO environment. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and others have extensively tested the MIPS R3000 Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) microprocessormore »« less
