QuoteThe flashiest discovery in science this week is a powerful force field that makes particles quickly come together.

The technology is coming out of Rice University, where scientists have developed a way to make carbon nanotubes self-assemble in a dish using a powerful Tesla coil transformer circuit. Similar to graphene, carbon nanotubes are considered "supermaterials" with many potential applications but they have yet to be implemented on a wide scale. This new development will allow scientists to build circuits without actually touching them, marking a major step forward for potential uses of the material.

Paul Cherukuri, adjunct assistant professor of chemistry at Rice University, explained that the Tesla coil system creates a high-voltage field that causes the nanotubes to align from a distance, a process they call teslaphoresis. When scientists turn the powerful machine on, the disparate particles quickly coalesce into a line.

"It's very much like a web stringing out together," he said. "The physics of that is much richer than we originally thought. There is new science coming out of this as we go."
