What makes carbon nanotubes special are their remarkable properties. These tiny cylinders are stronger than steel, and yet so thin that 50,000 of them would equal the thickness of a human hair.

Single-walled carbon nanotubes are ideal materials for sensing due to their high surface area, but their extreme sensitivity has long come with a downside: poor selectivity.
