Re: [Vo]:Coherent Quantum Wires and Charge Accumulation
Jojo, I believe that current carrying capacity in metal nanowires is proportional to cross-sectional area - before the diameter reaches the electron mean free path for the metal. But, there are other factors - length, geometry and uniformity of wire cross-section, temperature, applied voltage, cross-talk to adjacent nanowires, ... a very nonlinear relationship. (Refer to the paper I originally referenced.) I think (but am not sure) that based on the following paper - Room temperature ballistic conduction in carbon nanotubes (equation 11) http://arxiv.org/ftp/cond-mat/papers/0211/0211515.pdf - that in carbon MWNTs max-current is proportional (up to mean free path) to cross-sectional area, at least at the MNWT contacts. So, I would guess the same holds for SWNTs. I find this subject awesomely complex. Probably experiment is the best way to check theory. As the great philosopher Yogi Berra allegedly said: Theoretically, the theoretical and the empirical are the same - empirically, they're not -- Lou Pagnucco Jojo Jaro wrote: What you are saying is the current carrying capacity of a conductor is proportional to the cross sectional area of the conductor. That is true only for the macro scale. Current flow in a 1 dimensional SWNT appears to be governed by quite different mechanisms. I do not believe the Current carrying capacity of a CNT is proportional to its cross sectional area. I believe SWNTs with smaller diameters can carry more current that MWNT with larger diameters. I believe that is exactly what long coherence lengths mean in this context. Tell me where I'm wrong.

Re: [Vo]:Coherent Quantum Wires and Charge Accumulation
Interesting paper Lou. This is giving me some more to chew on. Might it be possible that Rossi is processing his Nickel powder with the expressed goal of creating Quasi-One-Dimensional Nickel tubules. These nanosized diameter Nickel nanocylinders would act as charge accumulators. Could it be that Rossi's process is simply charge accumulation on metallic Nickel nanocylinders? I believe Axil also said something to this effect. How does one process to create nickel nanosized nanocylinder tubules? Regarding the mixture of Semiconducting and Metallic SWNTs, I believe the charge accumulation and coherent electrons would only be enhanced in Metallic SWNTs. Only the Metallic/Armchair variant of SWNT exhibit long Coherence Lengths. The semiconducting variants of SWNT like ZigZag and Chiral types do not exhibit long Coherence Lengths. If Axil's theory is correct, Metallic SWNTs are the key to easily providing an abundance of NAE. Ed Storms believes that Cracks and Carbon Nanotubes are perfect candidates for the NAE. Cracks can not be manufactured on demand, however Metallic SWNTs can be. If a process can be found to manufacture large amounts of Metallic SWNTs, increasing the power output density of an LENR Reactor would simply be a matter of controlling the production rate of Metallic SWNTs in conjunction with modulating the spark rate to control the amount of charge accumulation on these Metallic SWNTs.

Re: [Vo]:Coherent Quantum Wires and Charge Accumulation
First, ignore the empty reply - if it comes through. A mistype. But also don't forget Otto Reifenschweiler believed his experiments succeeded when colloidal chains of mono-crystalline Ti nanoparticles formed. There are lots of cracks and voids that can form and then disappear, so maybe that's relevant. I quickly perused arxiv.org for some papers on properties of nano-colloids - these sound interesting: Plasmonic Nanoparticle Networks for Light and Heat Concentration http://arxiv.org/pdf/1203.0574v1.pdf Phase transitions in nanoconfined binary mixtures of highly oriented colloidal rods http://arxiv.org/pdf/1005.0345v1 - Lou Pagnucco Jojo Jaro wrote: Interesting paper Lou. This is giving me some more to chew on. Might it be possible that Rossi is processing his Nickel powder with the expressed goal of creating Quasi-One-Dimensional Nickel tubules. These nanosized diameter Nickel nanocylinders would act as charge accumulators. Could it be that Rossi's process is simply charge accumulation on metallic Nickel nanocylinders? I believe Axil also said something to this effect. How does one process to create nickel nanosized nanocylinder tubules? Regarding the mixture of Semiconducting and Metallic SWNTs, I believe the charge accumulation and coherent electrons would only be enhanced in Metallic SWNTs. Only the Metallic/Armchair variant of SWNT exhibit long Coherence Lengths. The semiconducting variants of SWNT like ZigZag and Chiral types do not exhibit long Coherence Lengths. If Axil's theory is correct, Metallic SWNTs are the key to easily providing an abundance of NAE. Ed Storms believes that Cracks and Carbon Nanotubes are perfect candidates for the NAE. Cracks can not be manufactured on demand, however Metallic SWNTs can be.

[Vo]:Coherent Quantum Wires and Charge Accumulation
Axil, I found a page discussing the properties of SWNTs and it mentions that Metallic SWNTs exhibit Long Coherence Lengths. http://ipn2.epfl.ch/CHBU/NTelectronic1.htm From the page: Numerous experiments on SWNTs and MWNTs allowed to gain additional informations. At low temperatures, SWNTs behave as coherent quantum wires where the conduction occurs through discrete electron states over large distances. Transport measurements revealed that metallic SWNTs show extremely long coherence lengths and that the presence of defects or disorder has little influence on electron conduction. This is not the case for semi-conducting SWNTs, which show far shorter coherence lengths. Is this the same concept you were referring to in your post about charge accumulation in 1D structures. If so, it appears that SWNTs are better than MWNTs; specifically Metallic SWNTs appears to be the right allotropes that would enchance Charge accumulation. And since, arc discharge generators normally produce a mixture of Metallic and Semiconducting SWNTs, it would explain the hit and miss results we been getting with Cold Fusion. If this is correct, tuning the reactor to bias its production towards Metallic SWNTs should increase power production in LENR. Any ideas how to do this? I understand that doping the anode with Fe or Ni powders increases the production of SWNTs, I can tune my reactor towards SWNT production, but it seems, nobody knows how to tune production of the Metallic SWNTs variety over the Semiconducting Variety. That is, Armchair nanotubes as opposed to ZigZag or other chirals. Just thinking out loud here, but do you think the size of the Fe or Ni nanopowders used as catalyst seed material might influence the creation of Armchair SWNTs. Can you direct me to papers about SWNT charge accumulation. Jojo
