Investigation of anisotropic reflectance from densified arrays of vertically aligned carbon nanotube forests (VACNTs)

VACNTs is commonly known as darkest absorber on earth owing to their highly inherent porosity. To reduce this porosity, in this letter, we introduce a simple process to densify VACNTs by soaking into water. Later on, the VACNTs was dried at ambient temperature, which made VACNTs more compacted du...
