Abstract

In this paper, we observed stretching of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) aggregates driven by the in-plane field in a homogeneously aligned nematic liquid crystal (LC) medium. Aggregates of SWCNTs started to stretch above the 0.5 V/${\mu}m$ and stretched up to $1.83\;{\mu}m$ from original size with $0.74\;{\mu}m$ at 3.5 V/${\mu}m$.
