Abstract

Electromagnetic scattering from Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) has received wide interest in the past decade. Many different CNT configurations have been computationally investigated such as single CNTs, infinite planar arrays of CNTs, finite arrays with simple distributions, and bundles of CNTs. In all of the previously reported configurations, the CNTs were perfectly straight and they were arranged in a uniform distribution. However, in commercial CNT composites the CNTs typically exhibit highly complex shapes and distributions. The goal of this work is to simulate and characterize the electromagnetic scattering from multiple CNTs with realistic shapes and distributions that resemble those found in commercial composites.
