✦ Synopsis

Abstract

A brief review is given on transport properties of carbon nanotubes mainly from a theoretical point of view. The topics include an effective‐mass description of electronic states, the absence of backward scattering except for scatterers with a potential range smaller than the lattice constant, the presence of a perfectly conducting channel, and effects of symmetry breaking perturbations. The dynamical conductivity in the presence of a perfect channel and inter‐wall interactions in double‐wall nanotubes are also discussed. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

## Abstract Conductive nanoparticles may enhance tissue heating during radiofrequency (RF) irradiation. Specific absorption rate (SAR) is known to rise with the electrical conductivity of tissue. However, no studies to date have measured the relationship between complex permittivity and nanoparticl
