• via mitochondrial pathway and scavenger receptors, and necrosis [68][69][70]. For example, it has been shown that when single-wall CNTs (SWCNTs) enter into cells, they interact with the actin filaments, rearranging the actin, disrupt the mitochondrial function, and cause abnormalities in cell division

• taken from SEM pictures: Lcant = 85 μm and Lcnt = 10 μm. They have been recalculated into effective lengths by Leff = L/1.377 for the first bending mode [6]. We are aware of the fact that there are carbon nanotubes, especially single wall CNTs, that can exhibit a much lower stiffness than the FeCNT

• -based devices have been attributed to the photon-induced generation of charge carriers in single-wall CNTs and the subsequent charge separation across the carbon nanotube–metal contact interface [11]. To the best of our knowledge, there is a lack of measurements in the UV region [8], and moreover, there

An ozone treatment, as an example for covalent functionalization, is simple to integrate into the ALD process and was
