CSIRO is one of several research organizations formed from initiatives of the Australian Federal Government who are working in the field of nanotechnology. A brief outline of this context and of the organizational structure of CSIRO is provided within which activities in nanotechnology and, more specifically, carbon nanotubes (CNT) are undertaken. The discussion then moves on to experimental results on CNT membranes and comparisons to theory, which is a field where CEA and CSIRO are running a joint collaboration program.
