Abstract

Graphene has been reported with record-breaking properties which have opened up huge potential applications. Considerable amount of researches have been devoted to manipulating or modify the properties of graphene to target a more smart nanoscale device. Graphene and carbon nanotube hybrid structure (GNHS) is one of the promising graphene derivate. The synthesis process and the mechanical properties are essential for the GNHS based devices. Therefore, this review will summarise the recent progress of the highly ordered GNHS synthesis/assembly, and discuss the mechanical properties of GNHS under various conditions as obtained from molecular dynamics simulations.
