Abstract
Some people claim that carbon nanotubes are the most important material of the 21st century. The future tells us whether this is true, but the past teaches that most predictions are wrong. In any case, carbon nanotubes certainly are the most popular material of the present. Since their discovery in 1991 (Iijima, 1991) some 20 000 publications have appeared and some 1000 patents have been filed. The computer model of a carbon nanotube is shown
