A team from MIT and Saab AB has found a way to bond composite layers in such a way that the resulting material is substantially stronger and more resistant to damage than other advanced composites. The researchers found that the ∼10 nm diameter carbon nanotubes interdigitated between carbon fibers in the adjacent laminae—i.e.,
