trigonometry-is-my-bitch: High Definition images of Vertically Aligned NanoTube Arrays, or Vantablack - The Darkest known material since 2014.info -“vantablack is a substance made of carbon nanotubes and is the blackest substance known, absorbing a maximum of 99.965% of radiation in the visible spectrum. It comprises a forest of vertical tubes which are “grown”. When light strikes vantablack, instead of bouncing off, it becomes trapped and is continually deflected between the tubes before eventually becoming heat.Early development was carried out at the National Physical Laboratory, UK.” - wikipedia -- source link
