Data confidence 85 high
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The influence of γ-radiation on the structural and conducting properties of copper nanotubes, obtained by electrochemical synthesis in pores of on polyethylene terephthalate-based template matrices, has been studied. With the use of scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, and electron diffraction analysis, it has been established that irradiation with γ-rays at doses of 50 and 100 kGy makes it possible to modify the crystal structure of the nanotubes, increasing their conductivity and decreasing the resistance of the nanosized entities without destroying their structure.
