Patterned assembly of carbon nanotube arrays

Patterned assembly of carbon nanotube arrays

Abstract

Ordered arrays of carbon nanotubes in bent and straight states were prepared using "wet" deposition approaches. This approach provided a means for the formation of highly oriented and textured nanotube arrays of different types. Under certain conditions, nanotube loops of different shapes were formed on amine-terminated silicon surface stripes. We suggested that the dewetting of the SAM-confined liquid film was responsible for the alignment of carbon nanotubes and for the formation of the looped nanotubes. The instability of a receding contact line caused water microdroplets behind the dewetting film, which could serve as nuclei for nanotube trapping. The nanotubes pinned to the functionalized surface can be trapped by these drying microdroplets and bent along their shrinking circumference. The bent nanotube structure on patterned CNT assembly was investigated by combined AFM and Raman spectroscopy. We showed that the tangential G-mode shift downward upon nanotube bending, which caused by the loosening of C-C bond. The preparation of the ordered arrays of uniform nanotube loops or woven nanotube stripes may be useful in microelectromechanical devices, where tunable electronic and surface properties result from different nanotube shapes, location and orientation.
