摘要
Nanoassembly of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) in three-dimensional space is realized by positioning these building blocks with nanometer order accuracy, joining them together through van der Waals forces, and fixing them with electron-beam-induced deposition (EBID) or chemical bonds through mechanochemical nanorobotic manipulations. MWNT I-junctions and Y-junctions are constructed. For parallel nanoassembly, concept of parallel EBID is presented, MWNT electron-beam emitter is prepared through nanoassembly of MWNTs onto commercially available atomic force microscope (AFM) cantilevers, and feasibility of using them for parallel EBID is investigated.
