This paper reports the integration of the helical nanobelts (HNBs) onto carbon nanotube (CNT)-based infrared (IR) sensors to enhance their sensitivity by improving the fill factor. The repeatable and controllable assembly process is achieved by employing nanorobotic manipulation. The enhancement after integration is confirmed by the electromagnetic simulation. Based on the simulation result, the integration...
Modes of melting and evaporation of metal at attogram level from individual carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are investigated experimentally using nanorobotic manipulation inside a transmission electron microscope. We compared the melting and evaporation induced by electric current, Joule heating, charge, and ionization. Experiments show that the most effective method is by positively ionizing the encapsulated...
Inter-nanotube mass transport along the central pores of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is a fundamental problem for CNT-based nanofluidic devices. Besides the interest for testing classical theories of fluid flow at the nanoscale, CNT fluidic junctions are basic elements for more complex fluidic systems. Controlled melting, evaporation and flowing of copper and tin intra-/inter-nanotube shells are investigated...
This paper provides a review of recent experimental techniques developed for shell engineering individual multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs). Basic processes for the nanorobotic manipulation of MWNTs inside a transmission electron microscope are investigated. MWNTs, bamboo-structured carbon nanotubes (CNTs), Cu-filled CNTs, and CNTs with quantum dots attached are used as test structures for manipulation...
