We evaluated thermal conduction of a single carbon nanotube (CNT) in air. Heating the end of the CNT locally by a microheater, we measured temperature dependence of electrical resistance of the single CNT. First, we fabricated the microheater for local heating and four electrodes for electrical resistance measurement on a Silicon on Insulator (SOI) wafer and made a gap for heat insulation. The effectiveness...
We present, for the first time, a MEMS-based test methodology that potentially enables elevated-temperature mechanical tensile testing of nano- and micro-scale samples within a SEM or TEM (T > 500degC). Importantly, the test methodology allows for the samples to be fabricated separately from the MEMS-apparatus, a significant advancement from other test devices developed by some of the present authors...
