Electric-field-directed growth of aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes
Y Zhang, A Chang, J Cao, Q Wang, W Kim, Y Li… - Applied physics …, 2001 - pubs.aip.org
Electric-field-directed growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes by chemical-vapor
deposition is demonstrated. The field-alignment effect originates from the high polarizability
of single-walled nanotubes. Large induced dipole moments lead to large aligning torques
and forces on the nanotube, and prevent randomization of nanotube orientation by thermal
fluctuations and gas flows. The results shall open up possibilities in directed growth of
ordered molecular-wire architectures and networks on surfaces.
