Jayatissa at Western Michigan University, carbon nanotubes can be formed in a high-density, closely packed configuration enabling their large-scale production. The nanotubes are grown in a patented ...

A forest of pure-carbon nanostructures ... single-walled carbon nanotubes. Hata, who is the director of the Nano Carbon Device Research Center at AIST, showed that a substrate coated with a ...

substrate compatibility, and the molecular structure of the nanotubes themselves. One significant area of research is the growth of vertically aligned carbon nanotube forests (VACNT) on flexible ...

the density of carbon nanotubes is small. The plasma focuses the nanotubes onto the substrate with high density and good adhesion. This image may be used only with appropriate credit.

For example, carbon nanotubes ... They used a sapphire substrate with a specific crystalline plane exposed to the surface, providing a template on which nanotubes can be grown.
