“…Primary contributions to this observed resistance might be the tunneling of charge carriers between SWNTs in the bundle and contact resistance between the SWNT bundles and the electrodes. 3,20,24,25 In conclusion we have demonstrated that, by employing both electrophoresis and dip coating, SWNTs suspended in solution can be assembled on prefabricated structures with precise alignment and control over large areas within a short period of time. It is also shown that the direction of substrate withdrawal significantly affects the alignment and orientation of directed assembly of SWNT bundles.…”

The authors demonstrate precise alignment and controlled assembly of single wall nanotube ͑SWNT͒ bundles at a fast rate over large areas by combining electrophoresis and dip coating processes. SWNTs in solution are assembled on prepatterned features that are 80 nm wide and separated by 200 nm. The results show that the direction of substrate withdrawal significantly affects the orientation and alignment of the assembled SWNT bundles. I-V characterization is carried out to demonstrate electrical continuity of these assembled SWNT bundles.

“…Here, we report a distinct approach to separate SWNTs in bundles using low-energy electron irradiation. Over the past decade, a number of studies [2][3][4][5][6] have demonstrated the use of high energy e-beam and/or ion beam irradiation for annealing metallic contacts, 6,7 coalescence of carbon nanotubes ͑CNTs͒, and exfoliation of CNT bundles. 8 In the present work, we show that SWNTs in a rope can be separated under e-beam irradiation in scanning electron microscope ͑SEM͒ at a relatively low voltage range.…”
