Nanoelectronic Devices Constructed Using Individual Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanofibers

Yang X., Austin D.W., Guillorn M.A., Merkulov V.I., Melechko A.V, Lowndes D.H., Simpson M.L., Oak Ridge National Laboratory, US

We are fabricating active nanoscale electronic devices based on Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanofibers (VACNF). VACNFs are synthesized in a high-density Plasma-Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) process that provides a high degree of control of the [...]

Controlled Synthesis and Directed Assembly of Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanofibers for Functional Nanoscale Devices

Merkulov V.I., Melechko A.V, Guillorn M.A., McKnight T.E., Austin D.W., Hale M., Zhang L., Yang X., Hensley D.K., Subich T., Doktycz M.J., Lowndes D.H., Simpson M.L., Oak Ridge National Laboratory, US

The controlled synthesis and directed assembly of materials at the nanoscale remain two of the most difficult challenges for the realization of functional nanoscale devices. For example, while there has been a great deal of [...]
