Abstract
A method and device for producing an aligned carbon nanotube array. The arrays of aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) may be formed by drying liquid dispersions of CNTs on a nanoporous substrate under an applied electrostatic field. The array may be used in a number of applications including electronics, optics, and filtration, including desalination.
Claims6
An aligned array of carbon nanotubes comprising:
- A plurality of purified carbon nanotubes having approximately uniform diameters;
- a nanoporous substrate, the carbon nanotubes being electrostatically aligned perpendicular to a surface of the nanoporous substrate;
- and, a binding agent.
