Gecko's lessons transfer well: Dry printing of nanotube patterns to any surface could revolutionize microelectronics

Monday, January 25, 2010 - 14:35 in Physics & Chemistry

Scientists have come up with a way to transfer forests of strongly aligned, single-walled carbon nanotubes from one surface to another -- any surface -- in a matter of minutes. The template used to grow the nanotubes, with its catalyst particles still intact, can be used repeatedly to grow more nanotubes, almost like inking a rubber stamp.
