Controlled fabrication of carbon nanotube NO2 gas sensor using dielectrophoretic impedance measurement
The authors have previously demonstrated an electrokinetic fabrication method of a carbon nanotube (CNT) gas sensor using dielectrophoresis. One advantage of the technique was that one could quantify the amount of trapped nanotubes on a real time basis by monitoring electrical impedance of the sensor (dielectrophoretic impedance measurement, DEPIM). In the present study, we extended the DEPIM t...
متن کاملThe effects of suspending medium on dielectrophoretic systems for separating and sorting carbon nanotubes
The separation of two different types of multi-walled carbon nanotubes is studied in a dielectrophoresis-based microchannel system in seven different solvents as the suspending medium. A simple model was developed to predict the behavior of the multi-walled carbon nanotubes in the above mentioned system. Then, the equations of motion for the multi-walled carbon nanotubes in that system were in...
متن کاملIn situ and real time determination of metallic and semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes in suspension via dielectrophoresis
We report an alternative method combining dielectrophoresis and impedance spectroscopy to provide rapid, accurate measurement of dielectrophoretic collection of single-walled carbon nanotubes SWNTs in real time. We analyzed a Triton X-100 suspension of mixed SWNTs to measure their precise dielectrophoretic collection behavior. Results indicate that our sample contains 21.5% of metallic and 78.5...
متن کاملSUNFEST REU Program DIELECTROPHORETIC ASSEMBLY, INTEGRATION, AND CHARACTERIZATION OF FUNCTIONAL NANOSTRUCTURES
Nano-electro-mechanical systems (NEMS) are pivotal to integrated systems research. The ability to integrate sensors and processors on a single wafer has the potential to create highly sensitive and complex systems that respond to changing environmental stimuli. This project focuses on the assembly, integration, and characterization of both nanowires and nanotubes used in NEMS devices. Using die...
متن کاملThree-dimensional assembly of single-walled carbon nanotube interconnects using dielectrophoresis.
We present a hybrid approach that combines top-down fabrication with bottom-up directed assembly for making single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) based three-dimensional interconnects. The SWNTs are assembled using dielectrophoresis at room temperature on a microfabricated 3D platform. The two-terminal resistance of the assembled SWNTs at 10 Vpp assembly voltage is approximately 545 Ω. Simulatio...
