Imaging Carbon Nanostructures with SPMs

چکیده
The unique mechanical and electronic properties of fullerenes, nanotubes, graphene and carbon nanoribbons make them very promising materials for nanotechnological applications. First-principles calculations of forces and currents between a tip and carbon nanostructures show that the rich variety of image patterns found in atomic-scale AFM and STM measurements can be rationalized in terms of the chemical reactivity of the tip and the distance range explored in the experiments.

Nanoassembly of Carbon Nanotubes through Mechanochemical Nanorobotic Manipulations
Nanoassembly is one of the key techniques for molecular nanotechnology. As an extension of scanning probe microscopes (SPMs) to three-dimensional space and for relatively large nanometer-scale objects, nanorobotic manipulation systems have shown their effectiveness in nanometer-order positioning, picking and placing, property characterization and simple nanoassembly of nanometerscale objects. I...
