Simultaneous alignment and micropatterning of carbon nanotubes using modulated magnetic field

We report simultaneous alignment and micropatterning of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) using a high magnetic field. It is important to prepare well-dispersed CNTs for alignment and patterning because CNT aggregation obstructs alignment. In magnetic field, highly anisotropic CNTs rotate in the direction sta...
