Fabrication of a rotary carbon nanotube bearing test apparatus

Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) are attractive elements for bearings in MicroElectro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), because their structure comprises nested shells with no bonding and sub-nanometre spacing between them, enabling relative motion with low friction and wear. A reliable bearing technology is critic...
