Carbon nanotube conducting arrays by consecutive amidation reactions

Abstract

Carbon nanotube conducting arrays were constructed via consecutive amidation reactions with the aid of a linker molecule and a condensation agent on a patterned amine-terminated glass substrate. The electrical resistivity of the nanotube films was sensitive to the degree of coverage for the substrate, making it possible to tailor nanotube multilayers suitable for use in micro- or nanoscale electronic devices and circuits.
