In the first decade of our century, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) became a wonderful emitting
material for field-emission (FE) of electrons. The carbon nanotube field-emission (CNT-FE) …

Flexible temperature sensors are desired for a wide range of applications in engineering,
biology, and medicine. In the present paper, we describe the development of novel flexible …

Multi-wall vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (VACNTs) are nearly ideal absorbers due to
their exceptionally low reflectance over a broad wavelength range. Integrating VACNTs as …

Due to their excellent physical properties and compatibility with micro-fabrication processes,
vertically aligned carbon nanotubes (VA-CNTs) have been successfully integrated in various …

Electrostatic loading is widely used for sensing and actuation in miniaturized
electromechanical systems, yet classical designs involve geometric patterning of solid …

Abstract Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) are attractive elements for bearings in Micro-Electro-
Mechanical Systems (MEMS), because their structure comprises nested shells with no …

Carbon has become a popular material in microelectromechanical (MEMS) applications
because of its versatile electrochemical and mechanical properties, as well as the numerous …

Wet etching is a critical fabrication step for the mass production of micro and nanoelectronic
devices. However, when an extremely corrosive acid such as hydrofluoric (HF) acid are …

We demonstrate a negative Poisson's ratio in carbon nanotube forest devices subjected to
extension motion obtained by means of electrostatic actuation. Actuated devices were …
