摘要
Rows of aligned carbon nanotubes standing shoulder by shoulder (see Figure) have been synthesized by growing nanotubes inside Au micro- and nanotrenches created by nanobelts or nanowires. Ibis simple non-lithographic method can be used to fabricate nanotube rows with a width of less than 2 mum, and a length over hundreds of micrometers.
