Scanning tunneling microscopy of DNA-wrapped carbon nanotubes.
We employ scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) to reveal the structure of DNA-carbon nanotube complexes with unprecedented spatial resolution and compare our experimental results to molecular dynamics simulations. STM images show strands of DNA wrapping around (6,5) nanotubes at approximately 63 degrees angle with a coiling period of 3.3 nm, in agreement with the theoretical predictions. In addi...
متن کاملScanning thermal microscopy of carbon nanotubes using batch-fabricated probes
We have designed and batch-fabricated thin-film thermocouple cantilever probes for scanning thermal microscopy ~SThM!. Here, we report the use of these probes for imaging the phonon temperature distribution of electrically heated carbon-nanotube ~CN! circuits. The SThM images reveal possible heat dissipation mechanisms in CN circuits. The experiments also demonstrate that heat flow through the ...
متن کاملAtomic structure of carbon nanotubes from scanning tunneling microscopy
The atomic structure of a carbon nanotube can be described by its chiral angle and diameter and can be specified by a pair of lattice indices (n ,m). The electronic and mechanical properties are critically dependent on these indices. Scanning tunneling microscopy ~STM! is a useful tool to investigate carbon nanotubes since the atomic structure as well as the electronic properties of individual ...
متن کاملMagnetic force microscopy using fabricated cobalt-coated carbon nanotubes probes
Magnetic force microscope ( MFM ) is a powerful technique for mapping the magnetic force gradient above the sample surface. Herein, single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) were used to fabricate MFM probe by dielectrophoresis method which is a reproducible and cost-effective technique. The effect of induced voltage on the deposition manner of carbon nanotubes (CNT) on the atomic force microscope (...
متن کاملRevealing the Role of Catalysts in Carbon Nanotubes and Nanofibers by Scanning Transmission X-ray Microscopy
The identification of effective components on the atomic scale in carbon nanomaterials which improve the performance in various applications remains outstanding challenges. Here the catalyst residues in individual carbon nanotube (CNT) and carbon nanofiber (CNF) were clearly imaged with a concurrent characterization of their electronic structure by nanoscale scanning transmission X-ray microsco...
