Circuits Better with Purer Nanotubes

Mark_Uplanguage writes "PhysicsWeb has an article on improving techniques for the use of carbon nanotubes in electronic circuits. From the article, 'Physicists in the US have developed a new method for making electronic circuits with carbon nanotubes. The technique involves dipping semiconductor chips into a purified solution of nanotubes, rather than the conventional method of growing the nanotubes directly onto the chips. The resulting devices are much better than those produced by other approaches.'"

  1. A solution of nanotubes? No such beast! by bigsteve@dstc · · Score: 2, Insightful
    The article says it is a solution containing nanotubes, not a solution of nanotubes.

    And if the nanotubes were in solution, they wouldn't be nanotubes any more.

    Man the military-industrial complex is SO 1960's, now it's the PLM, Political, Legal, Media, complex that we worry about. All hail the Senator from Disney, and Mickey Mouse's perpetual copyright protection!
