Based on the NanoSPRINT Encyclopedia of Nanotechnology Carbon nanotube-based electrically driven actuators convert the electrical energy applied by an external source into a mechanical deformation of the nanotubes. In a similar manner, optically driven actuators convert infrared radiation at the nanotube level into mechanical deformation... ANATOMY OF A PATENTING AREA: Deposition of carbon nanotubes This class of manipulation methods concerns the transfer of a solid coating of pure nanotubes on a pre-existing substrate. This class of manipulation techniques is required for applying thin-films of carbon nanotubes on substrates that cannot withstand high temperatures and do not allow direct grow methods. In addition, various devices can benefit form deposition techniques, without the need of dismantling them. FEATURED EQUIPMENT: Dynamic imaging of nano-scale features Drawings, 3D models and pictures often accompany the verbal or written description of tiny objects like carbon nanotubes or nanowires that can be hardly seen even by the most sophisticated tools. Since the visual information is the primary source for human comprehension of reality, sometimes not just one, but a continuous stream of images is required when we are dealing with dynamically active objects. For example, the motion of molecular structures, and especially that of biological structures, is the result of specific thermal and functional activity. In this case, collecting adequate and sufficient information proves critically important for understanding, analyzing and controlling an object and its dynamic behavior.
