Patent US7108841B2. issued 2006-09-19. Retrieved from https://hdl.handle.net/1911/79923.https://hdl.handle.net/1911/79923This invention relates generally to forming a patterned array of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT). In one embodiment, a nanoscale array of microwells is provided on a substrate; a metal catalyst is deposited in each microwells; and a stream of hydrocarbon or CO feedstock gas is directed at the substrate under conditions that effect growth of single-wall carbon nanotubes from each microwell.47 ppengUtility patentUS7108841B2
