Research. Carbon Nanotube Cookbook. Purification[edit] Heat Treatment[edit] Suitable Solvents[edit] DI Water not very well suited to make nanotube solutions. Can however be a good choice when used with detergents As CNTs are hydrophobic they are best dissolved in organic solvents such as DMF. Dispersion Methods[edit] Dispersing Agents[edit] Preparations[edit] The Substrate[edit] Choosing the right substrate[edit] Preparing chips from a wafer[edit] Important: Open wafer boxes only inside an operating flowbox!

Spin a layer of protective resist on the entire wafer and bake it thoroughly.Use a ruler and a diamond pen to scribe the wafer. Preparing alignment marks on the surface[edit] Remove protective resist layer with Acetone and wash the chip in IPASpin on your preferred resist system and bake the waferEBL pattern the chips with a 3x3 matrix of alignment marksEvaporate a sufficiently thick (>35 nm) Cr/Au or Ti/Au metal layer Applying Nanotubes[edit] This section covers methods for random deposition of tubes. Tubes in SDS (aq.) Chaos. List of academic databases and search engines.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This page contains a representative list of major databases and search engines useful in an academic setting for finding and accessing articles in academic journals, institutional repositories, archives, or other collections of scientific and other articles. As the distinction between a database and a search engine is unclear for these complex document retrieval systems, see: the general list of search engines for all-purpose search engines that can be used for academic purposesthe article about bibliographic databases for information about databases giving bibliographic information about finding books and journal articles. Note that "free" or "subscription" can refer both to the availability of the database or of the journal articles included. This has been indicated as precisely as possible in the list: ArXiv.org e-Print archive.
