The demand for smaller and more powerful electronic devices is ever growing in many sectors of today’s society. Current technology limits how small devices can be. To develop smaller devices, new materials and manufacturing techniques are needed. Ali Aliev and Ray Baughman of the Alan G. MacDiarmid NanoTech Institute have developed a non-contact dry patterning technique for carbon nanotubes. Their technique uses field-enhanced electron emission to introduce patterns onto nanomaterials and allows for the fabrication of a variety of nanostructures useful for electronic and optical devices.
Non-contact patterning of nanomaterials in air by low-voltage electron-emission, Advances in Engineering, 2021
The study by Professor Aliev and Professor Baughman reported the successful development of a dry-state patterning technique for freestanding or supported nanostructures. In a statement to Advances in Engineering, the authors explained the proposed electron emission patterning for processing of carbon and other conductive two- and three-dimensional nanostructures in air could be useful for integration of conductive electronic and optical devices into existing silicon planar technologies. Moreover, by using their technique, multi-electrode sensors, metamaterials, photonic crystals and various electronic components had been successfully fabricated. The innovative method invented by Professor Aliev and Professor Baughman is now under provisional Patent Application #20016P1, Dec.8, 2020 “A method and device for patterning nanomaterials”.
