DNA-linker-induced surface assembly of ultra dense parallel single walled carbon nanotube arrays.

Ultrathin film preparations of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) allow economical utilization of nanotube properties in electronics applications. Recent advances have enabled production of micrometer scale SWNT transistors and sensors but scaling these devices down to the nanoscale, and improving the coupling of SWNTs to other nanoscale components, may require techniques that can generate a greater degree of nanoscale geometric order than has thus far been achieved. Here, we introduce linker-induced surface assembly, a new technique that uses small structured DNA linkers to assemble solution dispersed nanotubes into parallel arrays on charged surfaces. Parts of our linkers act as spacers to precisely control the internanotube separation distance down to <3 nm and can serve as scaffolds to position components such as proteins between adjacent parallel nanotubes. The resulting arrays can then be stamped onto other substrates. Our results demonstrate a new paradigm for the self-assembly of anisotropic colloidal nanomaterials into ordered structures and provide a potentially simple, low cost, and scalable route for preparation of exquisitely structured parallel SWNT films with applications in high-performance nanoscale switches, sensors, and meta-materials.
