Abstract
Single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) exhibit ultrahigh aspect ratios that can lead to devices and systems with extremely anisotropic mechanical, electrical, thermal, and optical properties if macroscopic ensemble of aligned nanotubes can be made. However, it still remains to be a significant challenge to control the orientation direction of CNTs in 3D structures. Here, we use two photon polymerization (TPP) lithography to fabricate 3D structures containing aligned SWCNTs [1, 2].
