<p>An apparatus ( 50 ) and method is provided for growing a network of common diameter nanotubes ( 24 ). The apparatus comprises chemically functionalizing a portion ( 16 ) of a substrate ( 12 ); anchoring catalyst nanoparticles ( 22 ), each having substantially the same diameter, on the portion ( 16 ) of the substrate ( 12 ); and growing overlapping carbon nanotubes ( 24 ), each having substantially the same diameter, on the catalyst nanoparticles ( 22 ).</p> |
