Abstract :
There has been great interest in exploring the effective manipulation methods to build miniaturized system, devices, structures and machines in nanoscale. In this paper, a novel nanomanipulation system based on dynamic force microscope has been developed, that can be used to position and orient multiwall carbon nanotubes on the dynamic force probe model. The physical principles of the dynamic force probe model are described. And the nanomanipulation system based on the nanoscale operation approach is introduced. Some typical nanomanipulation experiments show that multiwall carbon nanotubes can be reliably positioned and oriented, that illustrated the effectiveness of such method and the nanomanipulation system.
