    摘要: Embodiments of a method and apparatus for removing metallic nanotubes without transferring CNTs from one substrate to another substrate provide two methods of transferring a thin layer of crystalline ST-cut quartz wafer to the surface of a carrier silicon wafer for subsequent CNT growth, without resorting to CNT transfer. In other words, embodiments of a method and apparatus allow CNTs to be grown on the same substrate that metallic nanotube removal is performed, therefore eliminating the costly and messy step of transferring CNTs from one substrate to another. This is achieved through a residual thin layer of crystalline ST-cut quartz layer on a silicon wafer. The ST-cut quartz wafer promotes aligned growth of CNTs, while the underlying silicon wafer allows backgate burnout.
