Substrate adhesion evolves non-monotonically with processing time in millimeter-scale aligned carbon nanotube arrays

Abstract

Aligned carbon nanotube (CNT) array adhesion strength evolves with CNT process time, decreasing and then increasing during growth and annealing, as captured by models relating CNT diameter, array effective modulus, and CNT–substrate work of adhesion.
