Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Integrated circuits composed of metallic and semiconducting carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are expected to become the ultimate device to break the limitations of existing technologies. In this research, we aimed to develop basic technology for aligning CNTs at the nm level by combining nanostructure formation utilizing the self-organization of DNA and recognition of CNT by specific DNA. As a result, it was revealed that DNA distinguishes between CNT enantiomers and it is necessary to use single-structure semiconducting CNTs which also separated the enantiomers for nm-alignment of CNTs with DNA. We also conducted the structure separation of metallic CNTs for conducting wire and realized enrichment of (10,4) metallic CNTs and enantiomer separation for the first time as metallic CNTs.
