Abstract
The unique physicochemical properties of the carbon nanotubes give wide prospects for their application in various fields of science and technology. The one of main problems that researchers face is the necessity to align nanotubes in the right direction. A simple and universal method is dielectrophoresis based on the impact of an alternating non-uniform electric field on polarizable particles, resulting in an ordered distribution of a lot of carbon nanotubes between the electrodes. Present talk represents the results of studying the influence of electric field parameters (amplitude and frequency) on the alignment of carbon nanotube (CNT) chains. The purpose of the study is to find out the values of the alternating electric field at which CNTs will be best aligned.The unique physicochemical properties of the carbon nanotubes give wide prospects for their application in various fields of science and technology.
