Abstract
This paper presented a method for multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) fusion induced by electron beam irradiation inside scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The MWCNT was picked up from CNT bulk by nanorobotics manipulation system. The electron beam irradiation was introduced at the joint of two free end of MWCNTs. C-C bonds at the ends of CNTs were fused together. The method of this paper presented that before fusion the tensile force of the junction was about 20 nN before fusion, however, the tensile force of fused muliwalled carbon nanotubes was about 100 nN. The tensile force of fusion MWCNTs reached 70 percent of the original MWCNT's.
