Abstract

A method to fabricate nanoscale pipes suitable for fluidic transport was reported. It was found that the vertically aligned carbon nanofibers grown by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition were used as sacrificial templates. A high level of control over the nanopipe location, number, length and diameter was provided by this method, permitting them to be deterministically positioned on a substrate and arranged into arrays.
