摘要: The authors report the behavior of a nanoscale parallel-guiding mechanism wherein compliant components are single-walled carbon nanotubes. Parallel-guiding mechanisms often building blocks macro- and microscale mechanical systems. present results that provide insight into performance for devices. device exhibits range over 75% size, i.e., 5.5nm, when actuated with 6.4nN. Below 3.6nN, displacements due to bulk elastic bending Above 5.2nN, governed by hingelike kinks in van der Waals forces shown cause direction-dependent behavior.
