Abstract

A simple and general technique for producing a suspended
nanofiber has been developed using coordinate markers and a
sacrificial layer of poly(methylmethacrylate). The simple
procedure does not involve etching processes or chemical vapor
deposition and makes it easier to investigate the physical
properties of nanofibers in a suspended configuration. As a
demonstration, a suspended carbon nanotube rope was fabricated
and Young's modulus was determined to be 0.4 TPa from the force
calibration of an atomic force microscope. (C) 2002 American
