Single walled carbon nanotubes exhibit advanced electrical and surfaceproperties useful for high performance nanoelectronics. Important to futuremanufacturing of nanotube circuits is large scale assembly of SWNTs intoaligned forms. Despite progress in assembly and oriented synthesis, pristineSWNTs in aligned and close-packed form remain elusive and needed for highcurrent, speed and density devices through collective operations of parallelSWNTs. Here, we develop a Langmuir Blodgett method achieving monolayers ofaligned SWNTs with dense packing, central to which is a non covalent polymerfunctionalization by PmPV imparting high solubility and stability of SWNTs inan organic solvent DCE. Pressure cycling or annealing during LB filmcompression reduces hysteresis and facilitates high degree alignment andpacking of SWNTs characterized by microscopy and polarized Raman spectroscopy.The monolayer SWNTs are readily patterned for device integration bymicrofabrication, enabling the highest currents 3mA through the narrowestregions packed with aligned SWNTs thus far.
