20080197766 | Method For Making Nanostructures - A process for making nanostructures on a support, including: supplying a support including a surface layer on one of its faces, covering the surface layer by a catalyst layer structured according to a pattern exposing areas of the surface layer covered by the catalyst and areas of the surface layer not covered by the catalyst, etching the thickness of the surface layer in the areas not covered by the catalyst layer, and selectively growing nanostructures on the areas of the surface layer covered by the catalyst. The process can also be used to make cathode structures with electrically independent nanostructures. | 08-21-2008 |
