The invention relates to novel nanoparticles comprising a metal core containing at least one platinoid or an alloy of a platinoid, a first organic coating formed from molecules attached to the surface of the metal core, and a second organic coating formed from molecules different from...
1) Grow the nanotubes on a separate substrate, then stamp them onto the circuit. This lets the circuit stay at low temperatures. By contrast, nanotubes are single, precise molecules being assembled to build up useful larger systems. This is a lot closer to the original meaning of the word.
