Mechanical stress relaxation in adhesively clamped carbon nanotube resonators

We report a detailed experimental investigation of the adhesive clamping instability in CNT nanoresonators fabricated on silicon wafers with palladium electrodes and suspended CNT channels. The nanotube is clamped down onto the palladium electrodes adhesively by van der Waals forces and operates in...
