Abstract:
The present invention provides novel tank circuits that are totally passive, and they are made of conductive-grade carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on substrates, and preferably flexible substrates. These components and structures contain no traditional electronic materials such as silicon, metal oxides, or ceramics, and they are totally organic. They may be used in applications where the resonant frequency and amplitude of the sensor can be modulated by a thermal, mechanical, or chemical signal, such as temperature, strain, pressure, vibration, or humidity. All-organic, and consequently combustible, passive RF sensors have unique applications for defense and consumer industries.

Abstract:
A fabricated substrate has at least one plurality of posts. The plurality is fabricated such that the two posts are located at a predetermined distance from one another. The substrate is exposed to a fluid matrix containing functionalized carbon nanotubes. The functionalized carbon nanotubes preferentially adhere to the plurality of posts rather than the remainder of the substrate. A connection between posts of the at least one plurality of posts is induced by adhering one end of the functionalized nanotube to one post and a second end of the functionalized carbon nanotube to a second post.
