Abstract
A method provides a simple yet reliable technique to assemble one-dimensional nanostructures selectively in a desired pattern for device applications. The method comprises forming a plurality of spaced apart conductive elements () in a sequential pattern () on a substrate () and immersing the plurality of spaced apart conductive elements () in a solution () comprising a plurality of one-dimensional nanostructures (). A voltage is applied to one of the plurality of spaced apart conductive elements () formed in the sequential pattern (), thereby causing portions of the plurality of one-dimensional nanostructures () to migrate between adjacent conductive elements () in sequence beginning with the one of the plurality of spaced apart conductive elements () to which the voltage is applied.
