Abstract
A carbon nanotube detection system is disclosed. The detection system is suitable to detect carbon nanotube vibrations. Types of detection systems include but are not limited to: magnetic coupling to a magnetic particle attached at the distal end of the nanotube oscillator, current readout from the nanotube oscillator that has been exposed to electromagnetic radiation or a stress, inductive pick-up coil and corresponding tank circuit, capacitive readout element positioned next to the nanotube oscillator having a charged particle attached at its distal end, an optical beam illumination and detection of its scattering, or combination of any of the above means of detection.
