Dry micro-electro-discharge machining of carbon-nanotube forests using sulphur-hexafluoride
The effect of using sulphur hexafluoride (SF6), a high-dielectric-strength gas, for dry micro-electro-discharge machining (μEDM) of carbon-nanotube (CNT) forests is investigated. It is found that SF6 enables μEDM of CNTs without O2, which is known to be essential for CNT machining in N2. The process...
