ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is a method of orienting a carbon nanotube comprising functionalizing a nucleic acid or a carbon nanotube with a plurality of functional groups to form either a functionalized nucleic acid or a functionalized carbon nanotube; disposing a nucleic acid on a functionalized carbon nanotube or a functionalized nucleic acid on a carbon nanotube or a functionalized nucleic acid on a functionalized carbon nanotube to form a nucleic acid-carbon nanotube molecular composite; adsorbing the nucleic acid-carbon nanotube molecular composite upon a substrate; the substrate comprising a plurality of material phases, at least one of which the nucleic acid-carbon nanotube molecular composite has an affinity for; and orienting the nucleic acid-carbon nanotube molecular composite so that it contacts two or more identical material phases.
