July 12, 2007 — Xidex Corp. has been awarded a new contract from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to develop Selective Nanotube Etching, a process designed for manufacturing carbon nanotube (CNT) devices.
The project will enhance Xidex’s CNT device manufacturing process and produce a new tool that other nanodevice developers can use for product fabrication or repair. Xidex will work in collaboration with The University of Texas at Austin’s Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, and the University of Tennessee’s Department of Materials Science and Engineering.
