纳米技术的尺寸严格微型化正在不断产生新的应用和新的物理效应。我们在这里表明，一旦这些薄膜从其基底上释放出来，纳米管就可以由几乎任何材料的固体薄膜在几乎任何位置形成。这种卓越的设计灵活性具有有益的意义，包括纳米尺度的流体输送和毛细管现象，以及提供将基础研究扩展到新的多样性材料、材料系统和几何形状的机会。
The rigorous size miniaturization of nanotechnology is continually generating new applications and new physical effects. We show here that nanotubes can be formed from thin solid films of almost any material at almost any position, once these films are released from their substrate. This exceptional design flexibility has useful implications, including for fluid transportation and capillarity on the nanometre scale, as well as offering the opportunity to extend fundamental investigations to a new diversity of materials, material systems and geometries.
