With the development of nano materials, a novel research field of NEMS forms by combining nano materials, nano-structures and nano fabrication with MEMS. Carbon nanotube (CNT) is a kind of one-dimensional nano structures which has unique mechanical, electrical and chemical properties. Using CNTs, new nano-devices with new principle or high performance would be developed. This paper reviews the assembly methods of one dimensional nanostructure and analyzes the characteristics of various methods, which provides reference for the device manufacturing methods using nanotubes/nanowires.

Determination of an injection condition which is minimally invasive to the cell membrane is of great importance in drug and gene delivery. For this purpose, a series of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are conducted to study the penetration of a carbon nanotube (CNT) into a pure POPC cell membrane under various injection velocities, CNT tilt angles and chirality parameters. The simulations are nonequilibrium and all-atom. The force and stress exerted on the nanotube, deformation of the lipid bilayer, and strain of the CNT atoms are inspected during the simulations. We found that a lower nanotube velocity results in successfully entering the membrane with minimum disruption in the CNT and the lipid bilayer, and CNT's chirality distinctly affects the results. Moreover, it is shown that the tilt angle of the CNT influences the nanotube's buckling and may result in destroying the membrane structure during the injection process.
