Abstract
HBC nanotube bundle is trapped and mechanically tested by MEMS tweezers. HBC nanotube is macromolecule which has helical structure. Molecular Tweezers and Tweezers for Electron Microscopy (EM tweezers) is used for trapping HBC nanotube bundle. Dielectrophoresis is used for trapping by Molecular tweezers. Electron Microscopy observation is capable during tensile test using EM tweezers. We have successfully measured 1MPa in young's modulus of HBC nanotube by two type tweezers.
