Characterization of the Resistance and Force of a Carbon Nanotube/Metal Side Contact by Nanomanipulation

<div>Measurement of total resistance of the CNT/Au side contact before EBID. (a) CNT selection and pick-up. (b) Magnification of the picked CNT and EBID deposits on C1. (c) Bridging of the CNT to C2.
