US Patent 7428138 - CNT array capacitor plates

http://www.freepatentsonline.com/7428138.html

This is one of a series of patents from Intel focusing on using the high surface to volume ratio of carbon nanotubes to achieve high value capacitors. Claim 1 reads:

1. A capacitor comprising:

a first substrate including a plurality of carbon nanotubes to form a first capacitor plate adapted to be coupled to a first potential; and

a second substrate including a plurality of carbon nanotubes to form a second capacitor plate, adapted to be coupled to a second potential opposite to the first potential, intermeshed with said nanotubes on the first substrate.
