Methods in accordance with this invention form a microelectronic structure by forming a carbon nano-tube ("CNT") layer, and forming a carbon layer ("carbon liner") above the CNT layer, wherein the carbon liner comprises: (1) a first portion disposed above and in contact with the CNT layer; and/or (2) a second portion disposed in and/or around one or more carbon nano-tubes in the CNT layer. Numerous other aspects are provided.
