1. A method of preparing a carbon nanostructure sheet, the method comprising:
providing a slurry that includes carbon nanostructures;
degassing the slurry;
applying the slurry to a substrate, wherein applying the slurry includes using a doctoring member to spread the slurry over the substrate to form a composite nanostructure sheet;
drying the composite nanostructure sheet; and
separating the composite nanostructure sheet from the substrate.
