Radiation Effects in Carbon Nanoelectronics

We experimentally investigate the effects of Co-60 irradiation on the electrical properties of single-walled carbon nanotube and graphene field-effect transistors. We observe significant differences in the radiation response of devices depending on their irradiation environment, and confirm that, under controlled conditions, standard dielectric hardening approaches are applicable to carbon nano...

Transfer printing approach to all-carbon nanoelectronics

Transfer printing methods are used to pattern and assemble monolithic carbon nanotube (CNT) thin-film transistors on large-area transparent, flexible substrates. Airbrushed CNT thin-films with sheet resistance 1 kX sq 1 at 80% transparency were used as electrodes, and high quality chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown CNT networks were used as the semiconductor component. Transfer printing was ...

Review of carbon nanotube nanoelectronics and macroelectronics

Carbon nanotubes have the potential to spur future development in electronics due to their unequalled electrical properties. In this article, we present a review on carbon nanotube-based circuits in terms of their electrical performance in two major directions: nanoelectronics and macroelectronics. In the nanoelectronics direction, we direct our discussion to the performance of aligned carbon n...

Engineered Carbon Nanotubes and Graphene for Nanoelectronics and Nanomechanics

We are exploring nanoelectronic engineering areas based on low dimensional materials, including carbon nanotubes and graphene. Our primary research focus is investigating carbon nanotube and graphene architectures for field emission applications, energy harvesting and sensing. In a second effort, we are developing a high-throughput desktop nanolithography process. Lastly, we are studying nanome...
