Photocurrent imaging of charge transport barriers in carbon nanotube devices.
The realization of high-performance electrical devices incorporating single-wall carbon nanotubes critically depends on the minimization of charge transport barriers in the tubes and at the contacts. Herein we demonstrate photocurrent imaging as a fast and effective tool to locate such barriers within individual metallic nanotubes contacted by metal electrodes. The locally induced photocurrents...
متن کاملCarbon nanotube junctions and devices Carbon nanotube junctions and devices
Carbon nanotubes are molecules entirely made of carbon atoms. Owing to their special shape, they are extremely stiff but also very flexible. The electronic properties are determined by the exact symmetry of the nanotube lattice, resulting in either metallic or semiconducting behavior. Due to their small diameter, electronic motion is directed in the length direction of the nanotube, making them...
متن کاملSingle electron charge sensitivity of liquid-gated carbon nanotube transistors.
Random telegraph signals corresponding to activated charge traps were observed with liquid-gated CNT FETs. The high signal-to-noise ratio that we observe demonstrates that single electron charge sensing is possible with CNT FETs in liquids at room temperature. We have characterized the gate-voltage dependence of the random telegraph signals and compared to theoretical predictions. The gate-volt...
متن کاملSuspended single-walled carbon nanotube fluidic sensors.
In this paper, we demonstrate the fabrication of liquid flow sensors employing partially suspended single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). We have found that the sign of the conductance change in SWNT flow sensors is not influenced by the direction of water flow for both supported and suspended devices. Therefore, the streaming potential is not the principal mechanism of the SWNT sensor respons...
متن کاملOptoelectronic Probes of Suspended Carbon Nanotube Transistors
Suspended carbon nanotube transistors are used as nanoscale optoelectronic probes to investigate the electrical and optical processes in biological systems due to their high sensitivity, robust electrochemical stability, and high surface to volume ratio. Taking advantage of dual-optical trapping technique and scanning photocurrent microscopy, we are able to study the interface between carbon na...
