Preferential syntheses of semiconducting vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes for direct use in FETs.
We have combined fast heating with plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) for preferential growth of semiconducting vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (VA-SWNTs). Raman spectroscopic estimation indicated a high yield of up to 96% semiconducting SWNTs in the VA-SWNT array. The as-synthesized semiconducting SWNTs can be used directly for fabricating FET devices without t...
متن کاملA Growth Mechanism for Vertically Aligned Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
One of the difficulties in developing practical nanotube-based devices is the large-scale production of aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Due to their novel electronic and thermal properties, single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs) show great potential for use a variety of applications . The alignment of SWNTs has been reported, but only parallel to the substrate in the presence of strong electric or ma...
متن کاملSelective growth of well-aligned semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes.
High-density arrays of perfectly aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) consisting almost exclusively of semiconducting nanotubes were grown on ST-cut single crystal quartz substrates. Raman spectroscopy together with electrical measurements of field effect transistors (FETs) fabricated from the as-grown samples showed that over 95% of the nanotubes in the arrays are semiconducting. The...
متن کاملDiameter modulation of vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes.
We demonstrate wide-range diameter modulation of vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) using a wet chemistry prepared catalyst. In order to ensure compatibility to electronic applications, the current minimum mean diameter of 2 nm for vertically aligned SWNTs is challenged. The mean diameter is decreased to about 1.4 nm by reducing Co catalyst concentrations to 1/100 or by i...
متن کاملGrowth Process of Vertically Aligned Single-walled Carbon Nanotubes
The growth process of vertically aligned single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) films was investigated by means of in situ optical analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The measurements reveal that the growth of the SWNT film decreases after longer reaction times. This decrease is attributed to a combination of a diminishing growth rate and burning of the SWNTs due to oxygen in the growth ch...
