Pronounced hysteresis and high charge storage stability of single-walled carbon nanotube-based field-effect transistors
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this letter, pronounced hysteresis loops were observed in single-walled carbon nanotube-based field-effect transistors CNTFETs . The shift in threshold voltage was found to increase with increasing gate voltage sweep ranges. A significant enhancement in the charge storage stability over 14 days was obtained at room temperature after a two-stage hydrogen and air annealing process was applied to the CNTFETs. The passivation of interface traps by annealing in hydrogen and the removal of physisorption solvent molecules by annealing in air are suggested to be responsible for the improvement of the charge storage stability. © 2005 American Institute of Physics.

Advances in NO2 sensing with individual single-walled carbon nanotube transistors
The charge carrier transport in carbon nanotubes is highly sensitive to certain molecules attached to their surface. This property has generated interest for their application in sensing gases, chemicals and biomolecules. With over a decade of research, a clearer picture of the interactions between the carbon nanotube and its surroundings has been achieved. In this review, we intend to summariz...
متن کاملA measurement technique for circumventing hysteresis and conductance drift in carbon nanotube field-effect transistors.
We present a measurement protocol that effectively eliminates both the hysteresis and the temporal drift typically observed in the channel conductance of single-walled carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (SWNT FETs) during the application of gate voltages. Before each resistance measurement, the gate is first stepped through a series of alternating positive and negative voltages to produce...

We demonstrate a fabrication method for high-performance field-effect transistors (FETs) based on dry-processed random single-walled carbon nanotube networks (CNTNs) deposited at room temperature. This method is an advantageous alternative to solution-processed and direct CVD grown CNTN FETs, which allows using various substrate materials, including heat-intolerant plastic substrates, and enabl...

In this study, kinetics and mechanism of the sulfur dioxide adsorption on the single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) are investigated. Three single-walled carbon nanotubes, including the armchair (6,6), chiral (6,5) and zigzag (6,0) CNTs were chosen as the models and the different orientations of SO2 molecule relative to the CNT axis were considered. The B3LYP functional within the 6-3...
