The performance of in situ grown Schottky-barrier single wall carbon nanotube field-effect transistors.
Electrical transport measurements were used to study device behavior that results from the interplay of defects and inadvertent contact variance that develops in as-grown semiconducting single wall carbon nanotube devices with nominally identical Au contacts. The transport measurements reveal that as-grown nanotubes contain defects that limit the performance of field-effect transistors with ohm...
متن کاملElectrical and electromagnetic properties of isolated carbon nanotubes and carbon nanotube-based composites
Isolated carbon nanotubes (CNTs), CNT films and CNT-polymer nanocomposites are a new generation of materials with outstanding mechanical, thermal, electrical and electromagnetic properties. The main objective of this article is to provide a comprehensive review on the investigations performed in the field of characterizing electrical and electromagnetic properties of isolated CNTs and CNT-reinf...
متن کاملSchottky-to-Ohmic crossover in carbon nanotube transistor contacts.
For carbon nanotube transistors, as for graphene, the electrical contacts are a key factor limiting device performance. We calculate the device characteristics as a function of nanotube diameter and metal work function. Although the on-state current varies continuously, the transfer characteristics reveal a relatively abrupt crossover from Schottky to Ohmic contacts. We find that typical high-p...
متن کاملRigid/flexible transparent electronics based on separated carbon nanotube thin-film transistors and their application in display electronics.
Transparent electronics has attracted numerous research efforts in recent years because of its promising commercial impact in a wide variety of areas such as transparent displays. High optical transparency as well as good electrical performance is required for transparent electronics. Preseparated, semiconducting enriched carbon nanotubes are excellent candidates for this purpose due to their e...
متن کاملSelf-heating effect modeling of a carbon nanotube-based fieldeffect transistor (CNTFET)
We present the design and simulation of a single-walled carbon nanotube(SWCNT)-based field-effect transistor (FET) using Silvaco TCAD. In this paper, theself-heating effect modeling of the CNT MOSFET structure is performed and comparedwith conventional MOSFET structure having same channel length. The numericalresults are presented to show the self-heating effect on the I...
