Fabrication of Photodetectors using Transparent Carbon Nanotube Films
Carbon nanotubes are promising nanoscale materials for novel electrical, mechanical, chemical, and biological device and sensors based on its outstanding properties. Single walled carbon nanotubes can be either semiconducting or metallic material depending on its structures. However, controlling the structure is quite challenging with current technologies. For the network formation of the singl...
متن کاملFabrication and characterization of thin films of single-walled carbon nanotube bundles on flexible plastic substrates.
A convenient method to obtain patterns of films of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) bundles on flexible plastic is described. Using the Line Patterning method SWNT films of thickness ranging from approximately 300-1500 nm can be obtained from aqueous surfactant-supported dispersions of chemically purified SWNT bundles synthesized by the pulsed-laser ablation method. These films are strongl...
متن کاملContamination-free and damage-free patterning of single-walled carbon nanotube transparent conductive films on flexible substrates.
High quality patterning of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) transparent conductive films is achieved by a lift-off aluminum interlayer method, which has the advantage of resulting in contamination-free and damage-free SWCNTs. The obtained patterns preserve the electrical properties of the SWCNT films and show promising applications in flexible high frequency electronic and display devices.
متن کاملFlexible organic photovoltaics from zinc oxide nanowires grown on transparent and conducting single walled carbon nanotube thin films
The fabrication of flexible organic photovoltaics (OPVs) which utilize transparent and conducting single walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) thin films as current collecting electrodes on plastic substrates in zinc oxide nanowire (ZnO NW)/poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) bulk heterojunction photovoltaic devices is reported. The bulk heterojunctions for exciton dissociation are created by directly growin...
متن کاملNovel nanotube-on-insulator (NOI) approach toward single-walled carbon nanotube devices.
We present a novel nanotube-on-insulator (NOI) approach for producing high-yield nanotube devices based on aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes. First, we managed to grow aligned nanotube arrays with controlled density on crystalline, insulating sapphire substrates, which bear analogy to industry-adopted silicon-on-insulator substrates. On the basis of the nanotube arrays, we demonstrated reg...
