Electron field emission measurements have been made on multiwall arc discharge carbon nanotubes embedded in a conjugated polymer host. Electron emission at low nanotube content is observed and attributed to an enhancement of the applied electric field at the polymer/nanotube/vacuum interface where the electron supply through the film is attributed to fluctuation induced tunneling in a disordere...

We studied the optical properties of aligned carbon nanotube mats for photonic device applications. We employed ab-initio density functional calculations in the linear combination of atomic orbital formalism. The calculated dielectric functions of the semiconducting carbon nanotube mats show a strong anisotropy when the electric field of the light is parallel or perpendicular to the tube axes. ...

The purpose of this work is to present elements of a design tool for field emission displays using carbon nanotubes as emitters. We use a continuum model to describe the carbon nanotubes and we use a locally one-dimensional approximation to calculate the emission current. We investigate the emission current to voltage characteristic, screening effects and the lateral spread of the emission curr...

The formation of carbon nanotube and superconductor composites makes it possible to produce new and/or improved functionalities that the individual material does not possess. Here we show that coating carbon nanotube forests with superconducting niobium carbide (NbC) does not destroy the microstructure of the nanotubes. NbC also shows much improved superconducting properties such as a higher ir...

The Field Effect Transistor using nanotechnology is known as Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistors (CNTFET). Which promising nano-scaled devices for implementing high performance very dense and low power circuits. A Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistor refers to a FET with a single CNT or an array of CNT's as the channel material instead of bulk silicon in the traditional MOSFET structure...

The gate dependence of a Coulomb attractive random telegraph signal is observed in a single-walled carbon nanotube field effect transistor for temperatures varying from 0.32 to 24 K. The mechanism of the Coulomb attractive random telegraph signal is attributed to the carrier tunneling between the carbon nanotube and the Coulomb attractive defect. The random telegraph signal is also studied unde...
