Molecular electronics with carbon nanotubes.
Carbon nanotubes have unique properties that make them a most promising system on which to base molecular electronics. We briefly review the electrical characteristics of carbon nanotubes, and then focus on carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNTFETs). Procedures by which hole-transport, electron-transport and ambipolar CNTFETs can be fabricated are presented, and their electrical charact...
متن کاملGrowth, modification and integration of carbon nanotubes into molecular electronics
Molecules are the smallest possible elements for electronic devices, with active elements for such devices typically a few Angstroms in footprint area. Owing to the possibility of producing ultrahigh density devices, tremendous effort has been invested in producing electronic junctions by using various types of molecules. The major issues for molecular electronics include (1) developing an effe...
متن کاملOrganic functionalisation and characterisation of single-walled carbon nanotubes.
Since carbon nanotubes (CNTs) display unique structures and remarkable physical properties, a variety of applications have emerged in both materials and life sciences. In terms of applications, the functionalisation of nanotubes is extremely important, as it increases their solubility and processability, and combines the unique properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with those of...
متن کاملRemoval of amorphous carbon for the efficient sidewall functionalisation of single-walled carbon nanotubes.
The sidewall functionalisation of carbon nanotubes using the standard nitric acid treatment can be greatly enhanced by first removing the amorphous carbon present in the sample.
متن کاملCarbon nanotubes and graphene towards soft electronics
Although silicon technology has been the main driving force for miniaturizing device dimensions to improve cost and performance, the current application of Si to soft electronics (flexible and stretchable electronics) is limited due to material rigidity. As a result, various prospective materials have been proposed to overcome the rigidity of conventional Si technology. In particular, nano-carb...
