Fabrication of carbon nanotube-based field-effect transistors for studies of their memory effects
2007
Carbon nanotube‐based field‐effect transistors (CNTFETs) have been fabricated using nanometer thin dielectric material as the gate insulator film. The demonstrated fabrication technique is highly suitable for preparing devices with low contact resistances between the electrodes and the carbon nanotube, down to 14 kΩ. Electronic transport measurements of the fabricated devices have been conducted on more than 70 FETs. Hysteretic behavior in the transfer characteristics of some CNTFETs was observed.
Surface plasmon effects on carbon nanotube field effect transistors
2011
Herein, we experimentally demonstrate surface plasmon polariton (SPP) induced changes in the conductivity of a carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNT FET). SPP excitation is done via Kretschmann configuration while the measured CNT FET is situated on the opposite side of the metal layer away from the laser, but within reach of the launched SPPs. We observe a shift of 0.4 V in effective gate voltage. SPP-intermediated desorption of physisorbed oxygen from the device is discussed as a likely explanation of the observed effect. This effect is visible even at low SPP intensities and within a near-infrared range. peerReviewed
Carbon Nanotube Radio-Frequency Single-Electron Transistor
2004
We discuss the theory of the radio-frequency single-electron transistor and the measurements that use multiwalled carbon nanotubes as active elements. Our devices made of plasma-enhanced chemical-vapor-deposition nanotubes yield charge sensitivities of 10-20 μe/ $$\sqrt {Hz}$$ . PACS numbers: 73.23.Hk, 73.63.Fg, 85.35.Gv, 85.35.Kt.
