Carbon Nanotube Electronics: Modeling, Physics, and Applications

30 Oct 2006 | Publications | Contributor(s): Jing Guo

In recent years, significant progress in understanding the physics of carbon nanotube electronic devices and in identifying potential applications has occurred. In a nanotube, low bias transport can be nearly ballistic across distances of several hundred nanometers. Deposition of high-κ …

Towards Multi-Scale Modeling of Carbon Nanotube Transistors

20 Sep 2006 | Publications | Contributor(s): Jing Guo, Supriyo Datta, Mark Lundstrom, M. P. Anantram

Multiscale simulation approaches are needed in order to address scientific and technological questions in the rapidly developing field of carbon nanotube electronics. In this paper, we describe an effort underway to develop a comprehensive capability for multiscale simulation of carbon …

Theory of Ballistic Nanotransistors

27 Nov 2002 | Publications | Contributor(s): Anisur Rahman, Jing Guo, Supriyo Datta, Mark Lundstrom

Numerical simulations are used to guide the development of a simple analytical theory for ballistic field-effect transistors. When two-dimensional electrostatic effects are small, (and when the insulator capacitance is much less than the semiconductor (quantum) capacitance), the model reduces to …
