What Promises do Nanotubes and Nanowires Hold for Future Nanoelectronics Applications?

Online Presentations | 18 Feb 2008 | Contributor(s): Joerg Appenzeller

Various low-dimensional materials are currently explored for future electronics applications. The common ground for all these structures is that the surface related impact can no longer be ignored – the common approach applied to predict properties of bulk-type three-dimensional (3D) materials....

Logic Devices and Circuits on Carbon Nanotubes

Online Presentations | 05 Apr 2006 | Contributor(s): Joerg Appenzeller

Over the last years carbon nanotubes (CNs) have attracted an increasing interest as building blocks for nano-electronics applications. Due to their unique properties enabling e.g. ballistic transport at room-temperature over several hundred nanometers, high performance CN field-effect transistors...

Electronic Transport in Semi-conducting Carbon Nanotube Transistor Devices

Online Presentations | 16 Oct 2003 | Contributor(s): Joerg Appenzeller

Recent demonstrations of high performance carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNFETs) highlight their potential for a future nanotube-based electronics. Besides being just a nanometer in diameter, carbon nanotubes offer intrinsic advantages if compared with silicon that are responsible for...
