We show that carbon nanotube transistors operate as unconventional "Schottky barrier transistors", in which transistor action occurs primarily by varying the contact resistance rather than the channel conductance. Transistor characteristics…

We present self-consistent, non-equilibrium Green's function calculations of the characteristics of short channel carbon nanotube transistors, focusing on the regime of ballistic transport with ohmic contacts. We first establish that the…

We show that carbon nanotube transistors exhibit scaling that is qualitatively different than conventional transistors. The performance depends in an unexpected way on both the thickness and the dielectric constant of the gate oxide.…

We report a numerical study of the tunnel conductance through the Schottky barrier at the contact between a semiconducting carbon nanotube and a metal electrode. In a planar gate model the asymmetry between the p--doped and the n--doped…

Electronic properties of metal-finite semiconducting carbon nanotube interfaces are studied as a function of the nanotube length using a self-consistent tight-binding theory. We find that the shape of the potential barrier depends on the…

High performance enhancement mode semiconducting carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNTFETs) are obtained by combining ohmic metal-tube contacts, high dielectric constant HfO2 films as gate insulators, and electrostatically doped…

We performed a comprehensive scaling study of Schottky barrier carbon nanotube transistors using self-consistent, atomistic scale simulations. We restrict our attention to Schottky barrier carbon nanotube FETs whose metal source/drain is…

We use numerical simulations to investigate the effect of electrostatics on the source and drain contacts of carbon nanotube field-effect transistors. We find that unscreened charge on the nanotube at the contact-channel interface leads to…

With decreasing device dimensions, the performance of carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNFETs) is limited by high Off currents except at low drain voltages. We show that an asymmetric design improves the performance, reducing Off…
