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…
For carbon nanotube transistors, as for graphene, the electrical contacts are a key factor limiting device performance. We calculate the device characteristics as a function of nanotube diameter and metal workfunction. Although the on-state…
Suspended single-walled carbon nanotube devices comprised of high quality electrical contacts and two electrostatic gates per device are obtained. Compared to nanotubes pinned on substrates, the suspended devices exhibit little hysteresis…
As the conventional silicon metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) approaches its scaling limits; many novel device structures are being extensively explored. Among them, the silicon nanowire transistor (SNWT) has…
The p-n junction diode and field-effect transistor (FET) are the two most ubiquitous building blocks of modern electronics and optoelectronics. In recent years, the emergence of reduced dimensionality materials has suggested that these…
While decreasing the oxide thickness in carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNFETs) improves the turn-on behavior, we demonstrate that this also requires scaling the range of the drain voltage. This scaling is needed to avoid an…
The attachment of semiconducting nanoparticles to carbon nanotubes is one of the most challenging subjects in nanotechnology. Successful high coverage attachment and control over the charge transfer mechanism and photo-current generation…

We describe a method to fabricate clean suspended single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) transistors hosting a single quantum dot ranging in length from a few 10s of nm down to $\approx$ 3 nm. We first align narrow gold bow-tie junctions on…
Field-effect phototransistors were fabricated based on individual carbon nanotubes (CNTs) sensitized by CH$_3$NH$_3$PbI$_3$ nanowires (MAPbI$_3$NW). These devices represent light responsivities of R=7.7x10$^5$ A/W at low-lighting conditions…
A fresh look on carbon-based transistor channel materials like single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) and graphene nanoribbons (GNR) in future electronic applications is given. Although theoretical predictions initially promised that GNR…

Light emission from nanostructures exhibits rich quantum effects and has broad applications. Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are one-dimensional (1D) metals or semiconductors, in which large number of electronic states in a narrow…
A series of solid organic acids were used to p-dope carbon nanotubes. The extent of doping is shown to be dependent on the pKa value of the acids. Highly fluorinated carboxylic acids and sulfonic acids are very effective in shifting the…
