Trap-induced apparent linearity of CNTFETs (invited)

Haferlach M., Claus M., TU Dresden, DE

Compared to conventional bulk semiconductors carbon nanotubes (CNTs) possess a number of properties which may make CNT technology superior for certain applications. In particular, the one-dimensional (1D) transport in CNTs leads not only to a [...]

Critical review of CNTFET compact models

Claus M., Haferlach M., Gross D., Technische Universität Dresden, DE

The very recent progress in manufacturing carbon nanotube transistors (CNTFETs) makes these transistors attractive for analog HF circuit applications for which adequate compact models accurately describing the transistor behavior are needed. So far, most models [...]

Design study of CNT transistors layouts for high frequency analog circuits

Claus M., Technische Universität Dresden, DE

CNTFET technology is examined for high speed analog circuits. Design guidelines are deduced based on a realistic extrinsic circuit model. Moreover, numerical device simulations are used to derive specifications for CNTFET compact models suitable for [...]
