NEC Prototypes Carbon Nanotube Transistor Coating, Maximum On/Off Current Ratio Reaches Ten to Seventh Power

Abstract:
NEC Corp. has announced it prototyped a field effect transistor (FET) coating using carbon nanotube solution and achieved an on/off source-drain current (comparison of current when the power is on and off) of up to 107 by making channel length longer at the 54th Spring Meeting 2007, the Japan Society of Applied Physics and Related Societies (held at Sagamihara Campus, Aoyama Gakuin University from March 27 to 30, 2007). As an FET channel, NEC used film coating of carbon nanotubes, which were formed using laser ablation and dissolved in an organic solvent.
