  • Abstract
    The quantum-mechanical Schrodinger equation, implemented in an NEGF (non-equilibrium Green´s function) framework, is solved self-consistently with the Poisson equation to study the impact of the distance between the tubes (pitch) on the high-frequency (RF) performance of array-based, carbon nanotube, field-effect transistors.
