Nanotube electronics beyond the CMOS-scaling

This paper discusses about carbon nanotube electronics despite the fact that carbon nanotube transistors are seen by many as a leading contender for device alternative to the silicon CMOS. Much of the great and growing enthusiasm in nanotube electronics arises from the realization that nanootubes offer a number of remarkable properties that are superior for electronic devices and are rarely found all in one single material. The nanometric diameter, the extreme mobility and ballistic conduction, the unmatched thermal conductivity, and the chemical inertness are some of the best known.
