Circuit model of carbon-nanotube inks for microelectronic and microwave tunable devices

Summary form only given, as follows. An electrical model of a carbon nanotube “inkjet”-able suspension is proposed and validated through measurements. Both the DC resistance and the resonance frequency of the structure can be selected ad hoc (from tens of kΩ to tens of Ω and from few MHz to tens of MHz, respectively). Thus, by exploiting the suggested equivalent circuit, the CNT ink deposition process can be considered as a promising candidate for the design of microelectronic and microwave devices with customized behavior.
