  • Abstract
    In this paper, we review the current status of CNT interconnect research, from both fabrication and modeling aspects. The fabrication issues of vertical and horizontal CNT interconnects and remaining challenges are discussed. State-of-the-art in both SWCNT and MWCNT modeling and performance analysis are presented. In addition, high-frequency effects, off-chip application, and process variation of CNT interconnects have also been discussed.
