Abstract
This paper presents simulations of fT for short-channel carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNFETs). To more accurately account for the propagation velocity in our effective-mass Schrodinger-Poisson solver, an energy-dependent effective mass m*(E) is introduced, but extending it to apply to the entire band structure, rather than only to the bandgap region.
