Abstract :
We briefly review the electronic properties of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and present results on the fabrication and characteristics of carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNTFETs) and simple integrated circuits. A novel approach allowing the catalyst-free synthesis of oriented CNTs is also presented.
