Abstract :
Many studies have suggested the potential applications of carbon nanotubes (CNT) in conventional analogue radiofrequency (RF) technology. This is due in part to near-ballistic electron transport and expected high frequency performance. In this paper, we will present the latest understanding of the potential applications of nanotubes in this broad application area.
