Abstract :
Various nano-devices based on vertical nanotubes were developed. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were employed as a functional part or a nano structure of a nanoelectromechanical (NEM) switch, nano-capacitor, and NEM-dynamic random access memory (DRAM). The unique vertical structure of nanotubes allows high integration density for devices.
