Feasibility study on in situ CCVD grown CNTs for field-effect power device applications

Abstract

In this paper we investigate the feasibility of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for power applications. On the basis of a process which fabricates thousands of carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNTFETs) by means of catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CCVD) we will show that CNTFETs are capable to provide a sufficiently high current to drive a light-emitting diode (LED).
