Carbon-based Nanostructures for Flexible Electronics

Carbon nanotube and graphene are potential candidate materials for nanoelectronics applications due to their tolerance to electromigration under high current densities and excellent electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties. In this paper, we address the key challenges for integrating carbon-based nanostructures in flexible electronics. Toward this end, we review both the applications of nanocarbon materials as passive components and active components, and address the common problems in nanocarbon electronics. We further explore the potential of an all-carbon nanostructure for various electronic device applications.
