Abstract

Single-wall carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNFETs) have been shown to behave as Schottky barrier (SB) devices. It is not clear, however, what factors control the SB size. Here we present the first statistical analysis of this issue. We show that a large data set of more than 100 devices can be consistently accounted by a model that relates the on-current of a CNFET to a tunneling barrier whose height is determined by the nanotube diameter and the nature of the source/drain metal contacts. Our study permits identification of the desired combination of tube diameter and type of metal that provides the optimum performance of a CNFET.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
