In the last three decades, zero-dimensional, one-dimensional, and two-dimensional carbon
nanomaterials (ie, fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, and graphene, respectively) have attracted …

Currently, nanotechnology is referred to be one of the attractive research sectors in several
countries because of its vast potential and commercial impact. Nanotechnology includes the …

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are nearly ideal one-dimensional (1D) systems, with diameters of
only 1–3 nm and lengths that can be on the scale of centimetres. Depending on the …

State-of-the-art carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNFETs) behave as Schottky-
barrier-modulated transistors. It is known that vertical scaling of the gate oxide significantly …

The majority of the world energy consumption is derived from fossil fuels. The conversion
reactions required for retrieving energy from carbon resources result in the production of …

We calculate the electron-phonon scattering and binding in semiconducting carbon
nanotubes, within a tight-binding model. The mobility is derived using a multiband …

We used the high local electric fields at the junction between the suspended and supported
parts of a single carbon nanotube molecule to produce unusually bright infrared emission …

Among the many materials that have been proposed to supplement and, in the long run,
possibly succeed Si as a basis for nanoelectronics, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have attracted …

We report optical scanning measurements on photocurrent in individual Si nanowire field
effect transistors (SiNW FETs). We observe increases in the conductance of more than 2 …

We find that the optical properties of carbon nanotubes reflect remarkably strong effects of
exciton-phonon coupling. Tight-binding calculations show that a significant fraction of the …
