Abstract
Recent research has demonstrated that carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have excellent emission and absorption characteristics, leading to dipole-like radiation behavior, which makes CNTs promising alternatives for use as antennas in on-chip wireless communication. This article reviews the key characteristics of CNTs that make them so well suited for this purpose.
