            Abstract : 
In this work, a schematic model of single-walled silicon nanotube (SWSiNT) devices is presented aimed at advancing the understanding of nano-electronic field. The circuit model of one-dimensional SWSiNT devices is firstly proposed. The cutoff frequency of SWSiNT devices is obtained, opening up the possibility of a THz silicon nanotube transistor.
