Abstract :
A fabrication technique using dielectrophoresis is demonstrated to align semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (s-SWCNTs) and improve electronic devices performance. The proposed method produces highly dense aligned nanotubes (>;40 s-SWCNTs/μm) and low sheet resistance (<;10 KΩ/□).
