  • Abstract
    An analysis and a preliminary evaluation of the performance of an integrated vacuum triode amplifier with a single field emission CNT in the THz frequency range is proposed. The most relevant merit factors, such as leakage current, transparency and cut-off frequency are considered to demonstrate the ability of the device to perform in the THz frequency range
