Abstract :
Semiconducting carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have recently attracted much interest in the electronics community due to their potential applications in fast electronic devices, sensors, and high-mobility transistors. Here, the author presents a polynomial approximation for the electron concentration in semiconducting single-walled CNTs, appropriate for device simulations. The approximation is based on Gauss-Laguerre quadratures.
