Abstract :
Carbon-based electronics is still in its infancy, and its progress is presently still largely dominated by the natural science community. This paper provides an overview on Carbon-based electronics from an electrical engineering and RF analog applications point of view. Important material properties, resulting device structures, their fabrication and the most relevant modeling concepts are briefly reviewed. Furthermore, most recent results on device and circuit performance are presented in the context of practical requirements and applications.
