February 26th, 2008

Carbon nanotubes printed on plastic substrate speed mobility x100

Abstract:
NEC has printed carbon nanotube transistors on a plastic substrate, and claimed superior performance to other printed devices.

"The channel materials of conventional research organic transistors generally demonstrate little mobility and are therefore considered unsuitable for electronic devices with high-speed operation," said NEC. "The carbon nanotube (CNT) channel material allows 100 times greater mobility than regular organic transistors."
