Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention provides device components geometries and fabrication strategies for enhancing the electronic performance of electronic devices based on thin films of randomly oriented or partially aligned semiconducting nanotubes. In certain aspects, devices and methods of the present invention incorporate a patterned layer of randomly oriented or partially aligned carbon nanotubes, such as one or more interconnected SWNT networks, providing a semiconductor channel exhibiting improved electronic properties relative to conventional nanotubes-based electronic systems.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
We claim: 1. An electronic device comprising: a first electrode; a second electrode; and a patterned layer comprising randomly oriented or partially aligned carbon nanotubes provided in one or more interconnected carbon nanotube networks positioned between and in electrical contact with said first electrode and said second electrode, wherein said partially aligned carbon nanotubes are aligned relative to each other with deviations from absolute parallelism that are greater tha…
