High-performance partially aligned semiconductive single-walled carbon nanotube transistors achieved with a parallel technique by Wang, Yilei, Pillai, Suresh Kumar Raman, Chan-Park, Mary B.

“…By adjusting the nanotube concentration in the solution, the nanotube density of the partially aligned network can be controlled; linear densities ranging from 5 to 45 SWNTs/μm are observed. Through control of the linear SWNT density and channel length, the optimum SWNT-based field-effect transistor devices achieve outstanding performance metrics (with an on/off ratio of ~3.2 × 104 and mobility 46.5 cm2/Vs). …”
