Semiconducting CNTs possess several advantages over traditional silicon, including higher carrier mobility and better electrostatic control at nanoscale dimensions. These properties make them ...

Silicon has powered the information age, but it’s reaching its physical limits. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) hold a lot of promise as a replacement if we can get around some key obstacles—and the designers ...

“We always hoped that something like this could be built – now we know that it can be built,” says Max Shulaker, professor at MIT and corresponding author on this latest report. Carbon nanotubes have ...
