Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistor (CNFET) technology has received a lot of attention in the past few years as a promising extension to silicon-CMOS for future digital logic integrated circuits. While recent research has advanced CNFET technology past many important milestones, robust and scalable solutions must be developed to realize the full potential of CNFETs. Thus, this thesis aims to develop a suite of techniques, spanning from material synthesis to circuit solutions, compatible with very-large-scale integration (VLSI). Specifically, to enable the real-world engineering of carbon nanotube integrated circuits, this thesis presents (1) wafer-scale aligned CNT growth, (2) wafer-scale CNT Transfer, (3) wafer-scale device and circuit fabrication techniques, and (4) ACCNT, a VLSI-compatible circuit design solution to surmounting the problem of metallic CNTs. These techniques culminated in the successful demonstration of CNT transistors, inverters, and NAND logic gates on a wafer scale. Furthermore, this thesis sheds light on important design considerations for the demonstration of a simple CNT "computer" and suggests a few critical directions for future work in the field of carbon nanotube technology. In contributing the above, this thesis hopes to propel carbon nanotube technology forward towards the vision of robust, large-scale integrated circuits using high-density carbon nanotubes.

This book provides a single-source reference on the use of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as interconnect material for horizontal, on-chip and 3D interconnects. The authors demonstrate the uses of bundles of CNTs, as innovative conducting material to fabricate interconnect through-silicon vias (TSVs), in order to improve the performance, reliability and integration of 3D integrated circuits (ICs). This book will be first to provide a coherent overview of exploiting carbon nanotubes for 3D interconnects covering aspects from processing, modeling, simulation, characterization and applications. Coverage also includes a thorough presentation of the application of CNTs as horizontal on-chip interconnects which can potentially revolutionize the nanoelectronics industry. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the state-of-the-art on exploiting carbon nanotubes for interconnects for both 2D and 3D integrated circuits.

This book presents a comprehensive review of research on applications of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene to electronic devices. As nanocarbons in general, and CNTs and graphene in particular, are becoming increasingly recognized as the most promising materials for future generations of electronic devices, including transistors, sensors, and interconnects, a knowledge gap still exists between the basic science of nanocarbons and their feasibility for cost-effective product manufacturing. The book highlights some of the issues surrounding this missing link by providing a detailed review of the nanostructure and electronic properties, materials, and device fabrication and of the structure–property–application relationships.

This book gives a survey of the physics and fabrication of carbon nanotubes and their applications in optics, electronics, chemistry and biotechnology. It focuses on the structural characterization of various carbon nanotubes, fabrication of vertically or parallel aligned carbon nanotubes on substrates or in composites, physical properties for their alignment, and applications of aligned carbon nanotubes in field emission, optical antennas, light transmission, solar cells, chemical devices, bio-devices, and many others. Major fabrication methods are illustrated in detail, particularly the most widely used PECVD growth technique on which various device integration schemes are based, followed by applications such as electrical interconnects, nanodiodes, optical antennas, and nanocoax solar cells, whereas current limitations and challenges are also be discussed to lay the foundation for future developments.
