«Single -
walled carbon nanotube field - effect
transistors (FETs) have characteristics similar to polycrystalline silicon FETs, a thin film silicon
transistor currently used to drive the pixels in organic light - emitting (OLED) displays,» said Mark Hersam, Dodabalapur's coworker and a professor in the McCormick School
of Engineering and Applied Science at Northwestern University.
To confirm their hypothesis, Dodabalapur and his coworkers performed experiments comparing the effects
of polar and non-polar vapors on single -
walled carbon nanotube field - effect
transistors.
In the paper, researchers examined the effect
of a fluoropolymer coating called PVDF - TrFE on single -
walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT)
transistors and ring oscillator circuits, and demonstrated that these coatings can substantially improve the performance
of single -
walled carbon nanotube devices.
To overcome the drawbacks
of single -
walled carbon nanotube field - effect
transistors and improve their performance, the researchers deposited PVDF - TrFE on the top
of self - fabricated single -
walled carbon nanotube
transistors by inkjet printing, a low - cost, solution based deposition process with good spatial resolution.
