Active properties of carbon nanotube field-effect transistors deduced from S parameters measurements
Résumé
AC performances of carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNT-FETs) are analyzed by means of scattering parameters measurements. The active ac properties of CNT-FETs are clearly demonstrated up to 80 MHz and indications of active behavior are obtained up to 1 GHz. From these measurements, a small signal equivalent circuit is proposed and validated up to 10 MHz. The extraction procedure and the determination of the intrinsic ac elements of CNT-FETs are pointed out.
