DC and radio-frequency transmission characteristics of double-walled carbon nanotubes-based ink

Résumé

In this paper, double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWNTs) network layers were patterned using inkjet transfer printing. The remarkable conductive characteristics of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are considered as promising candidates for transmission line as well as microelectronic interconnects of an arbitrary pattern. In this work, the DWNTs were prepared by the catalytic chemical vapor deposition process, oxidized and dispersed in ethylene glycol solution. The DWNTs networks were deposited between electrodes contact and then characterized at DC through current-voltage measurements, low frequency, and high frequency by scattering parameters measurements from 40 MHz up to 40 GHz through a vector network analyzer. By varying the number of inkjet overwrites, the results confirm that the DC resistance of DWNTs networks can be varied according to their number and that furthermore the networks preserve ohmic characteristics up to 100 MHz. The microwave transmission parameters were obtained from the measured S-parameter data. An algorithm is developed to calculate the propagation constant "γ", attenuation constant "α" in order to show the frequency dependence of the equivalent resistance of DWNTs networks, which decreases with increasing frequency.
