Discovery of one-dimensional material carbon nanotubes in 1991 by
the Japanese physicist Dr. Sumio Iijima has resulted in voluminous
research in the field of carbon nanotubes for numerous
applications, including possible replacement of silicon used in the
fabrication of CMOS chips. One interesting feature of carbon
nanotubes is that these can be metallic or semiconducting with a
bandgap depending on their diameter. In search of non-classical
devices and related technologies, both carbon nanotube-based
field-effect transistors and metallic carbon nanotube interconnects
are being explored extensively for emerging logic devices and very
large-scale integration. Although various models for carbon
nanotube-based transistors and interconnects have been proposed in
the literature, an integrated approach to make them compatible with
the present simulators is yet to be achieved. This book makes an
attempt in this direction for the carbon-based electronics through
fundamentals of solid-state physics and devices.
