Background technique
Single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNTs) has unique one-dimensional nano structure, it is considered to be nm regime is most potential
Material.Especially semi-conductor type single-walled carbon nano tube (s-SWCNTs), intrinsic carrier mobility are up to 70000cm2V-1s-
1, and without adulterating the bipolar transmission that hole and electronics can be realized, therefore application in integrated circuits is sent to great expectations,
It is considered as the semiconductor material in rear mole of epoch.
