Definitions
- the present invention relates to nanotubes and, more particularly, to the use of nanotubes to cany currents and voltages at high frequencies.
- Nanotubes are commonly made from carbon and comprise graphite sheets seamlessly wrapped into cylinders. Nanotubes can be single-walled or multi-walled. Single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs) comprise single cylinders and represent nearly ideal one dimensional electronic structures. Multi- walled nanotubes (MWNTs) comprise multiple cylinders arranged concentrically. Typical dimensions are 1-3 nm for SWNTs and 20-100 nm for MWNTs.
- Nanotubes can be either metallic or semiconducting depending on their structure.
- Metallic nanotubes are non-gateable, meaning that their conductance does not change with applied gate voltages, while semiconducting nanotubes are gateable.
- the electrically properties of nanotubes make them promising candidates for the realization of nanoscale electronic devices smaller than can be achieved with current lithographic techniques.
- Nanotube transistors are predicted to be extremely fast, especially if the nanotubes can be used as the interconnects themselves in future integrated nanosystems.
- the extremely high mobilities found in semiconducting nanowires and nanotubes are important for high speed operations, one of the main predicted advantages of nanotube and nanowire devices in general.
- Nanotubes may also have a role to play as high frequency interconnects in the long term between active nanotube transistors or in the short term between conventional transistors because of their capacity for large current densities.
- the present invention provides nanotube interconnects capable of carrying current and voltage at high frequencies for use as high-speed interconnects in high frequency circuits.
- nanotube interconnects can be used as high-speed interconnects in high frequency circuits, e.g., RF and microwave circuits, and high frequency nanoscale circuits.
- the nanotube interconnects comprise metallic single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs), although other types of nanotubes may also be used, e.g., multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), ropes of all metallic nanotubes, and ropes comprising mixtures of semiconducting and metallic nanotubes.
- SWNTs metallic single-walled nanotubes
- MWNTs multi-walled carbon nanotubes
- ropes of all metallic nanotubes e.g., ropes of all metallic nanotubes, and ropes comprising mixtures of semiconducting and metallic nanotubes.
- Nanotube interconnects are advantageous over copper interconnects currently used in integrated circuits. Nanotube interconnects have much higher conductivity than copper interconnects, and do not suffer from surface scattering, which can further reduce the conductivity of copper interconnects as dimensions are decreased below 100 nm. The higher conductivity of nanotube interconnects in addition to their demonstrated high frequency current carrying capacity make them advantageous over copper interconnects for high-speed applications, including high frequency nanoscale circuits.
- Figure 1 is a graph showing current-voltage characteristics for a device A, a single-wall nanotube (SWNT) with a 1 ⁇ m electrode spacing.
- Figure 2 is a grapn showing " the conductance versus source-drain voltage for device A at frequencies of DC, 0.6 GHz, and 10 GHz.
- Figure 3 is a graph showing current-voltage characteristics for a device B, a SWNT with an a 25 ⁇ m electrode spacing.
- Figure 4 is a graph showing the conductance versus source-drain voltage for device B at frequencies of DC, 0.3 GHz, 1 GHz, and 10 GHz.
- the present invention provides nanotube interconnects capable of carrying current and voltage at high frequencies for use as high-speed interconnects in high frequency circuits.
- the current and voltage carrying capacity of nanotube interconnects at high frequencies is demonstrated by the measurements below.
- SWNTs 13 were synthesized via chemical vapor deposition 14 ' 15 on oxidized, high-resistivity p-doped Si wafers (p > 10 k ⁇ -cm) with a 400-500 nm SiO 2 layer.
- Metal electrodes were formed on the SWNTs using electron-beam lithography and metal evaporation of 20-nm Cr/100 nm Au bilayer. The devices were not annealed.
- Nanotubes with electrode spacing of 1 (device A) and 25 ⁇ m (device B) were studied. Typical resistances were ⁇ M ⁇ ; some nanotubes had resistances below 250 k ⁇ . In this study we focus on metallic SWNTs (defined by absence of a gate response) with resistance below 200 k ⁇ .
- a commercially available microwave probe (suitable for calibration with a commercially available open/short/load calibration standard) allowed for transition from coax to lithographically fabricated on chip electrodes.
- the electrode geometry consisted of two small contact pads, one 50x50 ⁇ m 2 , and the other 200x200 ⁇ m 2 (for device A) or 50x200 ⁇ m 2 (for device B).
- Fig. 2 plots the conductance G vs. the source-drain voltage for device A at dc, 0.6 GHz, and 10 GHz.
- G vs. the source-drain voltage for device A at dc, 0.6 GHz, and 10 GHz.
- Fig. 3 plots the I-V curve of a longer SWNT (device B), with an electrode gap of 25 ⁇ m. (The original length of this nanotube was over 200 ⁇ m.) This device is almost certainly not in the ballistic limit, even for low-bias conduction, since the mean-free-path is of order 1 ⁇ m 15 ' 17 ' 18 and the SWNT length is 25 ⁇ m. The low-bias resistance of this device is 150 k ⁇ . Previous measurements in our lab 15 on 4 mm long SWNTs gave a resistance per unit length of 6 lc ⁇ / ⁇ m, indicating that the SWNT bulk resistance is about 150 k ⁇ for device B, and that the contact resistance is small compared to the intrinsic nanotube resistance.
- Fig. 4 plots the conductance G vs. the source-drain voltage for device B at dc, 0.3 GHz, 1 GHz, and 10 GHz.
- device B Using similar arguments as for device A, our measurements for device B show that the ac and dc conductance are equal within 50% over the entire frequency range studied.
- the first resonance would occur at a frequency given by vp/(4Lg), where VF is the Fermi velocity, L the length, and g the Luttinger liquid "g-factor", a parameter which characterizes the strengm or me electron-electron interaction. Typically, g ⁇ 0.3.
- L 25 ⁇ m
- the first resonance in the frequency dependent impedance would occur at 24 GHz, beyond the range of frequencies studied here.
- our nanotube for device B was originally over 200 ⁇ m long. After deposition of electrodes, the nanotube extended under the two electrodes for a distance of at least 150 ⁇ m on one side, and 50 ⁇ m on the other.
- Equation (2) describes a distributed resistance of the nanotube that is independent of frequency, equal to the measured dc resistance per unit length of 6 k ⁇ / ⁇ m of similar long nanotubes grown in our lab 5 .
- Equation (1) is still valid up to 10 GHz.
- the electron-phonon scattering frequency in the high-bias region is approximately 1 THz 18 . Therefore, on the time-scale of the electric field period, the scattering frequency is instantaneous. Further theoretical work is needed to clarify this point.
- Measurements up to higher frequencies of order the electron-phonon scattering rate should allow more information to be learned about electron- phonon scattering in nanotubes; temperature dependent measurements would allow for more information as well, such as the intrinsic nanotube impedance at low scattering rates.
- the dynamical impedance of metallic SWNTs are dominantly real and frequency independent from dc to at least 10 GHz.
- the high current carrying capacity of metallic SWNTs does not degrade into the high frequency (microwave) regime allowing SWNTs to be used as high-speed interconnects in nign-speed applications.
- the nanotube interconnects comprise metallic SWNTs, although other types of nanotubes may also be used, e.g., MWNTs, ropes of all metallic nanotubes, and ropes comprising mixtures of semiconducting and metallic nanotubes.
- Metallic SWNTs can have a very high current density (of order 10 9 A/cm 2 ).
- a metallic SWNT of order 1-3 nm in diameter can carry currents and voltages of up to 25 ⁇ A or higher.
- nanotube interconnects can be used as high-speed interconnects in a variety of high frequency applications.
- nanotube interconnects can be used to provide high-speed interconnects in computer processors operating at high clock frequencies of 1 GHz or higher.
- Nanotubes interconnects can also be used to provide high-speed interconnects in radio frequency (RF) and microwave circuits operating at frequencies up to 10 GHz or higher such as in cellular phones and wireless network systems.
- the nanotube interconnects can be used to interconnect active devices (e.g., transistors), passive devices, or a combination of active and passive devices in circuits operating at high frequencies in the GHz range.
- the nanotube interconnects can also be used to interconnect nanoscale devices to realize high frequency all nanotube circuits.
- the nanotube interconnects can be used to interconnect nanotube field effect transistors (FETs), in which semiconducting nanotubes are used for the channels of the nanotube FETs.
- FETs nanotube field effect transistors
- the nanotube interconnects can also be used to interconnect lager-scale devices, e.g., conventional transistors, for high-speed applications or to interconnect a combination of nanoscale and larger-scale devices in a circuit.
- a nanotube interconnect can comprise a single nanotube or comprise more than one nanotube arranged in parallel in an N-array, where N is the number of nanotubes.
- the invention also provides a useful method for modeling nanotube interconnects in circuit simulation programs used for designing high frequency circuits.
- a circuit simulation program models the dynamical impedance of nanotube interconnects in high frequency circuits as being equal to their dc resistance.
- the circuit simulation program assumes that the dc resistance of the nanotube interconnect dominates at high frequencies and that the dynamical impedance is not sensitive to imaginary impedances (inductances and capacitances).
- the nanotube interconnects are advantageous over copper interconnects currently used in integrated circuits. When scaled by the diameter of 1.5 nm, the resistance per unit length of a nanotube we measure gives a resistivity conductivity of 1 ⁇ -cm, which is lower than that of bulk copper.
- copper interconnects typically suffer increased surface scattering as the dimensions are decreased below 100 nm, so that even the bulk conductivity of copper is not realized afth'a'f length' scaler In" a ⁇ rrion, the current density of carbon nanotubes exceeds that of copper.
- carbon nanotubes are superior materials to copper as interconnects in integrated circuits.
- the nanotube forms a quantum transmission line, with distributed kinetic inductance and both quantum and geometric capacitance.
- the kinetic inductance for an individual nanotube is about 4 nH/ ⁇ m. Numerically this gives rise to an inductive impedance of icoL, where L is the inductance. However, the resistance per unit length is about 6 k ⁇ / ⁇ m. This means that the resistive impedance will dominate the inductive impedance at frequencies below about 200 GHz for a single walled nanotube. Therefore, when considering the applications of nanotubes as interconnects at microwave frequencies, the resistance should be the dominant consideration.
- the conductivity of nanotubes is larger than copper.
- Arraying nanotubes allows for wiring with less resistance per unit length than copper of the same total cross sectional area.
- the kinetic inductance of an N-array of nanotubes is N times lower than the kinetic inductance of an individual nanotube.
