Successful Development of a Carbon Nanotube Transistor with Over-1000 Times Operational Stability

The Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research, Osaka University, the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), and Japan Science and Technology Agency have jointly succeeded in the development of a production process for a new carbon nanotube transistor (CNT transistor), and thereby succeeded in the development of a CNT transistor with an operational stability 1000 or more times that of conventional CNT transistors.

Key Points

* Reduced the time-variation of electric current down to less than 1/1000.
* Achieved the complete removal of a hysteresis in the current-voltage characteristics.
* Enabled the development of ultra-high sensitivity biosensors utilizing the advantages of a carbon nanotube transistor.
