原创整理，纳米前沿刊物Nano Lett 引用次数最多的20篇文章 1.Carbon Nanotube Inter- and Intramolecular Logic Gates link V. Derycke, R. Martel, J. Appenzeller, and Ph. Avouris Nano Lett.; 2001; 1(9) pp 453 - 456; (Letter); DOI: 10.1021/nl015606f Abstract：Single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have been used as the active channels of field effect transistors (FET). The next development step involves the integration of CNTFETs to form logic gates; the basic units of computers. For this we need to have both p- and n-type CNTFETs. However, without special treatment, the obtained CNTFETs are always p-type: the current carriers are holes and the devices are ON for negative gate bias. Here we show that n-type CNTFETs can be prepared not only by doping but also by a simple annealing of SWNT-based p-FETs in a vacuum. We use our ability to prepare both p- and n-type nanotube transistors to build the first nanotube-based logic gates: voltage inverters. Using spatially resolved doping we implemented this logic function on a single nanotube bundle.  2.Highly Luminescent Monodisperse CdSe and CdSe/ZnS Nanocrystals Synthesized in a Hexadecylamine-Trioctylphosphine Oxide-Trioctylphospine Mixture Link Dmitri V. Talapin, Andrey L. Rogach, Andreas Kornowski, Markus Haase, and Horst Weller Nano Lett.; 2001; 1(4) pp 207 - 211; (Letter); DOI: 10.1021/nl0155126 Abstract:Highly monodisperse CdSe nanocrystals were prepared in a three-component hexadecylamine-trioctylphosphine oxide-trioctylphosphine (HDA-TOPO-TOP) mixture. This modification of the conventional organometallic synthesis of CdSe nanocrystals in TOPO-TOP provides much better control over growth dynamics, resulting in the absence of defocusing of the particle size distribution during growth. The room-temperature quantum efficiency of the band edge luminescence of CdSe nanocrystals can be improved to 40-60% by surface passivation with inorganic (ZnS) or organic (alkylamines) shells. 3. [Block-by-Block Growth of Single-Crystalline Si/SiGe Superlattice Nanowires Yiying Wu, Rong Fan, and Peidong Yang Link：Link Nano Lett.; 2002; 2(2) pp 83 - 86; (Letter); DOI: 10.1021/nl0156888 Abstract:Heterojunction and superlattice formation is essential for many potential applications of semiconductor nanowires in nanoscale optoelectronics. We have developed a hybrid pulsed laser ablation/chemical capor deposition (PLA-CVD) process for the synthesis of semiconductor nanowires with longitudinal ordered heterostructures. The laser ablation process generates a programmable pulsed vapor source, which enables the nanowire growth in a block-by-block fashion with a well-defined compositional profile along the wire axis. Single-crystalline nanowires with longitudinal Si/SiGe superlattice structure have been successfully synthesized. This unique class of heterostructured one-dimensional nanostructures holds great potential in applications such as light emitting devices and thermoelectrics.  4. Crystalline Silver Nanowires by Soft Solution Processing Link Yugang Sun, Byron Gates, Brian Mayers, and Younan Xia Nano Lett.; 2002; 2(2) pp 165 - 168; (Letter); DOI: 10.1021/nl010093y Abstract This paper describes a soft, solution-phase approach to the large-scale synthesis of uniform nanowires of bicrystalline silver whose lateral dimensions could be controlled in the range of 30-40 nm, and lengths up to ~50 m. The first step of this procedure involved the formation of platinum nanoparticles by reducing PtCl2 with ethylene glycol heated to ~160 C. Due to their close match in crystal structure and lattice constants, these platinum nanoparticles could serve as seeds for the heterogeneous nucleation and growth of silver that was produced in the solution via the reduction of AgNO3 with ethylene glycol. When surfactants such as poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) were present in this solution, the silver could be directed to grow into uniform nanowires with aspect ratios as high as ~1000. Measurements of transport property at room temperature indicated that these nanowires were electrically continuous with a conductivity of approximately 0.8 × 105 S/cm  5.Hierarchical ZnO Nanostructures Link Jing Yu Lao, Jian Guo Wen, and Zhi Feng Ren Nano Lett.; 2002; 2(11) pp 1287 - 1291; (Letter); DOI: 10.1021/nl025753t Access: Abstract  6.Functionalization of Carbon Nanotubes for Biocompatibility and Biomolecular Recognition http://pubs.acs.org/cgi-bin/abst ... /abs/nl015692j.html Moonsub Shim, Nadine Wong Shi Kam, Robert J.

Record 1 of 50 Author(s): Wang, XD; Summers, CJ; Wang, ZL Title: Large-scale hexagonal-patterned growth of aligned ZnO nanorods for nano-optoelectronics and nanosensor arrays Source: NANO LETTERS, 4 (3): 423-426 MAR 2004 Keywords Plus: CARBON NANOTUBES; PERIODIC ARRAYS; NANOBELTS; NANOWIRES; SAPPHIRE; LASERS Abstract: An effective approach is demonstrated for growing large-area, hexagonally patterned, aligned ZnO nanorods. The synthesis uses a catalyst template produced by a self-assembled monolayer of submicron spheres and guided vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth on a single crystal alumina substrate. The ZnO nanorods have uniform shape and length, align vertically on the substrate, and are distributed according to the pattern defined by the catalyst template. The nanorods grow along [0001] with side surfaces defined by {2110}. This approach opens the possibility of creating patterned one-dimensional nanostructures for applications as sensor arrays, piezoelectric antenna arrays, optoelectronic devices, and interconnects.

Glucose oxidase was covalently immobilized on CNT NEEs via carbodiimide chemistry by forming amide linkages between their amine residues and carboxylic acid groups on the CNT tips. The catalytic reduction of hydrogen peroxide liberated from the enzymatic reaction of glucose oxidase upon the glucose and oxygen on CNT NEEs leads to the selective detection of glucose. The biosensor effectively performs a selective electrochemical analysis of glucose in the presence of common interferents (e.g., acetaminophen, uric and ascorbic acids), avoiding the generation of an overlapping signal from such interferers. Such an operation eliminates the need for permselective membrane barriers or artificial electron mediators, thus greatly simplifying the sensor design and fabrication.

For each molecule, conductance histogram shows peaks at integer multiples of a fundamental conductance value, which is used to identify the conductance of a single molecule. The conductance values of a benzenedithiol and benzenedimethanethiol are 0.011 G(0) and 0.0006 G(0) (G(0) = 2e(2)/h), respectively. The conductance peaks are broad, which reflects variations in the microscopic details of different molecular junctions. We have also studied electrochemical gate effect.

Questions about their potential cytotoxicity, however, remain unanswered. While cytotoxicity of bulk cadmium selenide (CdSe) is well documented, a number of groups have suggested that CdSe QDs are cytocompatible, at least with some immortalized cell lines. Using primary hepatocytes as a liver model, we found that CdSe-core QDs were indeed acutely toxic under certain conditions. Specifically, we found that the cytotoxicity of QDs was modulated by processing parameters during synthesis, exposure to ultraviolet light, and surface coatings. Our data further suggest that cytotoxicity correlates with the liberation of free Cd2+ ions due to deterioration of the CdSe lattice. When appropriately coated, CdSe-core QDs can be rendered nontoxic and used to track cell migration and reorganization in vitro. Our results provide information for design criteria for the use of QDs in vitro and especially in vivo, where deterioration over time may occur.

In these long transistors, carrier transport is diffusive and the channel resistance dominates the transport. Transport characteristics are used to extract the field-effect mobility (79 000 cm(2)/Vs) and estimate the intrinsic mobility (>100 000 cm(2)/Vs) at room temperature. These values exceed those for all known semiconductors, which bodes well for application of nanotubes in high-speed transistors, single- and few-electron memories, and chemical/biochemical sensors.

Here we report two-terminal silicon nanowire electronic devices that function as ultrasensitive and selective detectors of DNA. The surfaces of the silicon nanowire devices were modified with peptide nucleic acid receptors designed to recognize wild type versus the DeltaF508 mutation site in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane receptor gene. Conductance measurements made while sequentially introducing wild type or mutant DNA samples exhibit a time-dependent conductance increase consistent with the PNA-DNA hybridization and enabled identification of fully complementary versus mismatched DNA samples. Concentration-dependent measurements show that detection can be carried out to at least the tens of femtomolar range. This nanowire-based approach represents a step forward for direct, label-free DNA detection with extreme sensitivity and good selectivity, and could provide a pathway to integrated, high-throughput, multiplexed DNA detection for genetic screening and biothreat detection.

By controlling growth kinetics, we show the success of growing nanobelt-based novel structures whose surfaces are dominated by the polarized +/- (0001) facets. Owing to the positive and negative ionic charges on the zinc- and oxygen-terminated +/- (0001) surfaces, respectively, a spontaneous polarization is induced across the nanobelt thickness. As a result, right-handed helical nanostructures and nanorings are formed by rolling up single-crystal nanobelts; this phenomenon is attributed to a consequence of minimizing the total energy contributed by spontaneous polarization and elasticity. The polar-surface-dominated ZnO nanobelts are likely to be an ideal system for understanding piezoelectricity and polarization-induced ferroelectricity at nanoscale; and they could have applications as one-dimensional nanoscale sensors, transducers, and resonators.

The surfactants are compared with respect to their ability to suspend individual SWNTs and the quality of the absorption and fluorescence spectra. For the ionic surfactants, sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS) gives the most well resolved spectral features. For the nonionic systems, surfactants with higher molecular weight suspend more SWNT material and have more pronounced spectral features.

These are used to obtain the first model-independent prediction of first and second van Hove optical transitions as a function of structure for a wide range of semiconducting nanotubes. To allow for convenient use in support of spectral studies, the results are presented in equation, graphical, and tabular forms. These empirical findings differ significantly from Kataura plots computed using a simple tight-binding model. It is suggested that the empirically based results should be used in preference to conventional model-based predictions in spectroscopic nanotube research.

A general and efficient solution-based method for controlling organization and hierarchy of nanowire structures over large areas has been developed. Nanowires were aligned with controlled nanometer to micrometer scale pitch using the Langmuir-Blodgett technique and transferred to planar substrates in a layer-by-layer process to form parallel and crossed nanowire structures. The parallel and crossed nanowire structures were efficiently patterned into repeating arrays of controlled dimensions and pitch using photolithography to yield hierarchical structures with order defined from the nanometer through centimeter length scales. In addition, electrical transport studies show that reliable electrical contacts can be made to the hierarchical nanowire arrays prepared by this method. This solution-based process offers a flexible pathway for bottom-up assembly of virtually any nanowire material into highly integrated and hierarchically organized nanodevices needed for a broad range of functional nanosystems.

Nano Leff. 2002, 2,165. Sun, Y.; Xia, Y. Adv. Mater. 2002, 14,833. Sun, Y.; Yin, Y.; Mayers, B. T.; Herricks, T.; Xia, Y. Chem. Mater. 2002, 149 4736). Although the capability and feasibility of this method have been successfully illustrated with the production of silver nanowires 30-60 nm in diameter and 1-50 mum in length, the growth mechanism of this process is yet to be elucidated. Here we report some progress on this matter: First, electron microscopy studies on microtomed samples indicated that the cross sections of such silver nanowires had a pentagonal shape, together with a 5-fold twinned crystal structure. Second, the side surfaces (bounded by {100} facets) and the ends (bounded by {111} facets) of each nanowire were shown to have significant difference in reactivity toward dithoil molecules, with the side surfaces being completely passivated by poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) and the ends being partially passivated (or essentially uncovered) by PVP. This result implied that the PVP macromolecules interacted more strongly with the {100} planes than with the {111} planes of silver. On the basis of these new results, we proposed that each silver nanowire evolved from a multiply twinned nanoparticle (MTP) of silver with the assistance of PVP at the initial stage of the Ostwald ripening process. The anisotropic growth was maintained by selectively covering the {100} facets with PVP while leaving the {111} facets largely uncovered by PVP and thus highly reactive.

Controlled attachment of the redox enzyme glucose oxidase (GOx) to the nanotube sidewall is achieved through a linking molecule and is found to induce a clear change of the conductance. The enzyme-coated tube is found to act as a pH sensor with large and reversible changes in conductance upon changes in pH. Upon addition of glucose, the substrate of GOx, a steplike response can be monitored in real time, indicating that our sensor is also capable of measuring enzymatic activity at the level of a single nanotube. This first demonstration of nanotube-based biosensors provides a new tool for enzymatic studies and opens the way to biomolecular diagnostics.

The spherical colloids of silver were, in turn, generated by reducing silver nitrate with sodium borohydride in the presence of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) and sodium citrate. Our studies indicate that the light present in an ordinary chemical laboratory was sufficiently strong to transform some spherical nanoparticles into small triangular nanoplates. Refluxing provided the driving force to facilitate the Ostwald ripening process-growth of these plate-like seeds at the expense of spherical nanoparticles. In addition, refluxing might also selectively disrupt the organic layers on the surfaces of the small triangular nanoplates, driving these plates to assemble into thin nanobelts due to the strong dipole-dipole interaction between adjacent plates. These nanostructures of silver with unique planar shapes might find use in areas that include photonics, optoelectronics, and optical sensing.

When an ethanol solution containing both poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP, M-w approximate to 1300 000) and titanium tetraisopropoxide was injected through a needle under a strong electrical field, composite nanofibers made of PVP and amorphous TiO2 were formed (with lengths up to several centimeters) as a result of electrostatic jetting. These nanofibers could be subsequently converted into anatase without changing their morphology via calcination in air at 500 degreesC. The average diameter of these ceramic nanofibers could be controlled in the range from 20 to 200 nm by varying a number of parameters such as the ratio between PVP and titanium tetraisopropoxide, their concentrations in the alcohol solution, the strength of the electric field, and the feeding rate of the precursor solution. Both supported and free-standing mats consisting of anatase nanofibers have been successfully fabricated.

To explore the potential limits of silicon nanowire transistors, we have examined the influence of source-drain contact thermal annealing and surface passivation on key transistor properties. Thermal annealing and passivation of oxide defects using chemical modification were found to increase the average transconductance from 45 to 800 nS and average mobility from 30 to 560 cm(2)/V(.)s with peak values of 2000 nS and 1350 cm(2)/V(.)s, respectively. The comparison of these results and other key parameters with state-of-the-art planar silicon devices shows substantial advantages for silicon nanowires.

It is shown here that the transistors exhibit hysteresis in their electrical characteristics because of charge trapping by water molecules around the nanotubes, including SiO2 surface-bound water proximal to the nanotubes. Hysteresis persists for the transistors in vacuum since the SiO2-bound water does not completely desorb in vacuum at room temperature, a known phenomenon in SiO2 surface chemistry. Heating under dry conditions significantly removes water and reduces hysteresis in the transistors. Nearly hysteresis-free transistors are obtainable by passivating the devices with polymers that hydrogen bond with silanol groups on SiO2 (e.g., with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)). However, nanotube humidity sensors could be explored with suitable water-sensitive coatings. The results may have implications to field-effect transistors made from other chemically derived materials.

The diameter distribution of nanotubes in the dispersion, measured by atomic force microscopy, showed that even at 20 mg/mL similar to63 +/- 5% of single-wall carbon nanotube bundles exfoliated into single tubes. A measure of the length distribution of the nanotubes showed that our dispersion technique reduced nanotube fragmentation.

It was found that the major core nanowires are single-crystal In2O3 with 6, 4, and 2 facets, and the secondary nanorods are single-crystal hexagonal ZnO and grow either perpendicular on or slanted to all the facets of the core In2O3 nanowires. The core In2O3 nanowires have diameters of about 50-500 nm, whereas the secondary ZnO nanorods have diameters of about 20-200 nm. Depending on the diameter of the core In2O3 nanowires, the secondary ZnO nanorods grow either as a single row or multiple rows. These hierarchical heteronanostructures may find applications in a variety of fields such as field emission, photovoltaics, transparent EMI shielding, supercapacitors, fuel cells, high strength and multifunctional nanocomposites, etc. that require not only high surface area but also structural integrity.

Although during the synthesis, a mixture of nanoprisms and nanospherolds is formed, the latter can be removed through careful centrifugation. The UV-visible spectra of the nanoprisms display an intense in-plane dipolar plasmon resonance band, as well as weak bands for in-plane and out-of-plane quadrupolar resonances. The nanoprisms are also stable in other solvents, such as ethanol and water, and solvent exchange leads to strong shifts of the in-plane dipole plasmon band.

Charges are stored by application of a few volts across the silicon dioxide dielectric between nanotube and silicon substrate, and detected by threshold shift of the nanotube field-effect transistor. The high mobility of the nanotube transistor allows the observation of discrete configurations of charge corresponding to rearrangement of a single or few electrons. These states may be reversibly written, read, and erased at temperatures up to 100 K.

Typical examples include Au3+, Pt2+, and Pd2+ salts and nanoparticles or nanowires of silver. The morphology, void space, and wall thickness of these hollow structures are all determined by the solid templates, which are completely converted into soluble species during the replacement reaction. Both electron microscopy and diffraction studies indicate that single crystalline hollow structures of metals can also be obtained when the templates are single crystals. These metallic hollow structures, having well-controlled sizes and shapes, are expected to find use in a number of applications that involve nanoscale encapsulation, drug delivery, plasmon photonics, and calorimetric sensing.

Here, the streptavidin/biotin system is used to investigate the adsorption behavior of proteins on the sides of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). Functionalization of SWNTs by coadsorption of a surfactant and poly(ethylene glycol) is found to be effective in resisting nonspecific adsorption of streptavidin. Specific binding of streptavidin onto SWNTs is achieved by co-functionalization of nanotubes with biotin and protein-resistant polymers.

The nanotube-BSA conjugates thus obtained are highly water-soluble, forming dark-colored aqueous solutions. Results from characterizations using atomic force microscopy (AFM), thermal gravimetric analysis, Raman, and gel electrophoresis show that the conjugate samples indeed contain both carbon nanotubes and BSA proteins and that the protein species are intimately associated with the nanotubes. Bioactivities of the nanotube-bound proteins are evaluated using the total protein micro-determination assay (the modified Lowry procedure). The results show that the overwhelming majority (similar to90%) of the protein species in the nanotube-BSA conjugates remain bioactive.

The lengths of these nanocables could be up to similar to50 mum. Such nanocables were prepared by directly coating bicrystalline silver nanowires with conformal sheaths of silica through a sol-gel process, The silver nanowires were, in turn, synthesized using a polyol method that involved the reduction of silver nitrate with ethylene glycol in the presence of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone). The thickness of silica coating could be controlled by changing the concentration of the precursor solution and/or the reaction time. Selective removal of the silver cores led to the formation of silica nanotubes having well-controlled dimensions and wall structures.

Based on electronic absorption spectroscopy, charge transfer is thought to proceed from the nanocrystal to the nanotube in the CdSe-nanotube system, whereas in the TiO2-nanotube system, charge transfer is expected to occur from the nanotube to the nanocrystal.

Electron mobilities determined for the GaN NW FETs, which were estimated from the transconductance, were as high as 650 cm(2)/V.s. These mobilities are comparable to or larger than thin film materials with similar carrier concentration and thus demonstrate the high quality of these NW building blocks and their potential for nanoscale electronics. In addition, p-n junctions have been assembled in high yield from p-type Si, and these n-type GaN NWs and their potential applications are discussed.

The first step of this procedure involved the formation of platinum nanoparticles by reducing PtCl2 With ethylene glycol heated to similar to160 degreesC. Due to their close match in crystal structure and lattice constants, these platinum nanoparticles could serve as seeds for the heterogeneous nucleation and growth of silver that was produced in the solution via the reduction of AgNO3 with ethylene glycol. When surfactants such as poly(vinyl pyrrolldone) (PVP) were present in this solution, the silver could be directed to grow into uniform nanowires with aspect ratios as high as similar to1000. Measurements of transport property at room temperature indicated that these nanowires were electrically continuous with a conductivity of approximately 0.8 X 10(5) S/CM.

We present luminescence, magnetic circular dichroism (MCD), and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements to confirm that the Mn impurities are embedded inside the nanocrystal. Optical measurements show that by exciting the nanocrystal, efficient emission from Mn is obtained, with a quantum yield of 22% at 295 K and 75% below 50 K (relative to Stilbene 420). MCD spectra reveal an experimental Zeeman splitting in the first excited state that is large (28 meV at 2.5 T), depends on doping concentration, and saturates at modest fields. In the low field limit, the magnitude of the effective g factor is 430 times larger than in undoped nanocrystals. EPR experiments exhibit a six-line spectrum with a hyperfine splitting of 60.4 x 10(-4) cm(-1), consistent with Mn substituted at Zn sites in the cubic ZnSe lattice.

Two novel concepts are demonstrated in this report. The first concept involves the incorporation of Pd-0 nanoparticles into PPI dendrimers covalently functionalized with perfluorinated polyether chains on their periphery. The second concept involves the first example of a carbon-carbon coupling reaction catalyzed by a dendrimer-templated nanomaterial, specifically, the catalytic heterocoupling between nonactivated aryl halides and n-butylacrylate mediated by the dendrimer-encapsulated catalysts. These reactions were carried out in a homogeneous fluorous/organic reaction phase at elevated temperature, and the catalyst was recovered by cooling to room temperature and concomitant phase separation. The catalyst was found to be catalytically active at a reaction temperature of only 90degreesC in the absence of toxic phosphines, and it was 100% selective for the production of n-butyl-trans-formylcinnamate with unoptimized isolated yields up to 70%. The recovered catalysts retained a significant fraction of the original activity, comparable to coordination complex catalysts that use a similar catalyst recovery system.

To fully realize this potential, it is important to precisely control the number of oligonucleotides bound to the nanocrystal. Here we demonstrate electrophoretic isolation of 5 and 10 nm gold nanocrystals bearing discrete numbers of single-stranded DNA (1-5). The potential use of these discrete conjugates in the fabrication of novel nanostructures is discussed.

The formation of nanorods is promoted by a high amine content In the reaction medium. In contrast to what is observed for TOPO-protected nickel particles, the saturation magnetization of HDA-capped nanoparticles is comparable to that of bulk nickel, which demonstrates that the coordination of an amine ligand does not alter the magnetic properties of nickel.

These capsules are nonpermeable for urease in water and become permeable in a water/ethanol mixture. The capsules were loaded with urease in water/ethanol mixture and then resuspended in water. The urease molecules are kept in the capsule, whereas the small urea molecules rapidly diffuse through the capsule wall providing a substrate for the biocatalytic reaction.

Functionalized gold nanoparticles are aggregated in solution in the presence of divalent metal ions by an ion-templated chelation process; this causes an easily measurable change in the absorption spectrum of the particles. The aggregation also enhances the hyper-Rayleigh scattering (HRS) response from the nanoparticle solutions, providing an inherently more sensitive method of detection. The chelation/aggregation process is reversible via addition of a strong metal ion chelator such as EDTA. Suggestions for improving the sensitivity and selectivity of the technique are given.

This modification of the conventional organometallic synthesis of Use nanocrystals in TOPO-TOP provides much better control over growth dynamics, resulting in the absence of defocusing of the particle size distribution during growth. The room-temperature quantum efficiency of the band edge luminescence of CdSe nanocrystals can be improved to 40-60% by surface passivation with inorganic (ZnS) or organic (alkylamines) shells.

Diads (1:1) with some amount of 2:1 albumin-nanoparticle assemblies preferably form in this reaction, as evidenced by gel electrophoresis. Circular dichroism spectroscopy demonstrates that the tertiary structure of the protein remains largely intact after the conjugation. Attachment of protein moieties result in a significant increase of CdTe emission, which is attributed to the resonance energy transfer from the tryptophan moieties of albumin to CdTe nanoparticles acting as receptors for the protein antennae.

The size, shape, and crystal structure of CdSe nanocrystals synthesized by these alternative routes can be varied in a controllable manner in a very broad size range, from about 1.5 nm to above 25 nm. Without any size sorting, the size distribution of the wurtzite nanocrystals in the size range smaller than about 15 nm can be readily controlled as narrow as with 5-10% relative standard deviation. The highest photoluminescence quantum efficiency of the nanocrystals was up to 20-30%. Cd(Ac)(2) and fatty acids were found to be the most versatile cadmium precursor and solvent/ligand, respectively. The synthesis of high quality CdSe nanocrystals in the current systems is not feasible when the system contains any anions from a strong acid, either in the form of a cadmium precursor or as an added cadmium ligand. The experimental results indicate that the synthesis of high quality colloidal nanocrystals is far less delicate than it has been thought to be.

The next development step involves the integration of CNTFETs to form logic gates; the basic units of computers. For this we need to have both p- and n-type CNTFETs. However, without special treatment, the obtained CNTFETs are always p-type: the current carriers are holes and the devices are ON for negative gate bias. Here we show that n-type CNTFETs can be prepared not only by doping but also by a simple annealing of SWNT-based p-FETs in a vacuum. We use our ability to prepare both p- and n-type nanotube transistors to build the first nanotube-based logic gates: voltage inverters. Using spatially resolved doping we implemented this logic function on a single nanotube bundle.
