| Abstract | The characterizations of carbon nanotube transistors at high frequencies have so far been hindered by large parasitic and extrinsic capacitances. We present a quantitative analysis of the limitations imposed by probe pad parasitics on single-wall carbon nanotube transistor characterization at gigahertz frequencies. Our analysis reveals the various kinds of frequency responses that can be expected to be measured. Furthermore, we present design guidelines and a suitable device layout to achieve gain and bandwidth at gigahertz frequencies. |
