Abstract
A carbon nanotube array with equal or other ratio of semiconductive to conductive elements in integrated form including: a plurality of carbon nanotubes arranged in an array, wherein each carbon nanotube includes a semiconducting carbon nanotube segment and a metallic carbon nanotube segment, and the semiconducting carbon nanotube segment and the metallic carbon nanotube segment are connected with each other.
Claims16
A carbon nanotube array comprising:
- a plurality of carbon nanotubes, the plurality of carbon nanotubes arranged in an array, wherein each carbon nanotube comprises a semiconducting carbon nanotube segment and a metallic carbon nanotube segment, and the semiconducting carbon nanotube segment and the metallic carbon nanotube segment are connected to each other and form an integrated structure.
A carbon nanotube array comprising:
- a carbon nanotube, wherein the at least one carbon nanotube consists of a plurality of semiconducting carbon nanotube segments and a plurality of metallic carbon nanotube segments, the semiconducting carbon nanotube segments alternating with the metallic carbon nanotube segments.
A carbon nanotube array comprising:
- a plurality of carbon nanotubes, the plurality of carbon nanotubes arranged in an array, wherein each of the carbon nanotubes consists of two metallic carbon nanotube segments and a single semiconducting carbon nanotube segment between the two metallic carbon nanotube segments, each of the two metallic carbon nanotube segments and the single semiconducting carbon nanotube segment are connected to each other and form an integrated structure;
- or each of the carbon nanotubes consists of two semiconducting carbon nanotube segments and a single metallic carbon nanotube segment between the two semiconducting carbon nanotube segments, each of the two semiconducting carbon nanotube segments and the single metallic carbon nanotube segment are connected to each other and form an integrated structure.
