Abstract
A permeable base transistor (PBT) having a base layer including metallic nanotubes embedded in a semiconductor crystal material is disclosed. The nanotube base layer separates emitter and collector layers of the semiconductor material.
Claims11
A permeable base transistor comprising:
- (a) a semiconductor emitter;
- (b) a semiconductor collector;
- and
- (c) a permeable base in contact with the emitter and collector, wherein the base includes a layer of nanotubes including metallic nanotubes, and wherein the emitter, base and collector are formed as layers with the base between the emitter and collector layers.
