  • Patent number: 9261714
    Abstract: A plasmonic all-optical switch includes a graphene layer, a first dielectric layer located on the graphene layer, a nano-antenna located on the first dielectric layer, and a second dielectric layer located on the nano-antenna. An incident beam is propagated by means of a surface plasmon wave generated at an interface between the graphene layer and the first dielectric layer. Further, localized surface plasmon resonance is selectively generated at an interface between the nano-antenna and the second dielectric layer by means of a pump beam incident to the nano-antenna to decrease an intensity of the incident beam. The plasmonic all-optical switch may operate at an ultrahigh speed just with a small light energy without any electric method, greatly reduce power consumption of an IT device by applying to an all-optical transistor or the like, and increase a processing rate.

  • Patent number: 8999820
    Abstract: There are provided a fabricating method of a carbon nanotube-based field effect transistor having an improved binding force with a substrate and a carbon nanotube-based field effect transistor fabricated by the fabricating method. The method includes forming an oxide film on a substrate, forming a photoresist pattern on the oxide film, forming a metal film on the entire surface of the oxide film having the photoresist pattern, removing the photoresist by lifting off, adsorbing carbon nanotubes on the substrate from which the photoresist is removed, performing an annealing process to the substrate to which the carbon nanotubes are adsorbed, and removing the metal film. Since an adhesive strength between a substrate and carbon nanotubes increases, stability and reliability of a field effect transistor can be improved. If the field effect transistor is applied to a liquid sensor or the like, a lifespan of the sensor can be extended and reliability of a measurement result obtained by the sensor can be improved.
