  • Patent number: 11322702
    Abstract: Electrical device including a substrate having a surface and a radiofrequency field effect transistor (RF-FET) on the substrate surface. RF-FET includes a CNT layer on the substrate surface, the CNT layer including electrically conductive aligned carbon nanotubes, and pin-down anchor layers on the CNT layer. A first portion of the CNT layer, located in-between the pin-down anchor layers, is not covered by the pin-down anchor layers and is a channel region of the radiofrequency field effect transistor and second portions of the CNT layer are covered by the pin-down anchor layers. For cross-sections in a direction perpendicular to a common alignment direction of the aligned CNTs in the first portion of the CNT layer: the aligned CNTs have an average linear density in a range from 20 to 120 nanotubes per micron along the cross-section, and at least 40 percent of the aligned CNTs are discrete from any CNTs of the CNT layer.

  • Patent number: 11158798
    Abstract: A system for producing a layer of aligned carbon nanotubes, the system comprising: a sprayer, a solution delivery tube configured to deliver a carbon nanotube solution to the sprayer, the carbon nanotube solution including carbon nanotubes dispersed in chloroform, and a reservoir configured to contain a water subphase. The sprayer is configured to generate a continuous spray of the carbon nanotube solution. The continuous floating layer is supported by the subphase. The spray of carbon nanotube solution includes droplets of the carbon nanotube solution, the droplets having a median diameter in a range from about 1 to about 100 microns. The sprayer maintains the continuous floating layer of carbon nanotube solution on the subphase as a substrate is inserted into or removed from the subphase, the carbon nanotube solution being in contact with the substrate.

  • Patent number: 10833284
    Abstract: Manufacturing an electrical device including providing a substrate having a surface and forming a radiofrequency field effect transistor on the surface, including forming a CNT layer on the surface and depositing a pin-down layer on the CNT layer. The pin-down layer is patterned to form separate pin-down anchor layers. A first portion of the CNT layer, located in-between the pin-down anchor layers and second portions of the CNT layer are covered by the pin-down anchor layers. For cross-sections in a direction perpendicular to a common alignment direction of the electrically conductive aligned carbon nanotubes in the first portion of the CNT layer the electrically conductive aligned carbon nanotubes have an average linear density in a range from 20 to 120 nanotubes per micron along the cross-sections, and at least 40 percent of the electrically conductive aligned carbon nanotubes are discrete from any carbon nanotubes of the CNT layer.
