Carbon nanotubes self-assemble from solution into transistors

Carbon nanotubes can self-assemble from solution into high electron mobility transistors, according to European researchers. A key trick, is to add thiol side chains to a polymer, which binds the tubes to gold electrodes. “The results look deceptively simple: a self-assembled transistor with nearly 100% purity and very high electron mobility, but it took ten ...
