Abstract

A semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) field-effect transistor (FET) in a top-gate model was constructed. The effect of different high-${\kappa}$ dielectric materials ($Al_2O_3$, $HfO_2$ and HfSiON) and various temperatures with a wide range from 50K to 500K on the performance of such nominal device were investigated. Several key device parameters including the on/off ratio of the current, transconductance ($g_m$), subthreshold swing, and carrier mobility were used to evaluate the device performance. The simulated results fit well with the experiment results previously published.
