One-Day Mini-Workshop on Carbon-Nanotube FETs
Co-sponsored by
The NSF Network for Computational Nanotechnology
The NASA Insititute for Nanoelectronics and Computing
May 13, 2003 - 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.
University of Illinois - Chicago (East Campus)
Science and Engineering Office Building (SEO),
10th Floor, Room 1000
Covered Topics
This informal one-day workshop is intended to discuss theory, modeling, and simulation for CNT-electronics, specifically FETs. The objective is to kick-off an NSF-funded project on the modeling and simulation of CNT-electronics. A small group of experimentalists, theorists, and computational experts will
- review the current status of experimental work and key issues
- review related work on electrons and phonons in quantum-confined semiconductor structures
- discuss key theoretical issues and simulation needs for CNT's.
Our objective is to convene a small group to discuss the issues and approaches before we start developing software tools for CNT electronics.
