Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)
Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is an established method for the integration of solution-processed single-walled carbon nanotubes into nanoscale device structures. However, this method is less effective for small-diameter semiconducting nanotubes and leads to an enrichment of metallic tubes in multi-tube devices. In this work, we present the first results of a novel light-assisted DEP technique, which enhances the deposition of (6,5) semiconducting carbon nanotubes. Transistors fabricated with this technique show higher on/off ratios compared to transistors that were fabricated by conventional DEP. We explain this effect by an enhanced polarizability of the irradiated semiconducting nanotubes and discuss spontaneous and field-driven exciton dissociation as the underlying mechanism. Strategies to further improve the effect are also proposed.
