Abstract
N-type carbon nanotubes (CNTs)-based field-effect transistors (FETs) have huge potential applications in low-power consumption tunnel FETs. However, the low-work function metal electrodes can achieve n-type CNTs, but they are easily oxidized due to poor environmental stability. Therefore, based on first-principles calculations, we proposed halide perovskite nanowires Cs4MX5 (M = Pb, Sn; X = Cl, Br, I) inner filling to achieve n-type single-walled CNTs (SWCNTs). The results indicated that all the perovskite nanowires located at the center of the SWCNTs possess high stability. Moreover, the diameter of SWCNTs is a crucial factor affecting the inner filling of perovskite nanowires with an optimal diameter of about 1.4 nm. Furthermore, all the perovskite nanowires Cs4MX5 are excellent electron donors, and the largest charge transfer is up to 1.72 e/nm for Cs4SnI5. Their interaction mechanism reveals that the low work function and the large internal bandgap are two important factors for cubic-phase nanowires to realize the n-type CNTs. Our findings provide some candidate materials and a feasible way to achieve n-type CNTs for applying CNTs-based FETs.
