Contacts with Nanocarbon Structures in Flexible Electronics

Abstract

We present a review of existing published works on carbon nanostructures such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and carbon nanofibers, including their use as MOSFET channel and/or interconnect materials. The characteristics of material contacts with carbon-based nanostructures are examined for potential applications in flexible wearable electronics. Combining results of electrical measurements and interface characterization provides the necessary knowledge for continuous improvements of the nanostructure fabrication process and contact properties.
