Abstract
Vacuum transistors with carbon nanotube as the collector and/or emitter electrodes are provided. In one aspect, a method for forming a vacuum transistor includes the steps of: covering a substrate with an insulating layer; forming a back gate(s) in the insulating layer; depositing a gate dielectric over the back gate; forming a carbon nanotube layer on the gate dielectric; patterning the carbon nanotube layer to provide first/second portions thereof over first/second sides of the back gate, separated from one another by a gap G, which serve as emitter and collector electrodes; forming a vacuum channel in the gate dielectric; and forming metal contacts to the emitter and collector electrodes. Vacuum transistors are also provided.
