Abstract

Electronic properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) filled with Fe nanoparticles are studied by fabricating them as the channels of field-effect transistors (FETs). Our results reveal that Fe-filled SWNTs at low filling levels can exhibit high-performance p-n junction diode behavior. The synthesis of Fe-filled SWNTs is confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation, and magnetic properties of Fe encapsulated SWNTs are characterized by means of SQUID measurements.
