Electron mobility of a semiconducting carbon nanotube

This paper presents a model which predicts the mobility of zig-zag (n, m = 0) single-walled nanotubes (SWNTs) for tubes indices in the range of 10 /spl les/ n /spl les/ 58. These are small diameter tubes with a corresponding diameter range of 0.8 nm /spl les/ d /spl les/ 4.6 nm. The analytical model is fit to the results of Monte Carlo simulations, and low-field mobility values on the order of those found in experiments are obtained.
