ABSTRACT

We demonstrate random network single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) field-effect transistors (FETs) in bottom contact/top gate geometry with only five different semiconducting nanotube species that were selected by dispersion with poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) in toluene. These FETs are highly ambipolar with balanced hole and electron mobilities and emit near-infrared light with narrow peak widths (
