Managing Noise and Crosstalk in CNT Interconnects by Using Semiconducting CNTs

In the immediate future, a main origin of reliability troubles in carbon nanotube (CNT)-based VLSI interconnects may be noise and crosstalk. Maintenance of signal integrity in integrated circuits (ICs) has been difficult due to the reduction of the size of components in IC to nanometer scale, in addition to high-density integration.
