A device comprising a nanotube configured as a resonator, a source electrode, a gate electrode, a drain electrode and at least one impeding element, wherein the at least one impeding element is configured to minimize energy loss due to a contact resistance between at least the source electrode and the nanotube.

Nanotube device

A nanotube apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a first electrode having a first edge. An array of nanotubes distributed in a closed path are also included. The closed path surrounds the first electrode and adjacent to the first edge. The closed path is also locally straight. Each of the nanotubes has an end that is free to oscillate. The apparatus also includes a second electrode having a second edge surrounding both the first electrode and the array of nanotubes. Methods are also described.

Apparatus, method, and computer program product providing edgeless carbon nanotube resonator arrays

The present invention relates to a nanotube device (), comprising a nanotube with a longitudinal and a lateral extension, a structure for supporting at least a first part of the nanotube, and first means for exerting a force upon the nanotube in a first direction defined by its lateral extension. At least a second part of the nanotube protrudes beyond the support of said structure, so that when said force exceeds a certain level, the second part of the nanotube will flex in the direction of its lateral extension, and thereby close a first electrical circuit. Suitably, the first means for exerting said force upon the nanotube is an electrical means, the force being created by applying a voltage to the means.
