Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 8Comparison of Electron and Phonon Transport in Disordered Semiconductor Carbon Nanotubes(Springer Verlag, 2013) Sevinçli, Haldun; Sevinçli, Haldun; Ryndyk, D. A.; Cuniberti, G.; 03.09. Department of Materials Science and Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyCharge and thermal conductivities are the most important parameters of carbon nanomaterials as candidates for future electronics. In this paper we address the effects of Anderson type disorder in long semiconductor carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to electron charge conductivity and lattice thermal conductivity using the atomistic Green function approach. The electron and phonon transmissions are analyzed as a function of the length of the disordered nanostructures. The thermal conductance as a function of temperature is calculated for different lengths. Analysis of the transmission probabilities as a function of length of the disordered device shows that both electrons and phonons with different energies display different transport regimes, i.e. quasi-ballistic, diffusive and localization regimes coexist. In the light of the results we discuss heating of the semiconductor device in electronic applications.

Department of Pyhsics; 04. Faculty of Science; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyCarbon nanotubes (CNTs) were grown on thin iron (Fe) films on SiO 2/Si substrates by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) at four different hydrogen (H2)/methane (CH4) ratios at temperatures ranging from 925 to 1000°C. The effects of temperature and the amount of hydrogen gas on the mean diameter at increasing temperature were examined. We demonstrated that the mean diameter and its distribution depend not only on temperature but also on the H2 amount. We showed that increasing H2 amount strongly affects the structure of CNTs, especially at high growth temperature; the mean diameter at 1000°C reduced from about 383 to 34 nm by increasing H2 amount from 24 to 50 sccm. We observed that at high temperature growth the mean diameter was decreasing very fast initially with increasing H2 amount suggesting the dominance of H2 over the growth temperature. A decrease in the slope of diameter vs. H 2 amount with further increment in H2 amount implied that the temperature was, then, deciding the CNT diameter through catalyst particle coarsening. The statistical analysis presented implies that the H2 amount has to be adjusted according to the growth temperature for given CH 4 amount to keep CNT diameter under control, and the large diameter distributions at high temperature and high H2 amount can be associated with the large variation in the catalyst particle sizes. © 2010 Springer-Verlag.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 39Citation - Scopus: 48Temperature Dependence of Electrical Conductivity in Double-Wall and Multi-Wall Carbon Nanotube/Polyester Nanocomposites(Springer Verlag, 2007) Şimşek, Yılmaz; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Tanoğlu, Metin; Schulte, Karl; Tanoğlu, Metin; 03.10.

Izmir Institute of TechnologyThe aim of this study is to investigate temperature dependence of electrical conductivity of carbon nanotube (CNT)/polyester nanocomposites from room temperature to 77 K using four-point probe test method. To produce nanocomposites, various types and amounts of CNTs (0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 wt.%) were dispersed via 3-roll mill technique within a specially formulized resin blend of thermoset polyesters. CNTs used in the study include multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNT) with and without amine functional groups (-NH2). It was observed that the incorporation of carbon nanotubes into resin blend yields electrically percolating networks and electrical conductivity of the resulting nanocomposites increases with increasing amount of nanotubes. However, nanocomposites containing amino functionalized carbon nanotubes exhibit relatively lower electrical conductivity compared to those with non-functionalized carbon nanotubes. To get better interpretation of the mechanism leading to conductive network via CNTs with and without amine functional groups, the experimental results were fitted to fluctuation-induced tunneling through the barriers between the metallic regions model. It was found that the results are in good agreement with prediction of proposed model.
