文摘This paper proposes a compact model for carbon nanotube field effect transistor（CNTFET） based on surface potential and conduction band minima. The proposed model relates the I–V characteristics to chirality under quantum capacitance limit.

The model has been used to simulate an inverter using HSPICE.
