A technology called RINSE (Removal of Incubated Nanotubes through Selective Exfoliation) is demonstrated. RINSE removes carbon nanotube (CNT) aggregates in CNFETs without compromising CNFET performance. In RINSE, CNTs are deposited on a substrate, coated with a thin adhesive layer, and sonicated. The adhesive layer is strong enough to keep the individual CNTs on the substrate, but not the larger CNT aggregates. When combined with a CNFET CMOS process as disclosed here, record CNFET CMOS yield and uniformity can be realized.
