Sensitivity Analysis of Wave Propagation in a Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube

Abstract

Literal expressions of the parameters characterizing the common mode wave propagation in a single-walled carbon nanotube are presented. The sensitivity functions of the line parameters with respect to the frequency and the distributed line constants are represented in analytical form. The "electrically short" nano transmission line is described by a very simple simulation model. Frequency spectra of the line parameters and their sensitivity functions are shown in the range up to 10 GHz.

Modelling of multiwall carbon nanotube transmission lines

“…The analogy between the signal propagation along electronic waveguide (EW) [3] and SWCNT was exploited in [4]. The model was then applied to the analysis of the propagation characteristics at radio-frequency of a single SWCNT in horizontal or vertical configuration [5] and of a SWCNT bundle [6].…”
