Edited by Dr. Jose Mauricio Marulanda Dr. Jose Mauricio Marulanda has a Doctor of Philosophy in Electrical Engineering from Louisiana State University. He has a Masters and a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering as well. He is currently working as a Senior Hardware Engineer for the Research and Development Center at ABB, Inc. At ABB, he currently conducts research in the area of Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). His areas of expertise are Computer Aided Design, VLSI, integrated circuit modeling and design. He has experience with system level validation by qualifying products to be released into the market with zero defects. He has an extensive academic and research experience in VLSI, MOS and bipolar devices, semiconductor device physics, device modeling and carbon nanotubes. His work in carbon nanotubes includes generating models for the electron transport in carbon nanotubes and their implementation as field effect transistors, logic gates, biosensors and interconnects. He has published several papers on carbon nanotubes for peer-reviewed journals and international conferences. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), discovered in 1991, have been a subject of intensive research for a wide range of applications. These one-dimensional (1D) graphene sheets rolled into a tubular form have been the target of many researchers around the world. This book concentrates on the semiconductor physics of carbon nanotubes, it brings unique insight into the phenomena encountered in the electronic structure when operating with carbon nanotubes. This book also presents to reader useful information on the fabrication and applications of these outstanding materials. The main objective of this book is to give in-depth understanding of the physics and electronic structure of carbon nanotubes.

Readers of this book should have a strong background on physical electronics and semiconductor device physics. This book first discusses fabrication techniques followed by an analysis on the physical properties of carbon nanotubes, including density of states and electronic structures. Ultimately, the book pursues a significant amount of work in the industry applications of carbon nanotubes.
