Abstract

A semiconductor device and method of manufacturing using carbon nanotubes are provided. In embodiments a stack of nanotubes are formed and then a non-destructive removal process is utilized to reduce the thickness of the stack of nanotubes. A device such as a transistor may then be formed from the reduced stack of nanotubes.
