Abstract

A resonant transistor includes a substrate, a source and a drain formed on the substrate, an input electrode and a carbon nanotube gate. A gap is formed between the source and the drain. The input electrode is formed on the substrate. The carbon nanotube gate is clamped on one end by a contact electrode and positioned, preferably cantilevered, over the gap and over the input electrode.
