P TYPE SEMICONDUCTOR CARBON NANOTUBE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME

摘要

A p-type semiconductor carbon nanotube and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. The p-type semiconductor carbon nanotube includes a carbon nanotube; and a halogen element that is attached to an inner wall of the carbon nanotube and accepts electrons from the carbon nanotube to achieve p-type doping of the carbon nanotube. The p-type semiconductor carbon nanotube is stable at high temperatures and can maintain intrinsic good electrical conductivity of the carbon nanotube. The p-type semiconductor carbon nanotube can be relatively easily obtained using a conventional method of manufacturing a carbon nanotube, thereby significantly broadening the range of application of the carbon nanotube to electronic devices.
