Abstract | We propose a novel single-molecule organic field effect transistor (FET) fabricated via covalent functionalization of an individual metallic single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT). The transfer characteristic of this FET is calculated by using ab initio quantum transport calculations. Because of the significantly reduced screening effect of the quasi-one-dimensional electrode and seamless connection between the electrode and scattering region, the optimized device shows an excellent overall performance over the experimental single-molecule organic field effect transistors. This renders functionalized metallic SWCNTs a promising candidate for a high-performance single-molecule organic field effect transistor. |
