Nanotubes have generated intense research activities from scientists of various disciplines because they represent a new class of materials for the study of one-dimensional physics. Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) have many other magnificent properties and it has impressive properties in three aspects, mechanical, electrical and biological due to ability of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) to exhibit self-assemble monolayer (SAM). The main objective of this project is to design and fabricate carbon nanotube based biosensor for future application medical diagnostics. The electrical transport of semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes with the diameter of ~1.5 nm and length of 2 μm to 6 μm for its applications as biomolecules detection was investigated. Single-walled carbon nanotubes field effect transistors (SWNT-FET) were fabricated in house using three masks designed. Initially backgated field effect transistor (FET) was formed and followed with the growth of oxide as insulation layer.
