Proposal of Carbon Nanotube Inductors

Abstract

The inductors made of carbon Nanotube (CNT) have been proposed. Though the fabrication of the proposed inductor is still challenging and has many problems, merits of the proposed inductor are following, (i)The magnetic field induced by the current in CNT is about one thousand times larger than that induced by the current in normal copper wire. (ii)The large magnetic field results in the large inductance, according to the relation between magnetic field and inductance. (iii)The inductor made of CNT is smaller than the inductor in IC circuits, because CNT can be bent with small curvature.
