3, thermal conductivity is more superior: the thermal conductance of single-layer graphene is reported as 5300W/mK, when being applied in interconnection technique, can have more excellent heat dissipation characteristics, thus improves the reliability performance of interconnection;
4, resistivity is with different GNR(zigzag) rim condition can turn to conductor by semiconductor variable, makes it possible to for different boundary structure to design its different range of application.
Carbon nano-tube (CarbonNanotube) is then a kind of carbon molecule of tubulose, and on pipe, each carbon atom takes SP 2hydridization, each other with carbon-to-carbon σ bond altogether, forms the alveolate texture that is made up of the hexagon skeleton as carbon nano-tube.The a pair p electronics each carbon atom having neither part nor lot in hydridization forms the conjugated pi electron cloud crossing over whole carbon nano-tube each other.Different according to the number of plies of pipe, be divided into Single Walled Carbon Nanotube and multi-walled carbon nano-tubes.The radial direction of pipe is very thin, only have nanoscale, and the length of nanotube can reach hundreds of micron.Carbon nano-tube has very excellent machinery and electrology characteristic, and be also a kind of nano material being applied to the great potential of interconnection technique, especially it is along the guidance quality growth characteristics of catalyst.
