Abstract

Photoinduced conductivity changes in single-walled carbon nanotube transistors have been examined. Low-intensity ultraviolet light significantly reduces the p-channel conductance while simultaneously increasing the n-channel conductance. A combination of optical absorption and electron transport measurements reveals that these changes occur without variations in dopant concentrations. Possible sites of oxygen photodesorption and its implications on the observed electronic properties of nanotubes are considered.
