Abstract

A flip chip device based on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) interconnections characterized up to 40 GHz is presented. An analytical model using an RLC transmission line is fitted from measurements of the fabricated structure. CNTs have the potential to make smaller interconnections than metal-based ones with the same degree of performance. A value of 324 kΩ is found for the contact resistance between CNTs. A CNT-bundle-based flip chip with -2.5 dB insertion loss and return loss below -13 dB is presented.
