Abstract

Statistical study of electrical conduction on a large array of devices based on carbon nanotube films shows a weakly dispersive film conductivity, and a specific contact resistance of 1.1 10^-6 ω cm², which is four orders of magnitude lower than previously reported values. This allows identifying the conductivity of the carbon nanotube films as driven by a fluctuation induced tunneling mechanism. Such results pave the way to the realization of optoelectronic devices, such as highly sensitive light or gas sensor arrays.
