Abstract

Novel type of a field effect transistor (FET) is described. A metallic channel of a metallic nanotube FET is proposed to be switched ON/OFF by applying electric fields of a local gate. Very inhomogeneous electric fields may lower the nanotube symmetry and open a band gap, as shown by tight-binding calculations.
