Quantitative Theory of Nanowire and Nanotube Antenna Performance
Abstract
We present quantitative predictions of the performance of nanotubes and nanowires as antennas, including the radiation resistance, the input reactance and resistance, and antenna efficiency, as a function of frequency and nanotube length. Particular attention is paid to the quantum capacitance and kinetic inductance. In so doing, we also develop a circuit model for a transmission line made of two parallel nanotubes, which has applications for nano-interconnect technology.
