This has led to significant interest among the researchers to examine novel device technologies utilizing different materials to sustain the scaling limits of the modern day integrated circuits. Among various material alternatives, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been extensively investigated owing to their desirable properties such as minimal short channel effects, high mobility, and high normalized drive currents. CNTs form the most important component of CNTFETs, which are being viewed as the most feasible alternatives for the replacement of silicon transistors. In this manuscript, detailed description of the recent advances of state of the art in the field of CNTFETs with emphasis on the most broadly impactful applications for which they are being employed is presented. The future prospects of CNTFETs while considering aggressively scaled transistor technologies are also briefly discussed. © 2023 IOP Publishing Ltd. date: 2023 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85166937186&doi=10.1088%2f1402-4896%2face855&partnerID=40&md5=9192087e9b3eed3706a345a3db4aab68 id_number: 10.1088/1402-4896/ace855 full_text_status: none publication: Physica Scripta volume: 98 number: 8 refereed: TRUE citation: Zahoor, F. and Hanif, M. and Isyaku Bature, U. and Bodapati, S. and Chattopadhyay, A. and Azmadi Hussin, F. and Abbas, H. and Merchant, F. and Bashir, F.
