Single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) have been used as the active channels of field effect transistors (FET). The next development step involves the integration of CNTFETs to form logic gates; the basic units of computers. For this we need to have both p- and n-type CNTFETs. However, without special treatment, the obtained CNTFETs are always p-type: the current carriers are holes and the devices are ON for negative gate bias. Here we show that n-type CNTFETs can be prepared not only by doping but also by a simple annealing of SWNT-based p-FETs in a vacuum. We use our ability to prepare both p- and n-type nanotube transistors to build the first nanotube-based logic gates: voltage inverters. Using spatially resolved doping we implemented this logic function on a single nanotube bundle.
