Abstract
We use the suspended single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) thin film technology to assemble the first prototype of an integrated optoelectronic SWNT device, a SWNT optocoupler in which a SWNT emitter and a SWNT detector couple two electrical circuits by the transmission of a signal through the optical channel. Our experiments show that the integrated SWNT emitter/SWNT detector is an ideal couple in which the broadband wavelength character of the emission matches the broadband detection capabilities.
