A carbon nanotube-based field-effect transistor (CNT-FET) is a promising building block in many electronic and sensor applications. However, the actual performance of those devices has not reached predicted values yet. This can be related to the high sensitivity of the nanomaterial to its environment as well as its structural and compositional configuration. Thus better methods for the investigation of nanomaterials under application-close conditions are required. We demonstrate an in-depth analysis of the FET channel structure by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). Therefore, a special test platform was developed that facilitates electrical and transmission studies of integrated nanomaterials like CNTs. In this approach, special emphasis was laid on a wafer-level technology used for high-throughput FET fabrication enabling statistical studies. The concept as well as first investigations on exposed CNT-FET channel regions are going to be presented giving insights into chiral and elementary composition.
