For short‐channel field‐effect transistors with inkjet‐printed semiconducting carbon nanotubes, a novel fabrication strategy is developed by M. C. Hersam, A. Dodabalapur, and co‐workers to minimize material consumption. On page 5505 they show how a single droplet of 10 pL ink containing 0.5 pg of nanotubes can be used, confining the inkjet droplet into the active channel area. This fabrication approach is compatible with roll‐to‐roll processing and enables the formation of high‐performance short channel device arrays based on inkjet printing.
