Description

Relays are electromechanical switches which are normally used to control high power electrical machineries. It is very important part for a control a single circuit or multiple circuits either with a low power signal or high-power signals. In this paper Carbon nanotube Relay has been used with trench of gold as electrode material and characteristics of carbon nanotube relay such as histogram of outer diameters, histogram of inner diameters, histogram of lengths, pull in voltage vs outer diameter, pull back voltage vs outer diameter, pull in voltage vs length, pull back voltage vs length, pullback voltage vs pull in voltage with various samples of 10, 100, 1000 and 10,000 and its values are simulated and its values are noted.
