"A physically based circuit model of on-chip spiral inductor made of a single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) bundle is investigated. The equivalent single conductor (ESC) approach is used to model the CNT bundle. The internal frequency-dependent resistance and inductance are computed by a finite element method (FEM). The eddy-current effect in the silicon substrate is taken into account by the complex image theory. The analytical expressions of the substrate capacitances and conductance are validated by FEM.
