Nanoelectromechanical transistors (NEMTs) and methods of forming the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, an NEMT may include a substrate including a gate adjacent thereto, a source region and a drain region; an electromechanically deflectable nanotube member; and a channel member electrically insulatively coupled to the nanotube member so as to be aligned with the source region and the drain region, wherein electromechanical deflection of the nanotube member is controllable, in response to an electrical potential applied to the gate and the nanotube member, between an off state and an on state, the on state placing the channel member in electrical connection with the source region and the drain region to form a current path.
