چکیده
Abstract This paper reports an enhancement of the nonvolatile memory characteristics GaN/AlN resonant tunnelling diodes (RTDs) by reducing crystal defects in quantum well structure. Pit-shaped are strongly suppressed when pure N 2 , instead a /H mixture, is used as carrier gas and trimethylindium introduced surfactant for metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy In addition, density dislocations lowered controlling growth conditions structure buffer layer between RTD sapphire (0001) substrate. The leakage current through lowered, extremely high ON/OFF >1300, which 20 times higher than values obtained previous studies, induced. Theoretical calculations based on Poisson’s equation Tsu–Esaki formula indicate that ratio >10 3 can be enhanced increasing electrons accumulating to level order 10 18 cm –3 . Furthermore, operations were performed inputting sequential pulse voltages with speed nanosecond time scale faster speeds electron release from defects. These results RTDs due intersubband transitions accumulation not attributed trapping

Quantum tunnelling and charge accumulation in organic ferroelectric memory diodes
Non-volatile memories-providing the information storage functionality-are crucial circuit components. Solution-processed organic ferroelectric memory diodes are the non-volatile memory candidate for flexible electronics, as witnessed by the industrial demonstration of a 1 kbit reconfigurable memory fabricated on a plastic foil. Further progress, however, is limited owing to the lack of understa...
متن کاملResonant Tunnelling Optoelectronic Circuits
Nowadays, most communication networks such as local area networks (LANs), metropolitan area networks (MANs), and wide area networks (WANs) have replaced or are about to replace coaxial cable or twisted copper wire with fiber optical cables. Light-wave communication systems comprise a transmitter based on a visible or near-infrared light source, whose carrier is modulated by the information sign...
متن کاملPhotoluminescence Characterisation of High Current Density Resonant Tunnelling Diodes for Terahertz Applications
High structural perfection, wafer uniformity, and reproducibility are key parameters for high-volume, low cost manufacture of resonant tunnelling diode (RTD) terahertz (THz) devices. Low-cost, rapid, and non-destructive techniques are required for the development of such devices. In this paper, we report photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy as a non-destructive characterisation technique for hig...
