High-mobility diamond field effect transistor with a monocrystalline h-BN gate dielectric

Low on-resistance diamond field effect transistor with high-k ZrO2 as dielectric

Although several high-k insulators have been deposited on the diamond for metal-insulator-semiconductor field effect transistors (MISFETs) fabrication, the k values and current output are still not fully satisfactory. Here, we present a high-k ZrO2 layer on the diamond for the MISFETs. The k value for ZrO2 is determined by capacitance-voltage characteristic to be 15.4. The leakage current densi...

Transistor Characteristics with Ta O Gate Dielectric

As the gate oxide thickness decreases below 2 nm, the gate leakage current increases dramatically due to direct tunneling current. This large gate leakage current will be an obstacle to reducing gate oxide thickness for the high speed operation of future devices. A MOS transistor with Ta2O5 gate dielectric is fabricated and characterized as a possible replacement for MOS transistors with ultra-...

Field-effect transistor on SrTiO3 with sputtered Al2O3 gate insulator

Double-gate nanowire field effect transistor for a biosensor.

A silicon nanowire field effect transistor (FET) straddled by the double-gate was demonstrated for biosensor application. The separated double-gates, G1 (primary) and G2 (secondary), allow independent voltage control to modulate channel potential. Therefore, the detection sensitivity was enhanced by the use of G2. By applying weakly positive bias to G2, the sensing window was significantly broa...

A dielectric-modulated field-effect transistor for biosensing.

Interest in biosensors based on field-effect transistors (FETs), where an electrically operated gate controls the flow of charge through a semiconducting channel, is driven by the prospect of integrating biodetection capabilities into existing semiconductor technology. In a number of proposed FET biosensors, surface interactions with biomolecules in solution affect the operation of the gate or ...
