Modeling hot-electrons effects in silicon-on-sapphire MOSFETs
A unified, closed form analytical drain current model for partially and fully depleted SOS MOSFETs was investigated. The analytical model was developed using first order principles of operation of the device and basic explanation of the physical constraints responsible for hot carriers effects. The approach solved for the channel field to find closed form solutions for the critical voltages giv...
متن کاملNanometer lithography on silicon and hydrogenated amorphous silicon with low energy electrons
We report the local oxidation of hydrogen terminated silicon (Si) surfaces induced with the scanning-tunneling microscope (STM) operating in air and by a beam of free low-energy electrons. With STM, oxide lines were written in Si(100) and Si(ll0) and transferred into the substrate by wet etching. In case of Si(ll0) trenches with a width as small as 35 nm and a depth of 300 nm were made. The sam...
متن کاملDefects in Amorphous Semiconductors: Amorphous Silicon
Defects in disordered (amorphous) semiconductors are discussed, with an emphasis on hydrogenated amorphous silicon. The general differences between defect phenomena in crystalline and amorphous hosts are described, and the special importance of the electron–phonon coupling is stressed. Detailed calculations for amorphous Si are presented using accurate first principles (density-functional) tech...
متن کاملHot Electrons and Hot Plasmons for Photovoltaics
Hot Electrons and Hot Plasmons for Photovoltaics David J. Norris Optical Materials Engineering Laboratory, ETH Zürich We will discuss two recently observed phenomena with implications for photovoltaic devices. First, it is well known that conventional silicon solar cells lose a significant fraction of their absorbed energy when electrons that are excited high into the conduction band cool to th...
متن کاملSelf-Diffusion in Amorphous Silicon.
The present Letter reports on self-diffusion in amorphous silicon. Experiments were done on ^{29}Si/^{nat}Si heterostructures using neutron reflectometry and secondary ion mass spectrometry. The diffusivities follow the Arrhenius law in the temperature range between 550 and 700 °C with an activation energy of (4.4±0.3) eV. In comparison with single crystalline silicon the diffusivities are tre...
