چکیده
ZnO nanowire field-effect transistors (FETs) were fabricated and studied in vacuum and a variety of ambient gases from 5 to 300 K. In air, these n-type nanowire transistors have among the highest mobilities yet reported for ZnO FETs (mu(e) = 13 +/- 5 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1)), with carrier concentrations averaging 5.2 +/- 2.5 x 10(17) cm(-3) and on-off current ratios ranging from 10(5) to 10(7). Four probe measurements show that the resistivity of the Ti/Au-ZnO contacts is 0.002-0.02 Omega.cm. The performance characteristics of the nanowire transistors are intimately tied to the presence and nature of adsorbed surface species. In addition, we describe a dynamic gate effect that seems to involve mobile surface charges and causes hysteresis in the transconductance, among other effects.

متن کاملHigh-performance ZnO nanowire transistors with aluminum top-gate electrodes and naturally formed hybrid self-assembled monolayer/AlO(x) gate dielectric.
A method for the formation of a low-temperature hybrid gate dielectric for high-performance, top-gate ZnO nanowire transistors is reported. The hybrid gate dielectric consists of a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) and an aluminum oxide layer. The thin aluminum oxide layer forms naturally and spontaneously when the aluminum gate electrode is deposited by thermal evaporation onto the SAM-covered Zn...

We have synthesized single crystalline ZnO nanowires by thermal evaporation method and fabricated individual ZnO nanowire field effect transistors (FETs) to investigate their electrical properties. ZnO nanowires are strongly affected by O2 molecules in ambient. For example, surface defects such as oxygen vacancies act as adsorption sites of O2 molecules, and the chemisorption of O2 molecules de...

A novel approach for the fabrication of transistors and circuits based on individual single-crystalline ZnO nanowires synthesized by a low-temperature hydrothermal method is reported. The gate dielectric of these transistors is a self-assembled monolayer that has a thickness of 2 nm and efficiently isolates the ZnO nanowire from the top-gate electrodes. Inverters fabricated on a single ZnO nano...
متن کاملLarge-scale Ni-doped ZnO nanowire arrays and electrical and optical properties.
Large-scale Ni-doped ZnO nanowire (NW) arrays are grown. The electrical conductivity of a single Ni-doped ZnO NW has been increased for 30 times. The photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of the doped ZnO NWs has a red shift, suggesting possible doping induced band edge bending. The doped NW arrays could be the basis for building integrated nanoscale transistors, sensors, and photodetectors.
