A W-spacer GOLD TFT with high performance and high reliability

چکیده
In this paper, we successfully fabricated Gate-Overlapped Lightly-doped Drain (GOLD) polycrystalline silicon thinfilm transistors (poly-Si TFTs) with selectively deposited spacers. Under appropriate deposition conditions, tungsten (W) films can be selectively deposited on poly-Si gate electrodes to form spacers without any additional etching process. Compared to the conventional poly-Si TFTs without LDD structures, our devices effectively suppress the kink effect and the punch-through phenomenon in short-channel devices. The hot-carrier reliability of our devices is also improved due to the reduced electric field on the drain side. In addition, the transconductance of our devices is compatible to that of conventional devices. This is because the W-spacer acts as a part of gate electrode to induce channel when the device is operated under ON state. r 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Effects of the Spacer Length on the High-Frequency Nanoscale Field Effect Diode performance
The performance of nanoscale Field Effect Diodes as a function of the spacer length between two gates is investigated. Our numerical results show that the Ion/Ioff ratio which is a significant parameter in digital application can be varied from 101 to 104 for S-FED as the spacer length between two gates increases whereas this ratio is approximately constant for M-FED. The high-frequency perform...

DNA-based nano-biosensors are emerging scope in the field of biosensors. Many synthetic single stranded functional DNAs have been applied for development of such sensors, recently. Immobilization of DNA oligonucleotides on the surface of gold nanoparticles is a key step in the development of most colorimetric nano-biosensors. The bound DNA is usually thiolated and forms Au-S covalent bond to th...
متن کاملOptimization of Cement Spacer Rheology Model Using Genetic Algorithm (RESEARCH NOTE)
The primary cement job is a critical step in successful well completion. To achieve effective cementing job, complete mud removal from the annular is recommended. Spacer and flushers are used widely to achieve this goal. This study is about weighted cement spacer systems containing a surfactant package, weighting agent and rheological modifiers. Weighted spacer systems are utilized when a high ...
متن کاملPerformance analysis of a 127-micron pixel large-area TFT/photodiode array with boosted fill factor
Sensor fill factor is one of the key pixel design requirements for high performance imaging arrays. In our conventional imaging pixel architecture with a TFT and a photodiode deposited in the same plane, the maximum area that the photodiode can occupy is limited by the size of the TFT and the surrounding metal lines. A full fill factor array design was previously proposed using a continuous sen...
