Scaling trends and performance evaluation of 2-dimensional polarity-controllable FETs

چکیده
Two-dimensional semiconducting materials of the transition-metal-dichalcogenide family, such as MoS2 and WSe2, have been intensively investigated in the past few years, and are considered as viable candidates for next-generation electronic devices. In this paper, for the first time, we study scaling trends and evaluate the performances of polarity-controllable devices realized with undoped mono- and bi-layer 2D materials. Using ballistic self-consistent quantum simulations, it is shown that, with the suitable channel material, such polarity-controllable technology can scale down to 5 nm gate lengths, while showing performances comparable to the ones of unipolar, physically-doped 2D electronic devices.

Polarity control in WSe2 double-gate transistors
As scaling of conventional silicon-based electronics is reaching its ultimate limit, considerable effort has been devoted to find new materials and new device concepts that could ultimately outperform standard silicon transistors. In this perspective two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides, such as MoS2 and WSe2, have recently attracted considerable interest thanks to their electrical ...
متن کاملGraphene polarity controllable amplifier and its applications
This paper exploits the unique ambipolar conduction property of graphene field effect transistors to realize a single transistor polarity controllable amplifier. The amplifier is polarity controllable since its small signal gain can be switched between positive and negative modes through proper biasing. Polarity controllable amplifiers can greatly simplify communication circuits in applications...

While it has been shown that scandium (Sc) can be used for making high-quality Ohmic contact to the conduction band of a carbon nanotube (CNT) and thus for fabricating high-performance n-type CNT field effect transistors (FETs), the cost for metal Sc is currently five times more expensive than that for gold and one thousand times more expensive than for yttrium (Y) which in many ways resembles ...
متن کاملGraphene and nanowire transistors for cellular interfaces and electrical recording.
Nanowire field-effect transistors (NW-FETs) have been shown to be powerful building blocks for nanoscale bioelectronic interfaces with cells and tissue due to their excellent sensitivity and their capability to form strongly coupled interfaces with cell membranes. Graphene has also been shown to be an attractive building block for nanoscale electronic devices, although little is known about its...

We demonstrate lithographically fabricated Si nanowire field effect transistors (FETs) with long Si nanowires of tiny cross sectional size (∼3-5 nm) exhibiting high performance without employing complementarily doped junctions or high channel doping. These nanowire FETs show high peak hole mobility (as high as over 1200 cm(2)/(V s)), current density, and drive current as well as low drain leaka...
