Organic field-effect transistors using small-molecule organic single crystals are developed to investigate fundamental aspects of organic thin-film transistors that have been widely studied for possible future markets for 'plastic electronics'. In reviewing the physics and chemistry of single-crystal organic field-effect transistors (SC-OFETs), the nature of intrinsic charge dynamics is elucida...

As the scaling of Si MOSFET approaches towards its limiting value, new alternatives are coming up to overcome these limitations. In this paper first we have reviewed carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNTFET) and types of CNTFET. We have then studied the effect of channel length and chirality on the drain current for planer CNTFET. The Id~Vd curves for planer CNTFETs having different chan...

We measure the temperature distribution in a biased single-layer graphene transistor using Raman scattering microscopy of the 2D-phonon band. Peak operating temperatures of 1050 K are reached in the middle of the graphene sheet at 210 kW cm(-2) of dissipated electric power. The metallic contacts act as heat sinks, but not in a dominant fashion. To explain the observed temperature profile and he...

Herein, the magnetic field effect on source–drain current of organic field-effect transistors with semiconductor layers made H-bonded pigments is studied. In all devices, an external reduces in transistor. The independent direction applied field. observed increase magnetoresistance seems to originate from used or semiconductor–dielectric interface and not influenced by nature gate electrodes se...

The advantages of organic field-effect transistors (OFETs), such as low cost, flexibility and large-area fabrication, have recently attracted much attention due to their electronic applications. Practical transistors require high mobility, large on/off ratio, low threshold voltage and high stability. Development of new organic semiconductors is key to achieving these parameters. Recently, organ...

We have investigated the effect of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) adsorption on a graphene field-effect-transistor (FET) device. We have used graphene which is grown on a Ni substrate by chemical vapour deposition. The Raman spectra of our graphene indicate its high quality, and also show that it consists of only a few layers. The current-voltage characteristics of our bare graphene strip FET show...

We report the fabrication, and electrical and optical characterization, of solution-liquid-solid (SLS) grown CdSe nanowire field-effect transistors. Ultrathin nanowires (7–12 nm diameters) with lengths between 1 $m and 10 $m were grown by the SLS technique. Al-CdSe-Al junctions are then defined over oxidized Si substrate using photolithography. The nanowires, which were very resistive in the da...
