The generation of highly collimated electron beams from a double-gate field emitter array with 40000 metallic tips and large collimation gate apertures is reported. Field emission beam measurements demonstrated the reduction of the beam envelope down to the array size by applying a negative potential to the on-chip gate electrode for the collimation of individual field emission beamlets. Owing ...

In this work we fabricate and characterize field-effect transistors based on the solution-processable semiconducting polymer poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT). Applying two independent gate potentials to the electrolyte-gated organic field-effect transistor (EGOFET), by using a conventional SiO(2) layer as the back-gate dielectric and the electrolyte-gate as the top-gate, allows the measurement of ...

According to Moore’s law, the number of transistor embedded on integrated circuit (IC) doubles approximately every two years. Thus, the size of Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) has to be scaled down as an increase in packing density. In current technology, the size of a transistor has shrunk below 45nm, and it has already reached its physical limit. Any attempt to shri...

Analysis of the electrostatic characteristics and the gate capacitance of typical nanostructured carbon nanotube field effect transistors (CNTFETs) were performed numerically. A previously developed parallelized electrostatic Poisson’s equation solver (PPES) is employed, coupled with a parallel adaptive mesh refinement (PAMR) to improve the numerical accuracy near the region where variation of ...

In this paper, we demonstrate high mobility solution-processed metal-oxide thin-film transistors (TFTs) by using a high-frequency-stable ionic-type hybrid gate dielectric (HGD). The HGD gate dielectric, a blend of sol-gel aluminum oxide (AlOx) and poly(4-vinylphenol) (PVP), exhibited high dielectric constant (ε~8.15) and high-frequency-stable characteristics (1 MHz). Using the ionic-type HGD as...

Double-gate carbon nanotube field effect transistors (DGCNTFETs) are novel devices showing an interesting property allowing to control the por n-type behavior during the device operation. This opens up the opportunity for novel design paradigms. Based on a compact physical model of these devices, we demonstrate the benefit of designing field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) using fine-grain DG-...
