摘要:
An optical semiconductor device such as a light emitting diode (60) is formed on a transparent substrate (62) having formed thereon a template layer (64), such as AIN, which is transparent to the wavelength of emission of the optical device. A variable period variable composition superlattice strain relief region (68,70) is provided over the template layer such that the composition of the strain relief region approaches or matches the composition of the regions contiguous thereto. For example, the Al content of the strain relief region may be tailored to provide a stepped or gradual Aluminum content from template (64) to active layer (72). Strain-induced cracking and defect density are reduced or eliminated.

Each group of layers may include a plurality of stacked base semiconductor monolayers defining a base semiconductor portion having a crystal lattice, at least one non-semiconductor monolayer constrained within the crystal lattice of adjacent base semiconductor portions, and a spintronic dopant. The spintronic dopant may be constrained within the crystal lattice of the base semiconductor portion by the at least one non-semiconductor monolayer. In some embodiments, the repeating structure of a superlattice may not be needed.

A structurally gradient material comprising base material (1) and, provided thereon by coating, functional material (2), having been heat-treated with a desired temperature gradient in specified direction and region of the functional material provided on the base material. Thus, the functional material provided on the base material can have nonconventional useful capability and can realize nonconventional high performance without implementing "composition gradient" with respect to component concentration, oxide content, crystal structure, etc.

Pathways to rapid and reliable fabrication of three-dimensional nanostructures are provided. Simple methods are described for the production of well-ordered, multilevel nanostructures. This is accomplished by patterning block copolymer templates with selective exposure to a radiation source. The resulting multi-scale lithographic template can be treated with post-fabrication steps to produce multilevel, three-dimensional, integrated nanoscale media, devices, and systems.

Provided are a semiconductor device having a superlattice semiconductor layer and a method of fabricating the same. The semiconductor device includes a superlattice semiconductor layer in which first material layers and second material layers formed of different materials are alternately stacked. A plurality holes are formed in the first material layers and the second material layers forming a superlattice structure, and the holes are filled with materials of the adjacent material layers. The provided superlattice structure reduces a driving voltage by transferring charges through the holes in the first material layers and the second material layers while maintaining a predetermined optical confinement characteristic.
摘要:
A semiconductor device includes a substrate, and at least one MOSFET adjacent the substrate. The MOSFET may include a superlattice channel that, in turn, includes a plurality of stacked groups of layers. The MOSFET may also include source and drain regions laterally adjacent the superlattice channel, and a gate overlying the superlattice channel for causing transport of charge carriers through the superlattice channel in a parallel direction relative to the stacked groups of layers. Each group of the superlattice channel may include a plurality of stacked base semiconductor monolayers defining a base semiconductor portion, and an energy band-modifying layer thereon. The energy-band modifying layer may include at least one non-semiconductor monolayer constrained within a crystal lattice of adjacent base semiconductor portions so that the superlattice channel may have a higher charge carrier mobility in the parallel direction than would otherwise occur.
摘要:
A semiconductor quantum oscillation device which can produce an oscillation on the basis of a novel injection principle of carriers includes a structure made of a multilayer material and a means for applying a voltage to said structure. The multilayer structure has a tunneling injection region and a pair of oscillation regions which are provided in both side of the tunneling injection region and contact with it. The means for applying a voltage applies a voltage to the pair of oscillation regions and causes the valence band electron in tunneling region to tunnel interbandly into the conduct band, so as to introduce electrons and holes which are to generate a quantum oscillation motion and to cause a far-infrared radiation. This can fully utilize the electromagnetic wave between the high end of millimetric wave and the low end of the far-infrared.
