摘要:
The present invention provides a nanostructured memory device comprising at least one semiconductor nanowire (3) forming a current transport channel, one or more shell layers (4) arranged around at least a portion of the nanowire (3), and nano-sized charge trapping centres (10) embedded in said one or more shell layers (4), and one or more gate electrodes (14) arranged around at least a respective portion of said one or more shell layers (4). Preferably said one or more shell layers (4) are made of a wide band gap material or an insulator. The charge trapping centres (10) may be charged/written by using said one or more gate electrodes (14) and a change in an amount of charge stored in one or more of the charge trapping centres (10) alters the conductivity of the nanowire (3).

摘要:
The present invention relates to epitaxial growth of nanowires on a substrate. In particular the invention relates to growth of nanowires on an Si-substrate without using Au as a catalyst. In the method according to the invention an oxide template is provided on a passivated surface of the substrate. The oxide template defines a plurality of nucleation onset positions for subsequent nanowire growth. According to one embodiment a thin organic film is used to form the oxide template.
