    摘要: III-N transistors with epitaxial semiconductor heterostructures having steep subthreshold slope are described. In embodiments, a III-N HFET employs a gate stack with balanced and opposing III-N polarization materials. Overall effective polarization of the opposing III-N polarization materials may be modulated by an external field, for example associated with an applied gate electrode voltage. In embodiments, polarization strength differences between the III-N materials within the gate stack are tuned by composition and/or film thickness to achieve a desired transistor threshold voltage (Vt). With polarization strengths within the gate stack balanced and opposing each other, both forward and reverse gate voltage sweeps may generate a steep sub-threshold swing in drain current as charge carriers are transferred to and from the III-N polarization layers and the III-N channel semiconductor.

    摘要: A shadow mask method to fabricate electrodes with nanometer scale separation utilizes nanotubes (NTs). Metal wires (4) with gaps are made by incorporating multi-wall carbon nanotubles (1) (MWNTs) or single- wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) (or bundles thereof) into a tri-layer electron beam lithography process. The simple, highly controllable, and scaleable method can be used to make gaps with widths between 1 and 100 nm. Electronic transport measurements performed on individual SWNTs bridge nanogaps smaller than 30 nm. Metallic SWNTs exhibits quantum dot behavior with an 80 neV charging energy and a 20 meV energy level splitting. Semiconducting SWNTs show an anomalous field effect transistor behavior.
