Transistors – From Point Contact to Single Electron
The first solid state electron device was the metal-semiconductor rectifier discovered by Ferdinand Braun in 1874 even before the discovery of the electron! He found that mercury metal contacts on copper or iron sulphide gave non-linear currentvoltage characteristics. In 1904 J C Bose obtained a U.S patent for point contact rectifiers on Galena (PbS). He found that the direction of rectificatio...
متن کاملSingle Electron Devices Based on Nanocrystalline Silicon
nano-crystalline Si dots of dimensions of 8nm have been incorporated into a variety of Coulomb blockade and floating gate memory devices. Structures include vertical transistor, planar electrode, nanoscale channel junction and 2-gate trench structure. Ballistic transport, Coulomb oscillation and memory effects are clearly demonstrated
متن کاملTop-gated silicon nanowire transistors in a single fabrication step.
Top-gated silicon nanowire transistors are fabricated by preparing all terminals (source, drain, and gate) on top of the nanowire in a single step via dose-modulated e-beam lithography. This outperforms other time-consuming approaches requiring alignment of multiple patterns, where alignment tolerances impose a limit on device scaling. We use as gate dielectric the 10-15 nm SiO(2) shell natural...

متن کاملSingle electron charge sensitivity of liquid-gated carbon nanotube transistors.
Random telegraph signals corresponding to activated charge traps were observed with liquid-gated CNT FETs. The high signal-to-noise ratio that we observe demonstrates that single electron charge sensing is possible with CNT FETs in liquids at room temperature. We have characterized the gate-voltage dependence of the random telegraph signals and compared to theoretical predictions. The gate-volt...
