چکیده

On a single ZnO nanowire (NW), we fabricated an inverter-type device comprising a Schottky diode (SD) and field-effect transistor (FET), aiming at 1-dimensional (1D) electronic circuits with low power consumption. The SD and adjacent FET worked respectively as the load and driver, so that voltage signals could be easily extracted as the output. In addition, NW FET with a transparent conducting oxide as top gate turned out to be very photosensitive, although ZnO NW SD was blind to visible light. Based on this, we could achieve an array of photo-inverter cells on one NW. Our non-classical inverter is regarded as quite practical for both logic and photo-sensing due to its performance as well as simple device configuration.

Gate Modulation of Graphene-ZnO Nanowire Schottky Diode

Graphene-semiconductor interface is important for the applications in electronic and optoelectronic devices. Here we report the modulation of the electric transport properties of graphene/ZnO nanowire Schottky diode by gate voltage (Vg). The ideality factor of the graphene/ZnO nanowire Schottky diode is ~1.7, and the Schottky barrier height is ~0.28 eV without external Vg. The Schottky barrier ...

Single nanowire-based UV photodetectors for fast switching

Relatively long (30 µm) high quality ZnO nanowires (NWs) were grown by the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) technique. Schottky diodes of single NW were fabricated by putting single ZnO NW across Au and Pt electrodes. A device with ohmic contacts at both the sides was also fabricated for comparison. The current-voltage (I-V) measurements for the Schottky diode show clear rectifying behavior and no reve...

ZnO nanobelt/nanowire Schottky diodes formed by dielectrophoresis alignment across au electrodes.

Rectifying diodes of single nanobelt/nanowire-based devices have been fabricated by aligning single ZnO nanobelts/nanowires across paired Au electrodes using dielectrophoresis. A current of 0.5 microA at 1.5 V forward bias has been received, and the diode can bear an applied voltage of up to 10 V. The ideality factor of the diode is approximately 3, and the on-to-off current ratio is as high as...

TITLE: A Full-Wave Bridge Rectifier Based on Amorphous Silicon Schottky Diodes for Integration with Inductively Coupled Links on Plastic

ABSTRACT BODY: As large area electronic (LAE) systems incorporate increased functionality, it is desirable to transmit signals between adjacent plastic electronic sheets through near-field wireless coupling based on inductors and capacitors. Eliminating wired contacts can enable increased system scaling and reduced assembly complexity, but it can also be energy efficient due to the minimal wire...
