We present the design and simulation of a single-walled carbon nanotube(SWCNT)-based field-effect transistor (FET) using Silvaco TCAD. In this paper, theself-heating effect modeling of the CNT MOSFET structure is performed and comparedwith conventional MOSFET structure having same channel length. The numericalresults are presented to show the self-heating effect on the I...

A method for collapsing the transistor chain of CMOS gates to a single equivalent transistor is introduced. The width of the equivalent transistor is calculated taking into account the operating conditions of each transistor in the structure, resulting in very good agreement with SPICE simulations. Second order effects such as carrier velocity saturation in submicron devices, body effect and co...

A novel bipolar transistor structure, namely, SiGe base lateral PNM Schottky Collector Bipolar Transistor (SCBT) in Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) substrate is explored using two-dimensional (2-D) simulation. Based on a comparison with its equivalent PNP HBT, we demonstrate for the first time that the proposed SiGe base lateral PNM transistor exhibits a superior performance in terms of high current...

In this research, a high performance silicon nanowire field-effect transistor (transconductance as high as 34 µS and sensitivity as 84 nS/mV) is extensively studied and directly compared with planar passive microelectrode arrays for neural recording application. Electrical and electrochemical characteristics are carefully characterized in a very well-controlled manner. We especially focused on ...
