The single channel junction field-effect transistor (JFET) is probably the simplest transistor available. As shown in the schematics below (Figure 6.13 in your text) for the n-channel JFET (left) and the p-channel JFET (right), these devices are simply an area of doped silicon with two diffusions of the opposite doping. Please be aware that the schematics presented are for illustrative purposes...

Recent developments towards future polymer electronics are aimed at different applications as organic displays, complementary circuits, and all-polymer integrated circuits [1-3]. Basic devices are organic field-effect transistors (OFET, cross section in Figs.2 and 3) with an active layer made from an organic material. Until now the achieved performance of OFET's is not sufficient for envisaged ...

the performance of nanoscale field effect diodes as a function of the spacer length between two gates is investigated. our numerical results show that the ion/ioff ratio which is a significant parameter in digital application can be varied from 101 to 104 for s-fed as the spacer length between two gates increases whereas this ratio is approximately constant for m-fed. the high-frequency perform...

We propose a spin-field-effect transistor based on spin-orbit coupling of both the Rashba and the Dresselhaus types. Different from earlier proposals, spin transport through our device is tolerant against spin-independent scattering processes. Hence the requirement of strictly ballistic transport can be relaxed. This follows from a unique interplay between the Dresselhaus and the Rashba couplin...

There are two types of field-effect transistors, the Junction Field-Effect Transistor (JFET) and the “Metal-Oxide Semiconductor” Field-Effect Transistor (MOSFET), or Insulated-Gate Field-Effect Transistor (IGFET). The principles on which these devices operate (current controlled by an electric field) are very similar — the primary difference being in the methods by which the control element is ...
