We report on detailed room-temperature transport properties of a 17 nm thick double-gate silicon-on-insulator (DGSOI) transistor. We find that when the electron gas is transferred between the top and the bottom of the silicon-on-insulator (SOI) layer by changing the gate bias symmetry (i.e., applying the gate biases in a push–pull fashion), while keeping the carrier density constant the maximum...

Schottky diodes are fabricated on n-Aluminium Gallium Arsenide / Gallium Arsenide (n-AlGaAs/GaAs) high-electron-mobility-transistor (HEMT) structure due to availability of high electron mobility and capability of fast switching performance. The processing steps used in the fabrication are the conventional steps used in standard GaAs processing. The ohmic and Schottky contacts of Schottky diodes...

The vapor–liquid–solid growth of semiconductor nanowires led to the implementation of engineered electronic and optoelectronic one-dimensional nanostructures with outstanding promise for device applications. To realize this promise, detailed understanding and control over their growth, crystal structure, and transport properties and their combined impact on device performance is vital. Here, we...
