R.S. Liu, C.C. You, M.S. Tsai, S.F. Hu, K. Lee, J. Lu
The purpose of this research is to explore the properties of a copper seed layer grown by electroless plating on TiN. We have developed a displacement layer made of amorphous silicon (a-Si) and copper contact displacement process to improve the island structure of copper activated layer which can then be grown directly on the surface of TiN. Furthermore, this research proposes glyoxylic acid as a ...... hiện toàn bộ

Transport simulation of a nanoscale silicon rod field-effect transistorProceedings of the 2nd IEEE Conference on Nanotechnology - - Trang 401-404
C. Dwyer, R. Taylor, L. Vicci
We have simulated the behavior of a rod shaped nanoscale ring-gated field-effect transistor (O-FET) using the PISCES-IIb semiconductor drift-diffusion solver. The results from these simulations are used by a custom SPICE kernel to simulate several simple logic gates. The usefulness of this kind of transistor is examined within the context of a self-assembling fabrication technique that we outline....... hiện toàn bộ

Electronic transport and noise in nanoelectronic ballistic N/sup +/-i-N/sup +/ diodesProceedings of the 2nd IEEE Conference on Nanotechnology - - Trang 235-238
G. Gomila, I.R. Cantalapiedra, T. Gonzalez, L. Reggiani
We present a fully analytical theory for the modeling of the electronic transport and noise properties of ballistic n/sup +/-i-n/sup +/ nanodiodes. The theory includes in a general way the effects of the Pauli exclusion principle and of the long range coulomb interaction. By means of the theory we explore the variety of behaviors exhibited by the current-voltage and the current noise properties fo...... hiện toàn bộ

Assembly of electrospun nanofibers into crossbarsProceedings of the 2nd IEEE Conference on Nanotechnology - - Trang 283-286
E. Zussman, A. Theron, A.L. Yarin
We report an approach for the hierarchical assembly of nanofibers into crossbar nanostructures. The polymer nanofibers are created through electrospinning process with diameters ranging in 10-80 nm and lengths of up to centimeters. By controlling the electrostatic field and the polymer rheology of the nanofibers, they can be assembled into parallel periodic arrays.

Thermal longevity of nano-multilayer magnetic mediaProceedings of the 2nd IEEE Conference on Nanotechnology - - Trang 71-74
E. Della Torre, L.H. Bennett
A common concern about the use of particles a few nanometers in size is their stability. This paper addresses a technique for estimating the longevity on the basis of measurements that can be made in a reasonable time. Using the recently developed Preisach-Arrhenius model, the decay rate can be quantified using the chemical potential. Measurements in Co/Pt multilayer media have shown that at room ...... hiện toàn bộ

The characteristics of a novel nano-scale silicon-on-insulator (SOI) device featuring silicide Schottky source/drain and field-induced S/D extensions induced by a sub-gate were investigated. The new device exhibits unique and high-performance bi-channel operation capability. In this work, particular attention was paid to the effects of subgate bias on the device operation. It is shown that the app...... hiện toàn bộ

Calculating magnetic susceptibility over multiple length scalesProceedings of the 2nd IEEE Conference on Nanotechnology - - Trang 499-502
A.W. Harter, G. Mohler, R.L. Moore, J.W. Schultz
DC power and radio frequency technology design can benefit from theories which predict magnetic permeability for a composite of nano-microscale magnetic particles in a magnetically neutral host. In this paper, composite permeability is calculated by connecting the microscale physics of the particles to the effective properties of the composite. At the microscale, numerical predictions are performe...... hiện toàn bộ

We analyze electron transport and magnetic response of a semiconductor double-wire system in the case when the wires are connected to leads in series, with tunnel coupling between them. Explicit analytical expressions for the lead-to-lead current and the average magnetic moment induced by an applied magnetic field are obtained. We show that at low temperature the magnetic response of such a system...... hiện toàn bộ
