At present, the planar OSTs face great challenges in achieving low power consumption and short channel effect, while the vertical OSTs can simulate synaptic characteristics at low voltage owing to its short channel length and unique working principle. Here, we smoothly fabricated vertical structure transistors based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) gate dielectrics for the first time by solution method and achieved excellent electrical properties when the gate voltage was only −5 V. Subsequently, the conductivity and carrier transmission efficiency of the device were effectively improved by organic lithium salt-doped PVA gate dielectric, on the basis of which a neural morphological device based on vertical structure was constructed perfectly. By using the electric-double-layer (EDL) capacitance effect and electrochemical doping, the device can achieve low-voltage operation and typical synaptic functions successfully, including excitatory postsynaptic current (EPSC), paired pulse facilitation (PPF), long-term potentiation (LTP), and memory refresh. Moreover, the implemented PPF can be extended to simulate pain perception and sensitization. This work shows the great potential of PVA-gated OST based on vertical structure in neuromorphologic applications, facilitating the development of emerging neural morphological systems as well as future artificial neural networks.","PeriodicalId":13092,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices","volume":"72 3","pages":"1301-1307"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143521463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As the magnetic field strength adjusted at the operating voltage/current of 45 kV/0.7 A, the gyrotron is demonstrated to stably operate at the fundamental harmonic TE12 mode and the second harmonic TE24 mode, at the respective dual bands. The fundamental harmonic oscillation can achieve a wideband continuous frequency tuning range of 5.27 GHz around 160 GHz, with a maximum power of 7.42 kW, corresponding to a working efficiency of 23.5%, and the second harmonic operation can obtain a maximum power of 2.9 kW and an efficiency of 9.2%, with a continuous frequency tuning range of 1 GHz near 391 GHz.

Unlike the method of iterating the electron gun structure through particle simulations, for the primary beam optics design in the anode-cathode gap, this method mainly needs pure electrostatic simulations to achieve the target beam-edge potential profiles. Based on such an approach, the required electron gun structure, including the cathode, control electrode, and anode, can be quickly obtained. The subsequent particle simulations for handling higher order effects typically require minor geometry adjustments relative to the anode-cathode gap to complete the whole design. Following the proposed procedure, the results show that the target beam parameter with good trajectory laminarity would be obtained. The simulations on electron guns with three different configurations also reveal that any control electrode could achieve the same goal if it satisfies the target beam-edge potential profiles. Finally, the factors affecting the electron laminarity are discussed using one of the electron gun configurations. After that, a set of clear and complete primary beam optics design processes for the electron gun is summarized.","PeriodicalId":13092,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices","volume":"72 3","pages":"1404-1411"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143521466","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The use of metal oxide (MO) as an excellent semiconductor to achieve high-mobility TFTs comes with certain challenges, such as a severely negative threshold voltage (<inline-formula> <tex-math>${V} _{th}$ </tex-math></inline-formula>) and instability. These issues are attributed to defects and impurities within MO thin films, specifically oxygen vacancies and chemisorbed oxygens. Addressing these challenges is essential, prompting a study on improved fabrication strategies. In this work, we investigated annealing strategies to enhance the performance of indium tungsten oxide (IWO) TFTs. A two-step annealing approach was proposed to balance the concentration of oxygen vacancies and chemisorbed oxygens. This method effectively boosted the field-effect mobility (<inline-formula> <tex-math>$mu _{FE}$ </tex-math></inline-formula>) of IWO TFTs to 58 cm2/Vs, concurrently achieving a small negative <inline-formula> <tex-math>${V} _{th}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> of −3.5 V and a favorable subthreshold swing (SS) of 0.35 V/dec. The proposed mechanism was validated through technology computer-aided design (TCAD) device simulation and low-frequency noise (LFN) analysis. The law of annealing IWO TFTs was analyzed based on the results obtained from postannealing experiments conducted at variable temperatures. The entirety of the experimental findings and conclusions is anticipated to provide valuable insights for the fabrication of high-mobility IWO TFTs.","PeriodicalId":13092,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices","volume":"72 3","pages":"1167-1173"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143521355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To tackle this challenge, carbon preamorphization implantation (C PAI) was employed. This study systematically investigates the effects of C PAI on both the formation and thermal stability of CoSi2, taking into account distinct cobalt deposition methods, namely, physical vapor deposition (PVD) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Results demonstrate that the presence of carbon delays the nucleation temperature of CoSi2 approximately 50 °C and significantly enhances the morphology and thermal stability of CoSi2 for PVD Co. These observed effects can be explained by the segregation of carbon atoms at the grain boundaries and CoSi2/Si interface. However, the introduction of carbon has a detrimental effect for CVD Co. The variations in results are attributed to variations in the deposition mechanism. This insight provides valuable considerations for optimizing the thermal stability of CoSi2s in the context of future DRAM devices.","PeriodicalId":13092,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices","volume":"72 2","pages":"653-658"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143184256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
