The budget is about US$ 600 million for six years. Compared to some countries, this is not a big number. Our strategy is to focus on industrilization. 65% of the budget was for industrialization nanotechnology. Our National Program is an industrialization driven program. Stumbling blocks to commercializing nanotechnology and Taiwan strategic initiatives to industrializing nanotechnology will be described in this paper. The stumbling blocks will be analyzed in two different phases. The first one is from science to industry. The other one is from nanoproducts to users. Taiwan strategy initiatives including government commitment, positioning of different players and infrastructure built for nanotechnology will be discussed in this paper. To industrialize nanotechnology, linking nano novel properties to applications is essential. The first approach to be presented is novel material-driven approach, which is to derive application concepts from the unique properties of a novel material. Carbon nanocapsule and tetrapod-like zinc oxide will be used as examples to illustrate our experiences. The other approach is need-driven approach. To maintain competitiveness in some products, nanotechnology could be quite helpful. Several examples, including CNT-backlight unit (BLU) and nanoclay in PU synthetic leather will be described. Nanotechnology is a hot R& D area globally. Differentiation strategy is very important. Self-cleaning paint is cited as an example to be differentiated from others. Through nanotechnology development, we believe that our daily life will be improved dramatically.","PeriodicalId":220722,"journal":{"name":"2006 IEEE Conference on Emerging Technologies - Nanoelectronics","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129178904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By 2D MEDICI simulation, stacked-gate flash memories with high-κ IPDs clearly exhibited significant improvement in operation speed over those with conventional oxide/nitride/oxide IPD programmed with either channel Fowler-Nordheim (CFN) or channel hot electron (CHE) injection. Choosing HfO2as the IPD and using CFN programming scheme, the operating voltage can be reduced by more than 48% under a typical 10μs programming time. However, the effect of high-κ TDs was quite different when compared with high-κ IPDs. High-κ TDs were only beneficial for memories programmed with CHE injection instead of CFN tunneling. The operating voltage can be reduced by more than 27% under 10μs programming time by choosing HfO2as both the IPD and TD with CHE programming scheme. Due to the contrary improvement in programming schemes, high-κ IPDs and TDs were suitable for next-generation NAND- and NOR-type stacked-gate flash memories, respectively.","PeriodicalId":220722,"journal":{"name":"2006 IEEE Conference on Emerging Technologies - Nanoelectronics","volume":"108 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114580732","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Optical transmittance-reflectance measurements, temperature dependent conductivity data and the current density-voltage (J-V) characteristics of the heterostructure are analyzed to estimate device parameters, such as built-in potential, reverse saturation current density, intrinsic carrier concentration and donor concentration in the carbon side of the device for different P content in the target material for carbon. The estimated device parameters are seen to improve with the increase in P content in the target for up to 5% of P. But for 7% of P in the target, the device performance deteriorates. Using these device parameters, capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics of the device is simulated. The results are then compared with the experimentally obtained C-V characteristics. The detailed analyses suggests diffusion of P atoms from the film into the Si region during the film deposition by pulsed laser ablation and thus the formation of a P-I-N device rather than a simple P-N junction device. The width of the I region and diffusion co-efficient of P into the Si are estimated and the values are found to be in the acceptable range.","PeriodicalId":220722,"journal":{"name":"2006 IEEE Conference on Emerging Technologies - Nanoelectronics","volume":"9 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116818172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
