Flatté","doi":"10.1109/DRC.2010.5551850","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/DRC.2010.5551850","url":null,"abstract":"Spintronics, using spin transport physics to manipulate information encoded in spin polarization, requires the ability to scalably manipulate electron spins, which is most easily achieved without magnetic materials or applied magnetic fields. Coherent spin rotation in the spin-orbit fields of a quantum well can yield efficient spin manipulation that depends only on the path traversed by a packet of electronic spin, and not on the speed with which the path is traversed. For a configuration with no applied magnetic field, where an electron spin is driven around three straight legs, with the first and last parallel, and the intermediate leg perpendicular to them and half their length, transport around the path will cause a robust, electrically controllable spin rotation. The angle of the spin rotation depends on the lengths of those legs. However, it is also possible to switch between integer π rotations of the electron spin (about a fixed axis in the plane of the quantum well) in a specific device with a fixed path by adjusting a vertical electric field applied to the quantum well. This spin rotation is described by a generalized Berry's phase and is not a dynamical effect, so it is invariant with respect to the current, source-drain voltage, travel time, and temperature (within a parabolic band approximation). The simplest realization would be a device with a narrow GaAs channel between undoped AlGaAs barriers with spin-selective injection and detection. For a ten nanometer thick GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well the long legs of the device would ideally be on the order of 10–100 nm in length, and transport should be in the drift-diffusion regime.","PeriodicalId":396875,"journal":{"name":"68th Device Research Conference","volume":"91 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122045482","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}

Over the past few decades, quartz crystals have provided highly accurate frequency references and demonstrated a continuing and sustainable presence with improved performance. On the other hand, Micro-Electro-Mechanical (MEM) resonators are micro-meter scale mechanical devices fabricated on silicon wafers with CMOS compatible processes and materials. The research on MEM resonators started in the 60's when a vibrating metal beam was proposed as the gate of a MOS transistor [1]. Pioneering work on the use of MEM resonators for frequency reference applications has been initiated in the early 90's at University of California at Berkeley and later blossomed at University of Michigan [2]. Subsequently, growing interest in wireless applications has generated tremendous technological progress in the field of radio frequency micro-electro-mechanical systems (RF MEMS) and transformed the MEM resonator technology based on IC-compatible micromachining processes and materials such as semiconductors, polysilicon or metals in a strong competitor position to the quartz crystal. Today, majority of the MEM resonators exploit the principles of capacitive excitation and detection via deep sub-micron air-gaps. However, MEM resonators with capacitively transduced signals are passive devices that show limited scaling potential in terms of impedance and signal-to-noise ratio. Inspired by the resonant gate transistor [1], vibrating or resonant body transistors (VBT or RBT) have been proposed for the first time in 2007–2008 [3–4], by embedding a field effect transistor in the body of vibrating beams, Fig. 1 with lateral gates coupled via narrow air-gaps. The resonant body transistor is an active resonator with intrinsic gain mechanisms, Fig. 2: the output of RBT is the drain current of the transistor and not the capacitive current. They have the unique advantage of enabling combined modulation of charge and piezoresistance (or mobility), which are effective at very small scale and controllable by the device design. The device small signal equivalent circuit is a hybrid between a resonator (RLC resonant circuit) and a transistor (current sources), Fig. 2a. The gain mechanisms are mirrored in the current sources depending on the transistor transconductance, which is voltage-tuneable (Fig. 3) and reaches its maximum at the resonance frequency (Fig. 2b). Absolute gain in resonant transistors is demonstrated in Fig. 4. In Fig. 5a bulk mode, piezoresistive gain resonant transistors based on multiple coupled beams shows the highest quality factor in RBTs reported to date (Q∼105) and a Q x f > 2 1012, comparable with quartz. Recently, a high frequency (>10GHz) version of the RBT, with internal dielectric transduction, has been reported in [5] showing a record Q x f higher than 1013.

Until recently, many believed that Lg could not be scaled in SWCNT field-effect transistors (CNTFETs) without incurring severe short channel effects (SCEs). However, using an improved device geometry, it has now been shown that proper Lg scaling can be achieved with actual enhancement in performance [1].

Although all three of these effects have been demonstrated experimentally to some degree, elements (1) and (3) are still well below the required performance to yield a competitive device. Here we describe a new approach to gate-controlled electronic transport in a two-dimensional electron gas, which relies on gate control of the spin-orbit interaction to control the direction and focusing of “electron beams” which propagate along specific crystal axes. A major advantage of this approach is that the electron beams exist even when the propagating electrons are not spin-polarized when injected. Thus no spin-selective injection or detection is required for this device, nor any magnetic materials or applied magnetic field only gate-control of the spin-orbit interaction.","PeriodicalId":396875,"journal":{"name":"68th Device Research Conference","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130341013","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}

The main reason is its large field-effect mobility (∼1 cm2/Vs) which results from the relatively large overlap of the delocalized molecular orbitals in the (001) lattice plane of the pentacene thin-film phase [1–4]. But pentacene molecules are easily oxidized at the 6 and 13 positions, and since the oxidation changes the electronic structure of the molecules, the mobility of pentacene TFTs degrades rapidly during air exposure [5,6]. Yamamoto et al. have recently synthesized a six-ring fused heteroarene, dinaphtho-[2,3-b:2′,3′-f]thieno[3,2-b]thiophene (DNTT), which has a crystal structure and thin-film morphology similar to those of pentacene, but is less susceptible to oxidation [7]. As a result of the favorable crystal structure and morphology, the mobility in DNTT is similar to that in pentacene, while the greater oxidation resistance affords better air stability of DNTT transistors compared with pentacene devices. Here we report on the static and dynamic performance and on the stability of DNTT TFTs on flexible polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) substrates.","PeriodicalId":396875,"journal":{"name":"68th Device Research Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132312052","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}
