This study investigated four different work function metal (WFM) stacks in the gate of fin field-effect transistors (FinFETs) on the same substrate. These devices not only successfully produced distinct levels of threshold voltages (|V\u0000t\u0000|) but also converted n- to p-type features merely by adding p-type WFM in the gate of the MOSFETs. All of the devices satisfied short-channel effects with shrinking channel length. The gate-to-body electric field induced drain leakage due to the nature of bulk FinFETs. However, the n- and p-type gate stacks presented different gate current leakage. For reliability, hot carrier injection (HCI) could have a higher reliability impact than the negative-bias temperature instability (NBTI) for p-MOSFET, although the stress voltage of HCI was roughly half that of the NBTI test. This multi-threshold voltage tuning allows designers to design CMOS and choose the trade-off between low power consumption and high performance on the same platform.","PeriodicalId":446,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Nanotechnology","volume":"2 ","pages":"72-77"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/iel7/8782713/9316416/09528922.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"3482478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, passive sensing, narrow detection range, large size, and high manufacturing cost curb their further development. Here, we present a miniaturized acceleration sensor (MAS) with rationally patterned electrodes, based on the single electrode triboelectric mechanism, featuring small size, high accuracy, large detection scale, and environmental friendliness. A stainless-steel ball, as the moving part of the MAS, experiences physical movement that is converted into an electrical signal. Equipped with rationally patterned electrodes, the MAS retains the smallest size and lowest weight compared with the currently reported self-powered acceleration sensors. Benefiting from the voltage-relationship-based direction detection mechanism, eight directions can be identified by one TENG module. Consequently, rotated 22.5° relatively, two TENG modules enable the MAS to detect 16 directions. Moreover, accelerations ranging from 0.1 m/s\u00002\u0000 to 50 m/s\u00002\u0000 can be identified according to the relationship of response time and accelerations in the horizontal direction. The relationship is obtained through the measurements of the sum of output voltages (\u0000<italic>VSOC\u0000) for the four bottom electrodes with varying accelerations. In addition, no distinct decrease of \u0000<italic>VSOC\u0000 is observed after continuously operating for 2000 circles, presenting excellent robustness. Hence, this cost-effective and rationally patterned MAS reveals great potential for human machine interaction, VR/AR (virtual/augmented reality), sports training, and smart city.","PeriodicalId":446,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Nanotechnology","volume":"2 ","pages":"78-85"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-08-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/OJNANO.2021.3104961","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"3482801","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 proposed graphene-based platform is flexible, comprising a programmable synaptic array which can be configured for different initial synaptic weights and plasticity functionalities and a spiking neuronal array, onto which various neural network structures can be mapped according to the application requirements and constraints. To demonstrate the validity of the synaptic weights training methodology and the suitability of the proposed SNN architecture for practical utilization, we consider character recognition and edge detection applications. In each case, the graphene-based platform is configured as per the application tailored SNN topology and initial state and SPICE simulated to evaluate its reaction to the applied input stimuli. For the first application, a 2-layer SNN is used to perform character recognition for 5 vowels. Our simulation indicates that the graphene-based SNN can achieve comparable recognition accuracy with the one delivered by a functionally equivalent Artificial Neural Network. Further, we reconfigure the architecture for a 3-layer SNN to perform edge detection on 2 grayscale images. SPICE simulation results indicate that the edge extraction results are close agreement with the one produced by classical edge detection operators. Our results suggest the feasibility and flexibility of the proposed approach for various application purposes. Moreover, the utilized graphene-based synapses and neurons operate at low supply voltage, consume low energy per spike, and exhibit small footprints, which are desired properties for largescale energy-efficient implementations.","PeriodicalId":446,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Nanotechnology","volume":"2 ","pages":"59-71"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/OJNANO.2021.3094761","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"3482962","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 characterized results show that the three groups of cells possess approximate radius value. Both BCI and PCa cells show larger SMC values than BPH cells. Only PCa cells possess lower Youngs modulus than BPH cells, the stiffness of which is approximate to that of BCI cells. Additionally, experiments have testified that inflammatory cytokine, (i.e. TNF-\u0000<inline-formula><tex-math>$alpha$</tex-math></inline-formula>\u0000) can induce the increase of cellular SMC values.

This feature enables them particularly be suitable as the micro/nanoscale solar energy-conversion units integrated in wireless power supply micro/nano-systems. However, solar energy harvest in these heterojunctions is hindered by inherent weak interlayer interaction at such ultrathin thickness. Herein, a novel integrated strategy by embedding metallic plasmonic pentamers optical nano-antenna array (ONAA) onto overlap region of black phosphorus-molybdenum disulfide (BP-MoS\u00002\u0000) p-n heterojunction is firstly exploited under both a near-infrared laser (λ = 830 nm) and standardized AM1.5G solar irradiation. Results show that profiting from plasmon-induced “hot” electrons and thermal field generating from gigantic near-field enhancement in 15 nm-ultrashort nanogap ONAAs and high intrinsic build-in field in atomically overlap region, this integrated configuration displays enhanced photovoltaic properties. Maximum short-circuits current (I\u0000sc\u0000 = 0.53 μA) and open circuit voltage (V\u0000oc\u0000 = 0.2 V) had been attained. Additional fill factor of 14% and double power conversion efficiencies amplification are measured via comparison of device without/with ONAAs. These findings strongly demonstrate this reliable enhancement strategy with integration of plasmonic physics into 2D heterojunctions for realizing energy harvesting unit in the wireless power supply micro/nano-systems.","PeriodicalId":446,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Nanotechnology","volume":"2 ","pages":"41-51"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2021-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/OJNANO.2021.3062495","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"3494272","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 etching interface roughness and defect were estimated by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In the case of using atomic layer defect-free NBE, the root-mean-square roughness of the Ge Fin sidewall surface is 1/3 times smaller than that using PE. Then, the electron mobility of Ge FinFET was improved by 1.65 times compared with that of a PE etched FinFET sample. For the subthreshold swing, the defect density of the interface between the Ge and gate dielectric film was improved by NBE. Ioff average currents of NBE and PE were around 18.1 and 57.6 nA/μm, respectively. As a result, NBE reduces the off-leakage current to 1/3 times less than PE. This corresponded to the differences in surface roughness and defect generation between NBE and PE.
