The usability and advantage of our program have been shown by estimating backscattering coefficient, ballistic ratio and channel resistance of Silicon and GaAs quasi-ballistic devices.

Traditionally Floating gate flash memory is the most commonly used flash technology where the charge is stored on the conducting floating gate. Floating gate memory is difficult to integrate in the logic process due to complex process integration and need 8-9 extra masks in the logic process to integrate flash technology. In this paper, we demonstrate Si3 N44 Charge Trap Flash (CTF) technology in 180nm CMOS fab. CTF is relatively easy to integrate and require few masks.

Recently, the successful exfoliation of monolayer chromium tri-iodide CrI3, having robust intrinsic magnetism, has motivated us to investigate its thermoelectric properties in ferromagnetic (FM) and anti-ferromagnetic (AFM) states. Using density functional theory in addition with Boltzmann transport theory, we have calculated the band-structure, density of states, electrical and thermal conductivities, Seebeck coefficient and power factor for monolayer CrI3 in FM and AFM states. We show that in both magnetic states, CrI3 has an electrical conductivity $(sigma /tau approx 10^{19}, Omega^{-1}m^{-1}s^{-1})$ comparable to graphene. For both magnetic states, no variation is observed in electrical and thermal conductivity for temperature less than 500 K. However, both conductivities is observed to increase significantly with further increase in temperature till 800 K. Interestingly, both conductivities in FM state are 10 times higher than AFM state, while the power factor for FM state is higher over AFM state, and hence indicates a good thermoelectric performance in FM state of CrI3 monolayer.","PeriodicalId":6590,"journal":{"name":"2018 4th IEEE International Conference on Emerging Electronics (ICEE)","volume":"17 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73155947","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}

At pO2 of 0.25, a maximum in the Ni3+/Ni2+ ratio (7.09) is obtained. At this ratio, the band alignment of NiOX with that of methyl-ammonium lead iodide (MAPI) is observed to be most suitable. There is no misalignment of the valence band edges while conduction band edges separated by about 1 eV.
