Performance improvement by device scaling has been the prevailing method in the semiconductor industry over the past four decades. However, current silicon transistor technology is approaching a fundamental limit where scaling does not improve device perfo ...
Semiconductor nanowires are an emerging class of materials with great potential for applications in future electronic devices. The small footprint and the large charge-carrier mobilities of nanowires make them potentially useful for applications with high- ...
Over the recent decades, the balance between increasing the complexity of computer chips and simultaneously reducing cost per bit has been accommodated by down-scaling. While extremely successful in the past, this approach now faces grave limitations leadi ...
Multi-gate devices e.g. gate-all-around (GAA) Si nanowires and FinFETs are promising can- didates for aggressive CMOS downscaling. Optimum subthreshold slope, immunity against short channel effect and optimized power consumption are the major benefits of s ...
The increase of components density in advanced microelectronics is practically dictated by the device size and the achievable pitch between the devices. Scaling down dimensions of devices and progress in the circuit design allowed following Moore's law dur ...
The down-scaling of conventional MOSFETs has led to an impending power crisis, in which static power consumption is becoming too high. In order to improve the energy-efficiency of electronic circuits, small swing switches are interesting candidates to repl ...
This thesis aims at the site-specific realization of self-assembled field-effect transistors (FETs) based on semiconducting Zinc oxide NWs and their application towards chemical and bio-sensing in liquid medium. At first, a solution based growth method for ...
Crossed-nanotube junctions, the basic constituents of carbon nanotube networks, are investigated by scanning photocurrent microscopy. The location of the predominant electrostatic potential drop, at the electrical contacts or at the junction, is found to b ...
Since the advent of CMOS technology, the semiconductor industry has been successful in achieving continuously improved performance. The feature size of the most important electronic device, the Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET), ha ...
In organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs), the conducting channel is located near the interface between the organic semiconductor and the dielectric; this interface is crucial for transistor performance. The goal of this thesis is to study the effect of thi ...
