Dielectric layers are of major importance in crystalline silicon solar cells processing, especially as antireflection coatings and for surface passivation purposes. In this paper we investigate the fixed charge densities (Q(fix)) and the effective lifetime ...
This thesis investigates the link between the plasma deposition conditions and microcrystalline silicon (μc-Si:H) material quality for thin-film silicon photovoltaic applications. The role of interfaces and the μc-Si:H material quality on the device perfor ...
Resonators for time and frequency reference applications are essential elements found in most electronic devices surrounding us. The continuous minimization and ubiquitous distribution of such electronic devices and circuits demands for resonators of small ...
Silicon technology has advanced through the past four decades at exponential rate both in performance and productivity. Along with the miniaturization, the power demand grew also exponentially. New technologies are studied in order to develop switches that ...
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- ...
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 ...
Ferroelectric copolymers of polyvinylidene fluoride and trifluoroethylene are attractive gate materials because of a rather high remanent polarization, low dielectric permittivity, and easy integration on semiconductors due to the low processing temperatur ...
Low-temperature (≤200 °C) epitaxial growth yields precise thickness, doping, and thermal-budget control, which enables advanced-design semiconductor devices. In this paper, we use plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition to grow homo-epitaxial layers and ...
A 3D vertically stacked silicon nanowire (SiNW) field effect transistor featuring a high density array of fully depleted channels gated by a backgate and one or two symmetrical platinum side-gates through a liquid has been electrically characterized for th ...
