This thesis advances the field of high-voltage thin film transistors (HVTFTs) and dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) by demonstrating a strategy for low-voltage addressing of an array of high voltage soft actuators suspended on a flexible substrate.Fi ...
Organic thin-film transistors (TFTs) have undergone tremendous progress in the past few years. Their great potential in terms of mechanical flexibility, light weight, low-cost and large-area fabrication makes them promising candidates for novel electronic ...
Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors, consisting of single-sheets of layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD), are attracting enormous interest from both fundamental science and technology. Monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), a typical example from ...

We demonstrate that doping the semiconductor zinc tin oxide (ZTO) with yttrium leads to a high-voltage thin film transistor (HVTFT) with enhanced switching performance. Adding 5% yttrium leads to an increase in the on-off ratio from 40 to 1000 at an operat ...
We propose, fabricate, and experimentally demonstrate a circuit based on graphene field-effect transistors (GFETs) showing enhanced negative differential resistance (NDR) characteristics at room temperature. The proposed graphene NDR (GNDR) circuit consist ...
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 ...
A 2.4 GHz low power polar transmitter is proposed in this paper. A dynamic biasing circuit, controlled by a digital envelope signal, is used as a direct digital-to-RF envelope converter. It effectively linearizes the input-output characteristic of the over ...
It is observed experimentally that high electron mobility transistor devices with short channel length processed from nitride AlInN/AlN/GaN heterostructures containing 2D electron gases (2DEGs) with densities beyond 2 x 10(13) cm(-2) exhibit temperatures u ...
Technology scaling improves the energy, performance, and area of the digital circuits. With further scaling into sub-45nm regime, we are moving toward very low supply (VDD) and threshold voltages (VT), smaller VDD/VT ratio, high leakage current, and large ...
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- ...
