We present a complete pixel based on a single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) fabricated in a backside-illuminated (BSI) 3D IC technology. The chip stack comprises an image sensing tier produced in a 65-nm image sensor technology and a data processing tier i ...
Transistors are the fundamental elements in Integrated Circuits (IC). The development of transistors significantly improves the circuit performance. Numerous technology innovations have been adopted to maintain the continuous scaling down of transistors. W ...
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 ...
In the last decade the power consumption of electronic devices has increased for both static and active components. Following the Dennard's scaling rule, as long as the transistor sizes are reduced then the supply voltage (VDD) can also be scaled in order ...
With technology scaling reaching the fundamental limits of Si-CMOS in the near future, the semiconductor industry is in quest for innovation from various disciplines of integrated circuit (IC) design. At a fundamental level, technology forms the main drive ...
Traditional metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor scaling has advanced successfully over 50 years providing significant increases in transistor count per chip and operating frequency, thus enabled the built of ever more performant and complex s ...
As we advance into the era of nanotechnology, semiconductor devices are scaled down to their physical limits, thereby opening up venues for new transistor channel materials based on nanowires and nanotubes. Transistors based on nanowires and nanotubes inhe ...
This thesis explores the electronic properties of one layered transition-metal dichalcogenide – single-layer MoS2, and demonstrates the first transistors and integrated circuits with characteristics that outperform graphene electronics in many aspects and ...
A single field effect transistor capacitor-less memory device, and method of operating the same, including a drain region, a source region, an intrinsic channel region between the drain region and the source region forming the single field effect transisto ...
A CMOS image sensor including a pixel including: a photodiode in series with a MOS transistor between a first reference potential and a sense node; a MOS transistor connecting the sense node to a second reference potential; and a third MOS transistor assem ...
