Graphene is a good candidate for the future nano-electronic materials because it has excellent conductivity, mobility, transparency, flexibility and others. Until now, most graphene researches are focused on the nano electronic device applications, however, biological application of graphene has been relatively less reported. We have fabricated a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) conjugated graphene field-effect transistor (FET) and measured the electrical transport characteristics. We have used graphene sheets grown on Ni substrates by chemical vapour deposition. The Raman spectra of graphene sheets indicate high quality and only a few number of layers. The synthesized graphene is transferred on top of the substrate with pre-patterned electrodes by the floating-and-scooping method [1]. Then we applied adhesive tapes on the surface of the graphene to define graphene flakes of a few micron sizes near the electrodes. The current-voltage characteristic of the graphene layer before stripping shows linear zero gate bias conductance and no gate operation. After stripping, the zero gate bias conductance of the device is reduced and clear gate operation is observed. The change of FET characteristics before and after stripping is due to the formation of a micron size graphene flake. After combined with 30 base pairs single-stranded poly(dT) DNA molecules, the conductance and gate operation of the graphene flake FETs become slightly smaller than that of the pristine ones. It is considered that DNA is to be stably binding to the graphene layer due to the ${\pi}-{\pi}$ stacking interaction between nucleic bases and the surface of graphene. And this binding can modulate the electrical transport properties of graphene FETs. We also calculate the field-effect mobility of pristine and DNA conjugated graphene FET devices.

We improved the performance of pentacene-based thin film transistors by changing the curing environment of poly(4-vinylphenol) (PVP) gate dielectrics, while keeping the dielectric constant the same. The field-effect mobility of the pentacene TFTs constructed using the vacuum cured PVP was higher than that of the device based on the Ar flow cured gate dielectric, possibly due to the higher crystalline perfection of the pentacene films. The present results demonstrated that the curing conditions used can markedly affect the surface energy of polymer gate dielectrics, thereby affecting the field-effect mobility of TFTs based on those dielectrics.

The effect of gate insulator surface treatment on electrical characteristics of bottom contact (BC) and suspended source/drain (SSD) organic thinfilm transistors (OTFTs) was studied. Triisopropylsilylethynyl pentacene was used as an active material and was printed by ink-jet printing method. In case of the BC OTFTs, threshold voltage was shifted from positive to near zero, and the fieldeffect mobility was increased when the gate insulator surface was treated with hexamethyldisilazane. However, in case of SSD OTFT, threshold voltage shift was not observed and the field-effect mobility was decreased.

InSb temperature dependent hall effect of multilayerd structures were investigated. According to variation of magnetic field measured hall coefficient, Hall mobility, carrier density and hall voltage. For the measurement of electrical properties of hall device, evaperated InSb thin film fabricated with series and parallel multilayers. We found that the XRD analysis of InSb thin film showed good properties at 200$^{\circ}C$, 60 minutes. Resistance of ohmic contact increased linearly due to increasing current. Some of device fabrication technique and analysis of Hall effect were discussed.

In this paper, we investigated the effect of solvent on electrical properties of triisopropylsilyl (TIPS) pentacene organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs). The TIPS pentacene was spin coated by using chlorobenzene, p-xylene, chloroform and toluene as solvent. Fabricated OTFT with chlorobenzene showed field-effect mobility of $0.01\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, on/off ratio $4.3{\times}10^3$ and threshold voltage of 5.5 V. In contrast, with chloroform the mobility was $5.8{\times}10^{-7}\;cm^2/Vs$, on/off ratio $1.1{\times}10^2$ and threshold voltage of 1.7 V.

In this report, the effect of substrate temperature on the electrical properties of ink-jet printed triisopropylsilyl (TIPS) pentacene organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) has been investigated. The electrical properties such as mobility and on/off ratio were decreased as the substrate was heated above room temperature. The field-effect mobility of decreased from $10^{-2}cm^2/Vs$ to $10^{-5}cm^2/Vs$ and the on/off ratio decreased from $10^6$ to $10^4$ when the substrate temperature was heated from room temperature to 60$^{\circ}C$.

Amorphous oxide-based thin-film transistors (TFTs) have drawn a lot of attention recently for the next-generation high-resolution display industry. The required field-effect mobility of oxide-based TFTs has been increasing rapidly to meet the demands of the high-resolution, large panel size and 3D displays in the market. In this regard, the current status and major trends in the high mobility oxide-based TFTs are briefly reviewed. The various approaches, including the use of semiconductor, dielectric, electrode materials and the corresponding device structures for realizing high mobility oxide-based TFT devices are discussed.

Recently, IoT researches using sensor data based on embedded networks in various fields including healthcare and sports have been continuously attempted. This study analyzes golf ball mobility to support IoT application in golf sports field. Generally, since the difference in density occurs due to the condition of the inner material and the abnormal state at the time of the outer skin joining during the manufacturing of the golf ball, the weight of each subset is equal for any two points with the same radius in the sphere cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, the deflected weight of the sphere has the undesirable effect of hitting the ball in a direction in which the weight of the ball is heavy. In this study, it is assumed that there is a unique center of gravity of the ball, and even if the golf ball cannot be manufactured perfectly, it wants to establish the basic principle to accurately recognize or mark the putting line based on the center of gravity. In addition, it is evaluated how the mobility of the golf ball with a deviation from the center of gravity of the golf ball affects the progress path (or movement direction) and the moving distance (or carry distance) after the golfer hits. The basic model of the mobility of the golf ball can help the golfer exercise model and the correlation analysis. The basic model of the mobility of the golf ball can help the golfer exercise model and the correlation analysis.

Silicon nanowires (Si NWs)-based top-gate field-effect transistors (FETs) are constructed by using Si NWs transferred onto flexible plastic substrates. Si NWs are obtained from the silicon wafers using photolithography and anisotropic etching process, and transferred onto flexible plastic substrates. To evaluate the electrical performance of the silicon nanowires, we examined the output and transfer characteristics of a top-gate field-effect transistor with a channel composed of a silicon nanowire selected from the nanowires on the plastic substrate. From these FETs, a field-effect mobility and transconductance are evaluated to be $47\;cm^2/Vs$ and 272 nS, respectively.

In this study, we report a novel encapsulation method for longevity of an organic thin-film transistor (OTFT) using pentaceneby means of an adhesive multiplayerincluded Al film. For encapsulation of OTFTs, the Al film adhered onto the OTFT in a dry nitrogen atmosphere using a proper adhesive. A lifetime, which was defined as the time necessary to reduce mobility to 2% of initial mobility value, was observed from the typical $I_{D-VD}$ characteristics of the field-effect transistor (FET). The initial field effect mobility ${\mu}$ was measured to be $2.0{\times}10^{-1}\;cm^2/Vs$. The characterization was maintained for long times in air. No substantial degeneration occurred. The performance and the stability are probably due to the encapsulation effect.
