Semi-solid casting(SSC) of magnesium alloys is increasingly being used to produce high quality components. This process is similar to the injection molding of plastics and is called thixomolding. Using this process, higher strength, thinner wall sections and tighter tolerances without porosity are obtained. The high strength and low weight characteristics of magnesium alloys render the high-precision fabrication of thin-walled components with large surface areas. They are widely used for the IT, auto and consumer electronics industries. However, warpage of the thin-walled sections degrade quality of the parts produced in the SCC process. To produce thin-walled magnesium alloy parts, the geometry of gating system on the quality of the finished products should be clearly studied. In this paper, to minimize warpage of the thin-walled sections, Taguchi method is applied to the optimal design of the gate geometry in the thixomolding process. Width, height, length and angle of the gating system are selected for the robust design parameters. Effectiveness of the robust design is verified through the CAE software.

Graphene field-effect transistors (GFET) is one of candidates for future high speed electronic devices since graphene has unique electronic properties such as high Fermi velocity (vf=10^6 m/s) and carrier mobility ($15,000cm^2/V{\cdot}s$) [1]. Although the contact property between graphene and metals is a crucial element to design high performance electronic devices, it has not been clearly identified. Therefore, we need to understand characteristics of graphene/metal contact in the GFET. Recently, it is theoretically known that graphene on metal can be doped by presence of interface dipole layer induced by charge transfer [2]. It notes that doping type of graphene under metal is determined by difference of work function between graphene and metal. In this study, we present the GFET fabricated by contact metals having high work function (Pt, Ni) for p-doping and low work function (Ta, Cr) for n-doping. The results show that asymmetric conductance depends on work function of metal because the interfacial dipole is locally formed between metal electrodes and graphene. It induces p-n-p or n-p-n junction in the channel of the GFET when gate bias is applied. In addition, we confirm that charge transfer regions are differently affected by gate electric field along gate length.

본 연구에서는 이중게이트 MOSFET의 전도중심에 따른 항복전압의 변화를 분석하였다. DGMOSFET에 대한 단채널효과 중 낮은 항복전압은 소자동작에 저해가 되고 있다. 항복전압분석을 위하여 포아송방정식의 분석학적 전위분포를 이용하였으며 이때 전하분포함수에 대하여 가우시안 함수를 사용함으로써 보다 실험값에 가깝게 해석하였다. 소자 파라미터인 채널길이, 채널두께, 게이트 산화막 두께 그리고 도핑농도 등에 대하여 전도중심의 변화에 대한 항복전압의 변화를 관찰하였다. 본 연구의 모델에 대한 타당성은 이미 기존에 발표된 논문에서 입증하였으며 본 연구에서는 이 모델을 이용하여 항복전압특성을 분석하였다. 분석결과 항복전압은 소자파라미터에 에 대한 전도중심의 변화에 크게 영향을 받는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다.

The electronic property of graphene was investigated by hydrazine treatment. Hydrazine ($N_2H_4$) highly increases electron concentrations and up-shifts Fermi level of graphene based on significant shift of Dirac point to the negative gate voltage. We have observed contact resistance and channel length dependent mobility of graphene in the back-gated device after hydrazine monohydrate treatment and continuously monitored electrical characteristics under Nitrogen or air exposure. The contact resistance increases with hydrazine-treated and subsequent Nitrogen-exposed devices and reduces down in successive Air-exposed device to the similar level of pristine one. The channel conductance curve as a function of gate voltage in hole conduction regime keeps analogous value and shape even after Nitrogen/Air exposure specially whereas, in electron conduction regime change rate of conductance along with the level of conductance with gate voltage are decreased. Hydrazine could be utilized as the highly effective donor without degradation of mobility but the stability issue to be solved for future application.

오늘날 표시장치는 경량, 고밀도, 고해상도 대면적화의 요구에 의해 TFT-LCD의 발전이 이루어졌다. TFT에는 반도체 재료로서, Poly-Si을 사용하는 Poly-Si TFT와 a-Si:H를 이용하는 a-Si;H TFT가 있는데 a-Si는 $350^{\circ}C$ 이하의 저온으로 제작이 가능하여 많이 사용되고 있다. 이러한 방향에 맞추어 bottom gate 구조의 a-Si TFT 실험을 진행하였다. P-type silicon substrate ($0.01{\sim}0.02{\Omega}-cm$)에 gate insulator 층인 SiNx (SiH4 : NH3 = 6:60)를 200nm 증착하였다. 그리고 그 위에 active layer 층인 a-Si (SiH4 : H2 : He =2.6 : 10 : 100)을 다른 RF power를 적용하여 100 nm 증착하였다. 그 위에 Source와 Drain 층은 Al 120 nm를 evaporator로 증착하였다. active layer, gate insulator 층은 ICP-CVD 장비를 이용하여 증착하였으며, 공정온도는 $300^{\circ}C$ 로 고정하였다. active layer층 증착시 RF power는 100W, 300W, 500W, 600W로 가변하였고, width/length는 100 um/8um로 고정하였다. 증착한 a-Si layer층을 Raman spectroscope, SEM 측정 하였으며, TFT 제작 후, VG-ID, VD-ID 측정을 통해 전기적 특성인 Threshold voltage, Subthreshold swing, Field effect mobility, ON/OFF current ratio를 비교해 보았다.

In this paper the characteristics of submicron gate GaAs MESFET's have been studied using a particle model which takes into account the hot-electron transport phenomena, i.e., the velocity overshoot. \ulcornervalley(<000> direction), L valley (<111>direction), X valley (<100>direction) as the GaAs conduction energy band and optical phonon, acoustic phonon, equivalent intervalley, nonequivalent intervalley scattering as the scattering models, have been considered in this simulation. And the GaAs material and the device simulation have been done by determination of the free flight time, scattering mechanism and scattering angle according to Monte-Carlo algorithm which makes use of a particle model. As a result of the particle simulation, firstly the electron distribution, the potential energy distribution and the situation of electron displacement in 0.6 \ulcorner gate length device have been obtained. Secondly, the cutoff frequency, obtained by this method, is k47GHz which is in good agreement with the calculated result of theory. And the current-voltage characteristics curve which takes account of the buffer layer effect has been obtained. Lastly it has been verified that parasitic current at the buffer layer can be analyzed using channel depth modulation.

The authors report on the fabrication of thin film transistors (TFTs) that use amorphous indium-gallium-zinc oxide (a-IGZO) channel and have the channel length (L) and width (W) patterned by dry etching. To prevent the plasma damage of active channel, a 100-nm-thckness $SiO_{x}$ by PECVD was adopted as an etch-stopper structure. IGZO TFT (W/L=10/50${\mu}m$) fabricated on glass exhibited the high performance mobility of $35.8\;cm^2/Vs$, a subthreshold gate voltage swing of $0.59V/dec$, and $I_{on/off}$ of $4.9{\times}10^6$. In addition, 4.1” transparent QCIF active-matrix organic light-emitting diode display were successfully fabricated, which was driven by a-IGZO TFTs.

본 논문에서는 electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) N₂O-플라즈마 산화막을 게이트 산화막으로 사용한 다결정 실리콘 박막 트랜지스터 (TFT)의 성능과 단채널 특성에 대하여 연구하였다. ECR NE₂O-플라즈마 게이트 산화막을 사용한 소자는 열산화막을 이용한 경우에 비해 우수한 성능과 억제된 단채널 효과를 나타낸다. 얇은 ECR N2O-플라즈마 산화막을 사용하여 n채널 TFT의 경우 3 ㎛, p채널 TFT의 경우 1㎛ 게이트 길이까지 문턱 전압 감소가 없는 소자를 얻었다. 이러한 특성 향상은 부드러운 계면, passivation 효과, 그리고 계면과 박막 내부에 존재하는 강한 Si ≡ N 결합 등에 기인한다.

We studied a electrical properties in GaAs/AlGaAs/InGaAs pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistors(PHEMT s) recessed by electron cyclotron resonance(ECR) plasma and wet etching. Using the $NH_4OH$ solution, a nonvolatile AlF$_3$layer formed on AlGaAs surface after selective gate recess is effectively eliminated. Also, we controlled threshold voltage($V_th$) using $H_3PO_4$ etchant. We have fabricated a device with 540 mS/mm maximum transconductance and -0.2 V threshold voltage by using $NH_4OH$ and $H_3PO_4$dip after ECR gate recessing. In a 2-finger GaAs PHEMT with a gate length of 0.2$\mu m$ and width of 100 $\mu m$, a current gain of 15 dB at 10 GHz and a maximum cutoff frequency of 58.9 GHz have been obtained from the measurement of current gain as a function of frequency at 12mA $I_{dss}$ and 2 V souce-drain voltage.
