Polysilicon capacitors with pyrogenic oxide and TEOX oxide as insulators were fabricated to develop capacitors which can be applied to analog CMOS IC, and the characteristics of the capacitors were compared with each other. The morphology of bottom polysilicon in pyrogenic oxide capacitor is degraded due to the generaged protuberances of the polysilicon grain during oxidataion. The polysilican capacitor with pyrogenic oxide of 57 nm thickness showed that the effective potential barrier height of 0.45 eV is much less than that of MOS capacitor (3.2 eV)when the top electrode is biased with a positive volgate. The morphology of the polysilicon capacitor with TEOS oxide, however, was not degraded during oxide deposition by LPCVD. The polysilicon capacitor with TEOS oxide of 54 nm thickness showed the effective potential barrier height of 1.28 eV when the top electrode is biased with a negative voltage. Therefore, it is concluded that the polysilicon capacitor with TEOS oxide is more applicable to analog CMOS IC than the pyrogenic oxide polysilicon capacitor.

We have investigated the effect of the device structure on the performance of polycrystalline ZnO TFT and amorphous AZTO TFT with top gate and bottom gate structure. While the mobility of both TFTs showed relatively similar value in a top and bottom gate structure, bias stability was quite different depending on the device structure. Top gate TFT showed much less Vth shift under positive bias stress compared to that of bottom gate TFT. We attributed this different behavior to the defects formation on the gate insulator induced by energetic bombardment during the active layer deposition in a bottom gate TFT. We suggest the top gate oxide TFT would show more stable behavior under the Vgs bias.

This paper has presented the change of subthreshold swings for gate oxide thickness of asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET, and solved Poisson equation to obtain the analytical solution of potential distribution. The Gaussian function as doping distribution is used to approch experimental results. The symmetric DGMOSFET is three terminal device. Meanwhile the asymmetric DGMOSFET is four terminal device and can separately determine the bias voltage and oxide thickness for top and bottom gates. As a result to observe the subthreshold swings for the change of top and bottom gate oxide thickness, we know the subthreshold swings are greatly changed for gate oxide thickness. Especially we know the subthreshold swings are increasing with the increase of top and bottom gate oxide thickness, and top gate oxide thickness greatly influences subthreshold swings.

In the fabrication of inverted top-emitting organic light emitting diodes (ITOLEDs), the sputtering process is needed for deposition of transparent conducting oxide (TCO) as top anode. Energetic particle bombardment, however, changes the physical properties of underlying layers. In this study, we examined plasma process effects on tungsten oxide ($WO_3$) hole injection layer (HIL). From our results, we suggest the theoretical mechanism to explain the correlation between the physical property changes caused by plasma process on $WO_3$ HIL and degradation of device performances.

We fabricate and characterize top gate Graphene transistor using aluminum oxide as a gate insulator by atomic layer deposition (ALD). It is found that due to absence of functional group and dangling bonds, ALD of metal oxide is difficult on Graphene. Here we used 4-mercaptopheneol as a functionalization layer on Graphene to facilitate uniform oxide coverage. Contact angle measurement and Atomic force microscopy were used to confirm uniform oxide coverage on Graphene. Raman spectroscopy revealed that functionalization with 4-mercaptopheneol does not induce any defect peak on Graphene. Our device shows mobility values of 4,000 $cm^2/Vs$ at room temperature which also suggest top gate stack does not significantly increase scattering. The noncovalent functionalization method is non-destructive and can be used to grow ultra-thin dielectric for future Graphene applications.

This paper has analyzed the change of threshold voltage for oxide structure of symmetric and asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. The asymmetric DGMOSFET can be fabricated with different top and bottom gate oxide thickness, while the symmetric DGMOSFET has the same top and bottom gate oxide thickness. Therefore optimum threshold voltage is considered for top and bottom gate oxide thickness of asymmetric DGMOSFET, compared with the threshold voltage of symmetric DGMOSFET. To obtain the threshold voltage, the analytical potential distribution is derived from Possion's equation, and Gaussian distribution function is used as doping profile. We investigate for bottom gate voltage, channel length and thickness, and doping concentration how top and bottom gate oxide thickness influences on threshold voltage using this threshold voltage model. As a result, threshold voltage is greatly changed for oxide thickness, and we know the changing trend greatly differs with bottom gate voltage, channel length and thickness, and doping concentration.

The MONOS capacitor are fabricated to investigate the carrier trapping due to Fowler-Nordheim tunneling injection. The carrier trapping in scaled multi-dielectric(ONO) depends on the nitride and Op oxide thickness under Fowler_Nordheim tunneling injection. Carriers captured at nitride film could not escape from nitride to gate, but be captured at top oxide and nitride interface traps because of barrier height of top oxide. Therefore, it is expected that the MONOS memory devices using multi dielectric films enhance memory effect and have a long memory retention characteristic.

We investigated the influence of the aspect ratio (H/R) of the oxide layer on the reactor vessel heating in three-layer configuration. Based on the analogy between heat and mass transfers, we performed mass transfer experiments to achieve high Rayleigh numbers ranging from $6.70{\times}10^{10}$ to $7.84{\times}10^{12}$. Two-dimensional (2-D) semi-circular apparatuses having the internal heat source were used whose surfaces of top, bottom and side simulate the interfaces of the oxide layer with the light metal layer, the heavy metal layer, and the reactor vessel, respectively. Multi-cell flow pattern was identified when the H/R was reduced to 0.47 or less, which promoted the downward heat transfer from the oxide layer and possibly mitigated the focusing effect at the upper metallic layer. The top boundary condition greatly affected the natural convection of the oxide layer due to the presence of secondary flows underneath the cold light metal layer.
