We have fabricated vertical-type organic transistors (static induction transistors; SITs) with built-in nano-triode arrays formed in parallel by a colloidal-lithography technique. Using this technique, we could fabricate a microstructure in a lateral direction within a large-scale organic device without relying on photolithography. The organic transistor showed low operating voltages, high current output, and large transconductance.

The organic field-effect transistors with step-edge structure were fabricated. Source and drain electrodes were obliquely deposited by vacuum evaporation. The step-edge of the gate electrode serve as a shadow mask, and the short channel is formed at the step-edge. The excellent device performances were obtained.

We demonstrate the high temperature-dependent electrical behavior at 2D multilayer MoS2 transistor. Our previous reports explain that the extracted field-effect mobility of good device was inversely proportional to the increase of temperature. Because scattering mechanism is dominated by phonon scattering at a well-designed MoS2 transistor, having, low Schottky barrier. However, mobility at an immature our $MoS_2$ transistor (${\mu}m$ < $10cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$) is proportional to the increase temperature. The existence of a big Schottky barrier at $MoS_2-Ti$ junction can reduce carrier transport and lead to lower transistor conductance. At high temperature (380K), the field-effect mobility of multilayer $MoS_2$ transistor increases from 8.93 to $16.9cm^2V^{-1}sec^{-1}$, which is 2 times higher than the value at room temperature. These results demonstrate that carrier transport at an immature $MoS_2$ with a high Schottky barrier is mainly affected by thermionic emission over the energy barrier at high temperature.

A 70-${\AA}$ nanowire field-effect transistor (FET) for sub-10-nm CMOS technology is designed and simulated in order to investigate the impact of an oxide trap on random telegraph noise (RTN) in the device. It is observed that the drain current fluctuation (${\Delta}I_D/I_D$) increases up to a maximum of 78 % due to the single electron trapping. In addition, the effect of various trap positions on the RTN in the nanowire FET is thoroughly analyzed at various drain and gate voltages. As the drain voltage increases, the peak point for the ${\Delta}I_D/I_D$ shifts toward the source side. The distortion in the electron carrier density and the conduction band energy when the trap is filled with an electron at various positions in the device supports these results.

터널링 전계효과 트랜지스터(tunneling field-effect transistor; TFET)로 적층된 3차원 적층형 집적회로(monolithic 3D integrated-circuit; M3DIC)에 대한 연구 결과를 소개한다. TFET는 MOSFET(metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor)와 달리 소스와 드레인이 비대칭 구조이므로 대칭구조인 MOSFET의 레이아웃과 다르게 설계된다. 비대칭 구조로 인해서 다양한 인버터 구조 및 레이아웃이 가능하고, 그 중에서 최소 금속선 레이어를 가지는 단순한 인버터 구조를 제안한다. 비대칭 구조의 TFET를 순차적으로 적층한 논리 게이트인 NAND 게이트, NOR 게이트 등의 M3DIC의 구조와 레이아웃을 제안된 인버터 구조를 바탕으로 제안한다. 소자와 회로 시뮬레이터를 이용해서 제안된 M3D 논리게이트의 전압전달특성 결과를 조사하고 각 논리 게이트의 동작을 검증한다. M3D 논리 게이트 별 셀 면적은 2차원 평면의 논리게이트에 비해서 약 50% 감소된다.

In this work, a tunneling field-effect transistor (TFET) based on heterojunctions of compound and Group IV semiconductors is introduced and simulated. TFETs based on either silicon or compound semiconductors have been intensively researched due to their merits of robustness against short channel effects (SCEs) and excellent subthreshold swing (SS) characteristics. However, silicon TFETs have the drawback of low on-current and compound ones are difficult to integrate with silicon CMOS circuits. In order to combine the high tunneling efficiency of narrow bandgap material TFETs and the high mobility of III-V TFETs, a Type-I heterojunction tunneling field-effect transistor (I-HTFET) adopting $Ge-Al_xGa_{1-x}As-Ge$ system has been optimized by simulation in terms of aluminum (Al) composition. To maximize device performance, we considered a nanowire structure, and it was shown that high performance (HP) logic technology can be achieved by the proposed device. The optimum Al composition turned out to be around 20% (x=0.2).

We fabricated a single crystal silicon thin film transistor for active matrix organic light emitting displays(AMOLEDs) using silicon on insulator wafer (SOI wafer). Poly crystal silicon thin film transistor(poly-Si TFT) Is actively researched and developed nowsdays for a pixel switching devices of AMOLEDs. However, poly-Si TFT has some disadvantages such as high off-state leakage currents and low field-effect mobility due to a trap of grain boundary in active channel. While single crystal silicon TFT has many advantages such as high field effect mobility, low off-state leakage currents, low power consumption because of the low threshold voltage and simultaneous integration of driving ICs on a substrate. In our experiment, we compared the property of poly-Si TFT with that of SOI TFT. Poly-Si TFT exhibited a field effect mobility of 34 $\textrm{cm}^2$/Vs, an off-state leakage current of about l${\times}$10$\^$-9/ A at the gate voltage of 10 V, a subthreshold slope of 0.5 V/dec and on/off ratio of 10$\^$-4/, a threshold voltage of 7.8 V. Otherwise, single crystal silicon TFT on SOI wafer exhibited a field effect mobility of 750 $\textrm{cm}^2$/Vs, an off-state leakage current of about 1${\times}$10$\^$-10/ A at the gate voltage of 10 V, a subthreshold slope of 0.59 V/dec and on/off ratio of 10$\^$7/, a threshold voltage of 6.75 V. So, we observed that the properties of single crystal silicon TFT using SOI wafer are better than those of Poly Si TFT. For the pixel driver in AMOLEDs, the best suitable pixel driver is single crystal silicon TFT using SOI wafer.

As biosensors are widely used in the medical field, flexible devices compatible with live animals have aroused great interest. Especially, significant research has been carried out to develop implantable or skin-attachable devices for real-time bio-signal sensing. From the device point of view, various biosensor types such as field-effect transistors (FETs) and multi-electrode arrays (MEAs) have been reported as diverse sensing strategies. In particular, the flexible FETs and MEAs allow semiconductor engineering to expand its application, which had been impossible with stiff devices and materials. This review summarizes the state-of-the-art research on flexible FET and MEA biosensors focusing on their materials, structures, sensing targets, and methods.

We report a polysilicon active area membrane field effect transistor (PSAFET) pressure sensor for low stress deflection of membrane. The PSAFET was produced in conventional FET semiconductor fabrication and backside wet etching. The PSAFET located at the front side measured pressure change using 300 nm thin-nitride membrane when a membrane was slightly strained by the small deflection of membrane shape from backside with any physical force. The PSAFET showed high sensitivity around threshold voltage, because threshold voltage variation was composed of fractional function form in sensitivity equation of current variation. When gate voltage was biased close to threshold voltage, a fractional function form had infinite value at $V_{tn}$, which increased the current variation of sensitivity. Threshold voltage effect was dominant right after the PSAFET was turned on. Narrow transistor channel established by small current flow was choked because electron could barely cross drain-source electrodes. When gate voltage was far from threshold voltage, threshold voltage effect converged to zero in fractional form of threshold voltage variations and drain current change was mostly determined by mobility changes. As the PSAFET fabrication was compatible with a polysilicon FET in CMOS fabrication, it could be adapted in low pressure sensor and bio molecular sensor.
