In this work, transient characteristics of NPT(Non Punch Through)-IGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) have been studied with different temperatures analytically. Power losses are caused by heat generated in MIT-IGBT for steady state and transient state conditions. We therefore have focused on the analysis of excess carrier concentration and excess charge injected into N-drift layer with different temperatures and have obtained anode voltage drop during turn-off with lifetime of 2.4[${\mu}$s].

This paper presents the accurate deembeding method for pad and parasitics of MOSFET device. rad effects are deembedded using THRU LINE, which is much simpler method without laborious fitting procedure compared with conventional OPEN and SHORT pad modeling. Parasitic resistance extraction uses the algebraic relation between increments of inversion layer charge and oxide capacitance. It is especially adequate for insulating gate junction device. Extracted parasitics are verified through comparing modeled and measured S parameters.

Displacement current $(I_{dis})$ and drain-to-source current $(I_{DS})$ are evaluated using the simultaneous measurements of source $(I_S)$ and drain $(I_D)$ currents during the application of a constant drain voltage and a triangular-wave gate voltage $(V_{GS})$ to top-contact pentacene thin-film transistors.

Label-free detection of biomolecular interactions was performed using BioFET(Biologically sensitive Field-Effect Transistor) and SPR(Surface Plasmon Resonance). Qualitative information on the immobilization of an anti-IgG and antibody-antigen interaction was gained using the SPR analysis system. The BioFET was used to explore the pI value of the protein and to monitor biomolecular interactions which caused an effective charge change at the gate surface resulting in a drain current change. The results show that the BioFET can be a useful monitoring tool for biomolecular interactions and is complimentary to the SPR system.

Transparent amorphous oxide semiconductors such as a In-Ga-Zn-O (a-IGZO) have advantages for large area electronic devices; e.g., uniform deposition at a large area, optical transparency, a smooth surface, and large electron mobility >10 cm2/Vs, which is more than an order of magnitude larger than that of hydrogen amorphous silicon (a-Si;H).1) Thin film transistors (TFTs) that employ amorphous oxide semiconductors such as ZnO, In-Ga-Zn-O, or Hf-In-Zn-O (HIZO) are currently subject of intensive study owing to their high potential for application in flat panel displays. The device fabrication process involves a series of thin film deposition and photolithographic patterning steps. In order to minimize contamination, the substrates usually undergo a cleaning procedure using deionized water, before and after the growth of thin films by sputtering methods. The devices structure were fabricated top-contact gate TFTs using the a-IGZO films on the plastic substrates. The channel width and length were 80 and 20 um, respectively. The source and drain electrode regions were defined by photolithography and wet etching process. The electrodes consisting of Ti(15 nm)/Al(120 nm)/Ti(15nm) trilayers were deposited by direct current sputtering. The 30 nm thickness active IGZO layer deposited by rf magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The deposition condition is as follows: a rf power 200 W, a pressure of 5 mtorr, 10% of oxygen [O2/(O2+Ar)=0.1], and room temperature. A 9-nm-thick Al2O3 layer was formed as a first, third gate insulator by ALD deposition. A 290-nm-thick SS6908 organic dielectrics formed as second gate insulator by spin-coating. The schematic structure of the IGZO TFT is top gate contact geometry device structure for typical TFTs fabricated in this study. Drain current (IDS) versus drain-source voltage (VDS) output characteristics curve of a IGZO TFTs fabricated using the 3-layer gate insulator on a plastic substrate and log(IDS)-gate voltage (VG) characteristics for typical IGZO TFTs. The TFTs device has a channel width (W) of $80{\mu}m$ and a channel length (L) of $20{\mu}m$. The IDS-VDS curves showed well-defined transistor characteristics with saturation effects at VG>-10 V and VDS>-20 V for the inkjet printing IGZO device. The carrier charge mobility was determined to be 15.18 cm^2 V-1s-1 with FET threshold voltage of -3 V and on/off current ratio 10^9.

This research proposes the use of a composition modulated (ZrO₂)_x(Al₂O₃)_1-x film as a charge trapping layer for charge trap flash memory; this is possible when the Zr (Al) atomic percent is controlled to form a variable bandgap as identified by the valence band offsets and electron energy loss spectrum measurements. Compared to memory devices with uniform compositional (ZrO₂)_0.1(Al₂O₃)_0.9 or a (ZrO₂)_0.92(Al₂O₃)_0.08 trapping layer, the memory device using the composition modulated (ZrO₂)_x(Al₂O₃)_1-x as the charge trapping layer exhibits a larger memory window (6.0 V) at the gate sweeping voltage of ±8 V, improved data retention, and significantly faster program/erase speed. Improvements of the memory characteristics are attributed to the special energy band alignments resulting from non-uniform distribution of elemental composition. These results indicate that the composition modulated (ZrO₂)_x(Al₂O₃)_1-x film is a promising candidate for future nonvolatile memory device applications.

This paper have presented the breakdown voltage for double gate(DG) MOSFET. The analytical solution of Poisson's equation and Fulop's breakdown condition have been used to analyze for breakdown voltage. The double gate(DG) MOSFET as the device to be able to use until nano scale has the adventage to reduce the short channel effects. But we need the study for the breakdown voltage of DGMOSFET since the decrease of the breakdown voltage is unavoidable. To approximate with experimental values, we have used the Gaussian function as charge distribution for Poisson's equation, and the change of breakdown voltage has been observed for device geometry. Since this potential model has been verified in the previous papers, we have used this model to analyze the breakdown voltage. As a result to observe the breakdown voltage, the smaller channel length and the higher doping concentration become, the smaller the breakdown voltage becomes. Also we have observed the change od the breakdown voltage for gate oxide thickness and channel thickness.

In this study, we propose newly designed feedback field-effect transistors that utilize the positive feedback of charge carriers in single-gated silicon channels to achieve steep switching behaviors. The band diagram, I-V characterisitcs, subthreshold swing, and on/off current ratio are analyzed using a commercial device simulator. To demonstrate the changing characteristics of hysteresis, one of the important features of the feedback field effect transistor, we simulated changing the gate insulating material and the gate metal electrode. The fluctuation in the characteristics changed the $V_{TH}$ of the hysteresis and showed a decrease in width of the hysteresis.

The subthreshold characteristics has been analyzed to investigate the effect of two gate in Double Gate MOSFET using impact factor based on scaling theory. The charge distribution of Gaussian function validated in previous researches has been used to obtain potential distribution in Poisson equation. The potential distribution was used to investigate the short channel effects such as threshold voltage roll-off, subthreshold swings and drain induced barrier lowering by varying impact factor for scaling factor. The impact factor of 0.1~1.0 for channel length and 1.0~2.0 for channel thickness are used to fit structural feature of DGMOSFET. The simulation result showed that the subthreshold swings are mostly effected by impact factor but are nearly constant for scaling factors. And threshold voltage roll-off and drain induced barrier lowering are also effected by both impact factor and scaling factor.

4H-SiC has attracted attention for high-power and high-temperature metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) for industrial and automotive applications. The gate oxide in the 4H-SiC MOS system is important for switching operations. Above $1000^{\circ}C$, thermal oxidation initiates $SiO_2$ layer formation on SiC; this is one advantage of 4H-SiC compared with other wide band-gap materials. However, if post-deposition annealing is not applied, thermally grown $SiO_2$ on 4H-SiC is limited by high oxide charges due to carbon clusters at the $SiC/SiO_2$ interface and near-interface states in $SiO_2$; this can be resolved via low-temperature deposition. In this study, low-temperature $SiO_2$ deposition on a Si substrate was optimized for $SiO_2/4H-SiC$ MOS capacitor fabrication; oxide formation proceeded without the need for post-deposition annealing. The $SiO_2/4H-SiC$ MOS capacitor samples demonstrated stable capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics, low voltage hysteresis, and a high breakdown field. Optimization of the treatment process is expected to further decrease the effective oxide charge density.
