When charge-trap SONOS cells are used flash memory, the tunneling program/erase condition to minimize the generation of interface traps was investigated. SONOSFET NVSM cells were fabricated using 0.35$\mu\textrm{m}$ standard memory cell embedded logic process including the ONO cell process. based on retrograde twin-well, single-poly, single metal CMOS process. The thickness of ONO triple-dielectric for memory cell is tunnel oxide of 24${\AA}$, nitride of 74 ${\AA}$, blocking oxide of 25 ${\AA}$, respectively. The program mode(Vg: 7,8,9 V, Vs/Vd: -3 V, Vb: floating) and the erase mode(Vg: -4,-5,-6 V, Vs/Vd: floating, Vb: 3V) by modified Fowler-Nordheim(MFN) tunneling were used. The proposed programming condition for the flash memory of SONOSFET NVSM cells showed less degradation($\Delta$Vth, S, Gm) characteristics than channel MFN tunneling operation. Also the program inhibit conditions of unselected cell for separated source lines NOR-tyupe flash memory application were investigated. we demonstrated that the program disturb phenomenon did not occur at source/drain voltage of 1 V∼4 V and gate voltage of 0 V∼4.

Thin-film transistors (TFTs) that can be prepared at low temperatures have attracted much attention due to the great potential for flexible electronics. One of the mainstreams in this field is the use of organic semiconductors such as pentacene. But device performance of the organic TFTs is still limited by low field effect mobility or rapidly degraded after exposing to air in many cases. Another approach is amorphous oxide semiconductors. Amorphous oxide semiconductors (AOSs) have exactly attracted considerable attention because AOSs were fabricated at room temperature and used lots of application such as flexible display, electronic paper, large solar cells. Among the various AOSs, a-IGZO was considerable material because it has high mobility and uniform surface and good transparent. The high mobility is attributed to the result of the overlap of spherical s-orbital of the heavy pest-transition metal cations. This study is demonstrated the effect of thickness channel layer from 30nm to 200nm. when the thickness was increased, turn on voltage and subthreshold swing were decreased. a-IGZO TFTs have used a shadow mask to deposit channel and source/drain(S/D). a-IGZO were deposited on SiO2 wafer by rf magnetron sputtering. using power is 150W, working pressure is 3m Torr, and an O2/Ar(2/28 SCCM) atmosphere at room temperature. The electrodes were formed with Electron-beam evaporated Ti(30nm) and Au(70nm) structure. Finally, Al(150nm) as a gate metal was evaporated. TFT devices were heat treated in a furnace at $250^{\circ}C$ in nitrogen atmosphere for an hour. The electrical properties of the TFTs were measured using a probe-station to measure I-V characteristic. TFT whose thickness was 150nm exhibits a good subthreshold swing(S) of 0.72 V/decade and high on-off ratio of 1E+08. Field effect mobility, saturation effect mobility, and threshold voltage were evaluated 7.2, 5.8, 8V respectively.

In this study, the electrical characteristic of asymmetric high voltage MOSFET (AHVMOSFET) for display IC was investigated. Measurement data are taken over range of temperature (300K-400K) and various extended drain length, and gate oxide thickness ($175{\AA}$, $350{\AA}$). In high temperature condition, drain current decreased over 30% and max transconductance deceased over 40%, and specific on-resistance increased over 30% in comparison with room temperature.

Tunneling barrier engineered charge trap flash (TBE-CTF) memory capacitor were fabricated using the tunneling barrier engineering technique. Variable oxide thickness (VARIOT) barrier and CRESTED barrier consisting of thin $SiO_2$ and $Si_3N_4$ dielectrics layers were used as engineered tunneling barrier. The charge trapping characteristic with different metal gates are also investigated. A larger memory window was achieved from the TBE-CTF memory with high workfunction metal gate.

The drain current of the SB MOSFET was analytically modeled by an equation composed of thermionic emission and tunneling with consideration of the image force lowering. The depletion region electron concentration was used to model the channel electron concentration for the tunneling current. The Schottky barrier width is dependent on the channel electron concentration. The drain current is changed by the gate oxide thickness and Schottky barrier height, but it is hardly changed by the doping concentration. For a GaN SB MOSFET with ITO source and drain electrodes, the calculated threshold voltage was 3.5 V which was similar to the measured value of 3.75 V and the calculated drain current was 1.2 times higher than the measured.

본 연구에서는 비대칭 이중게이트 MOSFET의 상하단 게이트 산화막 두께에 대한 드레인 유도 장벽 감소 현상에 대하여 분석하고자한다. 드레인 유도 장벽 감소 현상은 단채널 MOSFET에서 드레인전압에 의하여 소스측 전위장벽이 낮아지는 효과를 정량화하여 표현한다. 소스 측 전위장벽이 낮아지면 결국 문턱전압에 영향을 미치므로 드레인전압에 따른 문턱전압의 변화를 관찰할 것이다. 비대칭 이중게이트 MOSFET는 상단과 하단의 게이트 산화막 두께를 다르게 제작할 수 있는 특징이 있다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 상단과 하단의 게이트 산화막 두께변화에 따른 드레인 유도 장벽 감소 현상을 포아송방정식의 해석학적 전위분포를 이용하여 분석하였다. 결과적으로 드레인 유도 장벽 감소 현상은 상하단 게이트 산화막 두께에 따라 큰 변화를 나타냈다. 또한 도핑농도에 따라 드레인유도장벽감소 현상이 큰 영향을 받고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

The ambipolar behavior of tunneling field-effect transistors (TFETs) has been investigated quantitatively by introducing a novel parameter: ambipolarity factor (${\nu}$). It has been found that the malfunction of TFET can result from the ambipolar state which is not on- or off- state. Therefore, the effect of ambipolar behavior on the device performance should be parameterized quantitatively, and this has been successfully evaluated as a function of device structure, gate oxide thickness, supply voltage, drain doping concentration and body doping concentration by using ${\nu}$.
