Based on quantum-chemical calculations by the density functional theory (DFT) method, four possible mechanisms of the influence of ammonia vapors on the conductivity of silicon nanostructures, in particular, porous silicon (PS), were examined. The first mechanism involves the emergence of donor states in the interaction of NH3 molecules with pb-centers (surface Si atoms with dangling bonds). The change in conductivity by the second and third mechanisms can occur in p-type silicon structures. The second mechanism involves the protonation of an ammonia molecule with the subsequent passivation of subsurface impurity boron atoms by NH4 ions. The third mechanism combines the first two. At the first stage, it involves the interaction of NH3 molecules with passivated B-pb-center pairs. After protonation of the NH3 molecule, the boron impurity atom is already passivated by the NH4 ion, and the paramagnetic state of the pb-center is restored. At the second stage, the formation of donor states occurs during the interaction of NH3 molecules with already paramagnetic pb-centers. The processes according to the fourth mechanism can occur in n-type silicon structures. It provides for the restoration of donor properties of surface phosphorus atoms passivated by two hydrogen atoms. Such a restoration occurs after protonation of the NH3 molecule, when the proton (the ion of the surface hydrogen atom) is separated from the phosphorus atom. The last three models involve the protonation of NH3 molecules with the necessary participation of water molecules and surface OHgroups, the important role of which has been demonstrated in most experimental studies.

The sensitivity and performance of an integrated pyroelectric infrared detector depend not only on the material characteristics of a sensor element, but also on the thermal performance of the complete structure of detector design, including associated electronics. Thus, we have derived the thermal transfer function by solving the one-dimensional thermal diffusion equation for a single element n -layer structure, from which the performance of the detector structure of any number of layers can be obtained, predicted and optimized. Various single sensor configurations on the flexible substrate, polyimide, and pyroelectric and thermal parameters of modified lead strontium titanate (PST) film are utilized to predict the current re-sponsivity of an integrated detector system. The results obtained are compared with silicon as a substrate and found to be attractive for the development of a flexible thin-film based detector system

The main purpose of this paper is to determine the impact of germanium percentage within the base of a SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) in order to analyze the effect of the device self-heating. We use the COMSOL Multiphysics commercial software. The model links the semiconductor module to the HTS (Heat Transfer in Solids) module. This allows to simulate the temperature distribution across the SiGe HBT device for germanium levels ranging from x 10 %, 20 % to x 30 %. We first determine the static gain () of the SiGe HBT by varying the percentages of germanium. In addition, we analyze the heat distribution on the component surface for the three considered levels of germanium in order to record the maximum temperature Tmax in the device. Indeed, for x 10 %, the maximum temperature is Tmax 377 K and is close to the base-collector junction. When the germanium fraction in the SiGe alloy is increased (x 20 %), the maximum temperature of self-heating decreases (Tmax 366 K), while for x 30 % the temperature of self-heating decreases more (Tmax 354 K) and it spreads over the entire component. This phenomenon degrades seriously the electrical performances of the HBT.
