In this paper, we analyzed lateral migration (LM) mechanism of V-NAND occurring during retention operation depending on scaling of geometric parameters using TCAD simulation. Modeling for LM was performed and the behavior of time-constant (τ) parameter used for modeling was analyzed. In addition, we analyzed retention characteristics according to the states of neighbor word line (WLNei.). Comparing the extracted τ for different patterns, checker-board pattern (C/P) has the smallest τ, followed by NPN and solid pattern (S/P).

Spins in gate-defined silicon quantum dots are at the forefront of solid-state qubit research. We characterize top-gated devices fabricated from Si/SiGe heterostructures, demonstrating the formation of stable double and triple quantum dots with proximal charge-sensing dots. We also demonstrate fabrication of linear dot arrays with overlapping gate technology, thereby significantly increasing the density of control electrodes relative to our single-gate-layer devices.

Four-level random-telegraph-noise (RTN) characteristics of a gate-all-around (GAA) poly-Si junctionless (JL) nanowire (NW) transistor induced by two discrete traps are studied in this work. By carefully analyzing the RTN, depths of the two traps in the gate oxide can be identified separately. Consistent information is obtained by assessing the probability of transitions between different levels.

In this study, we propose new single-electron circuits mimicking the behavior of a fish shoal for aiming to design the single-electron information-processing circuit to which the information processing method of multi-agent systems is applied. We here use single-electron oscillator circuits as main components. The outputs from the two-dimensional arrayed single-electron oscillators shows fish-swimming-like behavior, we confirmed by computer simulation. As a next step, we designed an additional circuit that can express how fishes swim while avoiding collisions. This function is a very important factor to mimic the behavior. Then, we confirmed its operation.

We use fast gate-voltage pulses and multiplexed RF-reflectometry charge sensing to coherently manipulate and read out multiple singlet-triplet spin qubits, within a 2D array of 12 gate-defined quantum dots in GaAs. By measuring the qubits’ responses to precise timing changes of control pulses generated at room temperature, we characterize in situ the synchronization of control pulses with sub-ns resolution. These techniques are useful for calibrating the effective delay in cryogenic transmission lines for silicon quantum processors.

In this work, we have confirmed that dependent reset switching phenomenon of SiNx/SiO2 RRAM is dependent on stop voltage (VSTOP) in both DC and pulse operation. In addition, it was confirmed that improved gradual resistance change can be obtained by adjusting the amplitude of the applied reset pulse. By process simulation and empirical modeling of resistance change of the device, it is confirmed that the voltage distribution can be controlled only in the reset operation, resulting in more linear and gradual resistance change phenomenon even though same reset pulse is used.

Unique nanoscale material and device properties provide opportunities to achieve improved performance and efficiency, and to enable new functionalities. The focus of nanoelectronics research has shifted from low-power switches for Boolean logic to emerging materials and devices for novel computing paradigms. This paper will discuss new directions of energy-efficient nanoelectronics based on a brief review of the new research funded by the Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC).

In this work, impacts of remote Coulomb scattering on hole mobility in Si p-MOSFETs devices at cryogenic temperatures are investigated. The physical models including phonon, surface roughness (SR) and remote Coulomb scatterings (RCS) are verified by reproducing fairly well the experimental results for temperature ranging from 300 to 30K, which are reliably employed to predict the hole mobility down to liquid helium temperatures (4.2K). Simulation results reveal that as temperature decreases, the RCS due to Si/SiO2 interfacial trap charges plays an important role in determining hole mobility. Dependence of hole mobility on interfacial trap density is further explored at 4.2K.

This paper provided a photosensitive performance evaluation of UTBB MOSFET with different structures. The UTBB MOSFET can achieve photosensitive function by integrating a doping well or photodiode under the BOX. With doping well under the BOX, the UTBB MOSFET is more sensitive to light. On the other hand, the saturation exposure time of UTBB with photodiode is longer.

In this study, we suggest an improvement method for high ON/OFF ratio and steep subthreshold swing (SS) which are suitable for gate-all-around (GAA) SiGe tunnel field-effect Transistor (TFET). Through technology-computer-aided-design (TCAD) simulation, the effect of Ge condensation on the device performance is examined. Furthermore, SiGe nanowire (NW) channel with high Ge ratio (over 70%) is successfully formed and the advantage of gradually-distributed Ge throughout the SiGe NW is also investigated.
