In this work, ZnO thin films were deposited on glass substrates using spin coating method. Different annealing temperature from 400 to 550°C significantly distresses the nature of electrical and optical properties of ZnO thin films have been investigated. The effect of annealing temperature on optical and electrical properties of nanostuctured ZnO thin films deposited by spin coating method has been studied. The optical properties were characterized by ultraviolet visible (UV-VIS-NIR) spectrophotometer. The electrical properties were analyzed using I-V measurement (CEP 2000). Gold (Au) was used as a metal contact using electron beam thermal evaporator (ULVAC). The optical transmittance spectrums showed the average transmittance of ZnO thin film with different annealing temperature higher than 90% in visible wavelength region. The optical band properties of the nanostructured ZnO thin films were analyzed by UV Vis and Tauc method was accepted to estimate the optical gap and absorption coefficient. The resistivity of the film decreased as the annealing temperature increased from 400 to 550oC. The highest conductivity values of ZnO thin film was obtained at 500°C with value 0.000197 Scm-1. Moreover, the higher porosity was found at 400oC with value 57.5%. The higher porosity of ZnO thin film can be expected the high sensitivity for gas sensor due to the material has a comparatively large surface area.

Nanocrystalline Pt particles synthesized by solvothermal technique assisted with methylamine were investigated. The effect of different amounts of methylamine on the formation of Pt nanocrystal were characterized and elaborated. Small and spherical - like particles were observed for Pt synthesized under the low amount (0.10 mL) of methylamine whilst, concave polyhedral Pt nanocrystal with high - index {411} facets were observed for Pt synthesized under high amount (0.20 mL) of methylamine. The synthesized concave Pt nanocrystal exhibit high absorption peak at 215 nm corresponding to colloidal Pt. The synthesized concave polyhedral structures could be used as a potential catalyst in fuel cells application.

A design and optimization of the magnetic particles embedded inside a flexible membrane and factors contributing to the membrane performance have been studied. In this work, Nickel (Ni) is used as magnetic particles and Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is used for membrane material which is considered a matrix component of the flexible membrane. Ni particles with various particle sizes, arrangement and spaces between Ni particles are simulated by using Comsol Multiphysics 4.2. As a result, the optimum design of magnetic particles embedded in membrane for large deflection is by having circular shape membrane with low density of tiny magnetic particles in planar distribution. A preliminary simulation result has been also compared with the theoretical calculation to validate the analysis.

Thin body Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) devices are promising technology for extending the device scalability as projected in ITRS, thanks to immunity to short channel effects. Further improvement can be achieved when the device incorporated with thin buried oxide (BOX) since it allows suppression of fringing electric fields through the BOX thus improving front-gate-to-channel controllability and reducing DIBL. Thin BOX is also suitable for emulation of double-gate (implementing back-gate biasing) schemes used for tuning device characteristics. Thus, in this paper, from the advantages of double gate transistor, we investigate by using ATLAS 2D-simulations the emulation of double gate transistor with bottom contact (underneath the substrate) and top contact (from the top through the silicon and BOX) for both digital and analog/RF figures of merit in ultra-thin body and thin buried oxide (UTBB) SOI MOSFETs. Improvement in performance simply can be achieved with such configurations.
薄体绝缘体硅(SOI)器件是一种很有前途的技术,可以扩展ITRS中预计的器件可扩展性,这要归功于其对短信道效应的免疫。当器件与薄埋氧化物(BOX)结合时,可以进一步改进,因为它可以通过BOX抑制边缘电场,从而提高前门到通道的可控性并降低DIBL。Thin BOX也适用于用于调谐器件特性的双栅(实现后门偏置)方案的仿真。因此,在本文中,从双栅晶体管的优点出发,我们通过ATLAS 2d仿真研究了具有下触点(衬底下方)和上触点(从顶部穿过硅和BOX)的双栅晶体管在超薄体和薄埋氧化物(UTBB) SOI mosfet中的数字和模拟/RF优点的仿真。这样的配置可以简单地提高性能。

This paper presents the material characterization of agricultural waste by determining its dielectric properties for microwave absorber application. Three proposed materials, which are empty fruit bunch, oil palm frond and rice husk were investigated for the frequency ranging from 10 GHz to 20 GHz. The methodology was developed using the combination of three techniques involving coaxial probe technique, material density measurement and dielectric mixture model. It is found that the material density and air-particle permittivity have the impact on the wave absorption of the material. The result shows that all three agricultural wastes are capable to absorb electromagnetic signal. The average dielectric constant for solid pulverized agricultural waste are 3.49, 4.06 and 3.31 for empty fruit bunch, oil palm frond and rice husk respectively. Furthermore, at of 15.0 GHz, the solid pulverized empty fruit bunch, oil palm frond and rice husk indicate the highest loss tangent with value of 0.2201, 0.2579 and 0.2218 respectively which contributed from the loss factor of the material complex permittivity.

Amorphous carbon thin films with thickness 39.6-990. 1nm on insulative glass substrates were deposited by bias-assisted pyrolysis-CVD using `green' renewable precursor palm oil. The effect of nitrogen concentrations used on electrical properties of amorphous carbon thin films was determined. The amorphous carbon thin films were characterized by current-voltage measurement, UV/VIS spectrophotometer, surface profiler, and atomic force microscopy. Most of thin films were formed linear region with difference respond of slopes. High slope of ohmic contact for sample 220 mL/min was obtained after nitrogen doping. The sample 220 mL/min showed the optimum slope and the highest current responding. The resistivity was decreased by nitrogen concentration used where samples 220 mL/min and 70 mL/min were the lowest and the highest resistivity, respectively. We found, doping with nitrogen were increased the conductivity and photo response and decreased the resistivity of a-C thin films as compared without use of nitrogen.

This paper presents an investigation on sputtered titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin film for application in the Extended-Gate Field Effect Transistor (EGFET) sensor application for pH detection. The TiO2 thin film was fabricated on conductive indium-tin oxide (ITO) covered glass by using RF Sputtering method. An EGFET proof-of-concept setup was constructed using a commercial FET as the transducer and the TiO2/ITO structure was used for the extended gate. The sensor measurement was taken using semiconductor device parametric analyzer, constant-current constant-voltage biasing interfacing circuit and data logger to obtain the sensitivity and the characteristics for output voltage with respect to time. TiO2 thin film on ITO glass as the sensing membrane was compared with a bare ITO glass substrate for the extended gate. The TiO2/ITO glass exhibited the sensitivity of 42.1 mV/pH and good linearity of 0.9997 in the sensing range pH4, pH7 and pH10 which was better than the bare ITO glass sensitivity of 31.3 mV/pH and the linearity of 0.9868.

The comparison in term of both electrical and structural properties of amorphous carbon (a-C) thin film and nitrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C:N) thin film deposited at 750 °C has been done. The deposition of those films by thermal chemical vapour deposition (TCVD) technique involved argon (Ar) gas, nitrogen gas (N2) and camphor oil as carrier gas, dopant and carbon source respectively. The electrical and structural characterizations were based on Advantest R6243 DC Voltage Current Source/Monitor and SemiPro Curve Software and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). There are significant changes in electrical properties and surface morphology for a-C and a-C:N thin films due to the arrangement of nitrogen atoms.

This paper presents the design and simulation results of a tunable multi-band Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) for mobile WiMAX (IEEE 802.16e) using 0.18μm CMOS process. The target frequency bands are considered to be (3.4~3.6) GHz and (5.2~5.9) GHz. A technique known as Active Post Distortion (APD) was used to improve the linearity and offers optimum noise figure for the system. It provides a third order intercept point of about -1.3 dBm and -5.2 dBm for lower and upper bands respectively. It provides a power gain of more than 12.9 dB, input reverse isolation and noise figure of below -10.3 dB and 3.3 dB respectively. Considering a power supply of 1 v it dissipates 9.12 mw.
