Background: This work describes the implementation of In0.53Ga0.47As/InP Surrounding Metal Gate Oxide Semiconductor Heterostructure Field Effect Transistor (SG MOSHFET) with gate underlap on both source and drain end to improve the DC and RF performance. Methods: A comprehensive and methodological investigation of DC and RF performance of III-V semiconductor are made for different underlap length varying from 5nm to 30nm on both sides of the device, which is used to mitigate the short channel issues to improve the device performance. Hydrodynamic model has been taken into consideration for the device simulation and it also includes Auger recombination and the Shockley–Read–Hall (SRH) model. Simulation is performed to analyze the various analog performance of device like drain current, surface potential, transconductance, threshold voltage, drain induced barrier lowering, off current, subthreshold slope, Ion/Ioff ratio, output conductance, intrinsic delay, energy-delay product, transconductance generation factor and radio frequency performance of device, like trans-frequency product and cut-off frequency. Results: From the simulation, it can be observed that an improved analog and RF performance is obtained at the optimum underlap length. Conclusion: This work delivers an idea for extended researchers to investigate different aspects of group III–V underlap MOSFETs.

With technology invading nanometer regime performance of the Metal-Oxide-semiconductor Field Effect Transistor is largely hampered by short channel effects. Most of the simulation tools available do not include short channel effects and quantum effects in the analysis which raises doubt on their authenticity. Although researchers have tried to provide an alternative in the form of tunnel field-effect transistors, junction-less transistors, etc. but they all suffer from their own set of problems. Therefore, Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor remains the backbone of the VLSI industry. This work is dedicated to the design and study of the novel tub-type Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor. For simulation Non-Equilibrium Green’s Function is used as the primary model of simulation. The device is analyzed under different physical variations like work function, permittivity, and interface trap charge. This work uses Silicon-Molybdenum Disulphide heterojunction and Silicon-Tungsten Disulphide heterojunction as channel material. Results for both the heterojunctions are compared. It was analyzed that Silicon-Molybdenum Disulphide heterojunction provides better linearity and Silicon-Tungsten Disulphide heterojunction provides better switching speed than conventional Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor.

The paper introduces an analytical model for gate all around (GAA) or Surrounding Gate Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (SG-MOSFET) inclusive of quantum mechanical effects. The classical oxide capacitance is replaced by the capacitance incorporating quantum effects by including the centroid parameter. The quantum variant of inversion charge distribution function, inversion layer capacitance, drain current, and transconductance expressions are modeled by employing this model. The established analytical model results agree with the simulated results, verifying these models' validity and providing theoretical supports for designing and applying these novel devices.

An organic ferroelectric capacitor, using polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) as the dielectric, was fabricated. By connecting the PVDF capacitor in series to the gate of a commercially purchased metal-oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), drain current (ID)–drain voltage (VD) characteristics and drain current (ID)–gate voltage (VG) characteristics were measured. In addition, the subthreshold slopes of the MOSFET were determined from the ID–VG curves. It was found that the subthreshold slope could be effectively reduced by 23% of its original value when the PVDF capacitor was added to the gate of the MOSFET.

We present an immunosensor for the rapid and sensitive detection of the p53 oncosuppressor protein and of its mutated form p53R175H, which are both valuable cancer biomarkers. The sensor is based on the accurate measurement of the source-drain current variation of a metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor, as due to the gate potential changing arising from charge release upon the selective capture of a biomarker by the partner immobilized on a sensing surface connected to the gate electrode. A suitable microelectronic system is implemented to combine high current resolution, which is needed to be competitive with standard immunoassays, with compact dimensions of the final sensor device.

A crack-free AlGaN/GaN heterostructure was grown on 4-inch Si (111) substrate with initial dot-like AlSiC precoverage layer. It is believed that introducing the AlSiC layer between AlN wetting layer and Si substrate is more effective in obtaining a compressively stressed film growth than conventional Al precoverage on Si surface. The metal semiconductor field effect transistor (MESFET), fabricated on the AlGaN/GaN heterostructure grown with the AlSiC layer, exhibited normally on characteristics, such as threshold voltage of −2.3 V, maximum drain current of 370 mA/mm, and transconductance of 124 mS/mm.
