The effect of the field oxidation process on the electrical characteristics of 6500V 4H-SiC JBS diodes is studied. The oxide thickness and field plate length have an effect on the reverse breakdown voltage of the SiC JBS diode. According the simulation results, we choose the optimal thickness of the oxide layer and field plate length of the SiC JBS diode. Two different field oxide deposition processes, which are plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) and low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD), are compared in our paper. When the reverse voltage is 6600V, the reverse leakage current of SiC JBS diodes with the field oxide layer obtained by LPCVD process is 0.7 μA, which is 60% lower than that of PECVD process. When the forward current is 25 A, the forward voltage of SiC JBS diodes with the field oxide layer obtained by LPCVD process is 3.75 V, which is 10% higher than that of PECVD process. There should be a trade-off between the forward and reverse characteristics in the actual high power and high temperature applications.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been explored in nanoelectronics to realize desirable device performances. Thus, carbon nanotube network field-effect transistors (CNTNFETs) have been developed directly by means of alcohol catalytic chemical vapor deposition (ACCVD) method using Co-Mo catalysts in this work. Various treated temperatures, growth time, and Co/Mo catalysts were employed to explore various surface morphologies of carbon nanotube networks (CNTNs) formed on the SiO2/n-type Si(100) stacked substrate. Experimental results show that most semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotube networks with 5–7 nm in diameter and low disorder-induced mode (D-band) were grown. A bipolar property of CNTNFETs synthesized by ACCVD and using HfO2as top-gate dielectric was demonstrated. Various electrical characteristics, including drain current versus drain voltage(Id-Vd), drain current versus gate voltage(Id-Vg), mobility, subthreshold slope (SS), and transconductance(Gm), were obtained.

ABSTRACTWe present a comparative study of the effects of low power reactive ion etching (RIE) on GaN and InN. This new, highly chemical, dry etching, using CF4 and Ar, has been developed for thin nitride films grown at low temperature in our laboratories. GaN films were grown by remote plasma enhanced-laser induced chemical vapor deposition and InN films were grown by radio-frequency RF reactive sputtering. Commercial GaN samples were also examined. Optical and electrical characteristics of the films are reported before and after removing 100 to 200 nm of the film surface by RIE. We have previously shown that the GaN films, although polycrystalline after growth, may be re-crystallized below the growth temperature. Removal of the surface oxide has been found to be imperative since a polycrystalline residue remains on the surface after re-crystallization.

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are layered two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors and have received significant attention for their potential application in field effect transistors (FETs), owing to their inherent characteristics. Among the various reported 2D TMD materials, monolayer (ML) molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is being considered as a promising channel material for the fabrication of future transistors with gate lengths as small as ∼1 nm. In this work, we present chemical vapor deposition-grown triangular ML MoS2 with a lateral size of ∼22 μm and surface coverage of ∼47%, as well as a PMMA-based wet transfer process for depositing the as-grown triangular ML MoS2 flakes onto a SiO2 (∼100 nm)/p++-Si substrate. Additionally, we demonstrate the fabrication of an n-type MoS2-based FET device and study its electrical characteristics as a function of the gate voltage. Our FET device shows an excellent on/off ratio of ∼106, an off-state leakage current of less than 10– 12 A, and a field effect mobility of ∼10.4 cm2/Vs at 300 K.

Au-catalyzed growth of nanocrystalline Si by pulse jet chemical vapor deposition has been investigated. Au thin film was first deposited on thermally oxidized Si(100), then CH3SiH3 pulse jets were irradiated onto the Au/SiO2/Si(100) surface. The irradiation of the CH3SiH3 jets at 1150 °C resulted in circular patterns with a diameter of ~40 µm on the sample surfaces. In the center of the circular patterns, agglomerations of Au were observed. It was found that the oxide layer was etched and that nanocrystalline Si with diameters ~500 nm was formed in the circular patterns. These results indicate that the nanocrystalline Si was grown by the VLS process in which Si atoms were supplied from the oxide layer, Si substrate, and CH3SiH3 molecules.
