Wafer-scale transistor arrays were fabricated with semiconducting nanowires serve as active channel (for logic) or signal read-out route (for memory). It is demonstrated that the single-crystal nanowire transistor, due to its unique structural features, can be served for high on-off ratio logic switching with superior scalability and data storaging. Device physics study is presented, focusing on ambipolar channel conducting, subthreshold behavior, parasitic resistance, carrier mobility, low-barrier metal-semiconductor Schottky junctions, and performance figure-of-merit analysis. The feasibility of extending the bottom-up fabricated nanowire transistors into sub-10nm CMOS technology is evaluated. | | ISBN: | 0-9767985-2-2 |
