A Comprehensive Study of Charge-Carrier Mobility in Double Lateral-Gate Silicon Junctionless Transistors

We give in depth overview of charge-carrier mobility in p-type silicon double lateral-gate junctionless transistors (DLGJLT) through a mix of computer simulations and experimental results. The devices were built on low-doped silicon-on-insulator substrates using atomic force microscope nanolithography. Because the design uses air-gap side gates instead of a gate-oxide layer or junction, it allows electrical current to flow through a lightly doped silicon channel. This setup reduces impurity scattering and protects transport quality from interface damage. We used three-dimensional TCAD Sentaurus simulation tool to model the device's electrical behavior and confirm our experimental data for transconductance and drain conductance. We attempt to give a comprehensive view on the charge transition within the device.

Two-Dimensional Material Based Photodetector for Near Infrared Detection

Implementing new materials as alternative to silicon for application in photonic devices has been the center of attention in the scientific community. Two-Dimensional (2D) materials have shown a great capacity to be next alternative to remedy this impediment. Graphene due to its unique properties such as high mobility and optical transparency, in addition to flexibility, robustness and environmental stability is amongst 2D materials to shine in photonics and optoelectronics. Several graphene-based photodetectors with ability to integrate with various energy thermoelectric, electromagnetic and piezoelectric devices is reported. However, pristine graphene is not suitable to detect reasonable signals in infrared region, due to its bandgap limitation. In this work, a graphene based near infrared detection is demonstrated using graphene/metal intercalated graphene photodetector. The intercalated graphene was grown using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on Cu substrate and wet transfer of the layers to the Si/SiO2 substrate. A tapered aluminum microelectrode has been used for the electrical contacts to improve the detection of photogenerated carriers during the illumination. The infrared detection was demonstrated, responsivity and quantum efficiency was tested at room temperature and the mechanism of photogeneration was explained.
