Abstract Graphene devices for radio frequency (RF) applications are of great interest due to their excellent carrier mobility and saturation velocity. However, the insufficient current saturation in graphene field effect transistors (FETs) is a barrier preventing enhancements of the maximum oscillation frequency and voltage gain, both of which should be improved for RF transistors. Achieving a high output resistance is therefore a crucial step for graphene to be utilized in RF applications. In the present study, we report high output resistances and voltage gains in graphene-on-silicon (GoS) FETs. This is achieved by utilizing bare silicon as a supporting substrate without an insulating layer under the graphene. The GoSFETs exhibit a maximum output resistance of 2.5 MΩ∙μm, maximum intrinsic voltage gain of 28 dB, and maximum voltage gain of 9 dB. This method opens a new route to overcome the limitations of conventional graphene-on-insulator (GoI) FETs and subsequently brings graphene electronics closer to practical usage.

Electronic devices based on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) show potential for circuit miniaturization due to their superior electrical characteristics and reduced dimensionality. The CNT field effect transistors (CNFETs) offer breakthrough in miniaturization of various electronic circuits. Investigation of ballistic transport governing the operation of CNFETs is essential for understanding the device's functional behavior. This investigation is focused on a study of current–voltage characteristics of device behavior in hard saturation region. The investigation utilizes a set of current–voltage characteristics obtained on typical devices. This work is an extension of our earlier work describing application of our approach to Si -MOSFET behavior in the saturation region.

Commercial Technology

The fabrication of ion sensitive field effect transistors (ISFET) and microelectrode arrays for use as chemical sensors using a commercial CMOS fabrication process is described. The commercial technology is readily available through the Canadian Microelectronics Corporation; however, several of the recommended design rules must be ignored in preparing chemical sensors using this process. The ISFET devices show near theoretical response to K+ in aqueous solution (55 mV slope) when coated with a K+ sensitive membrane. An extended gate ion sensitive device is presented which offers advantages in encapsulation of ISFET sensors. The source-drain current of both devices show a linear response to log [Formula: see text] in contrast to ISFETs previously reported that have high internal lead resistances. Al and poly-Si microelectrode arrays are fabricated commercially and then Pt is electrodeposited on the microelectrodes. The resulting arrays show good cyclic voltammetric response to Fe(CN)64− and Ru(NH3)63+ and are relatively durable.

ABSTRACTThe fabrication and characterization of AlGaN/GaN metal-oxide-semiconductor heterostructure field-effect transistors (MOSHFETs) with the δ-doped barrier are reported. The incorporation of the SiO2 insulated-gate and the δ-doped barrier into HFET structures reduces the gate leakage and improves the 2D channel carrier mobility. The device has a high drain-current-driving and gate-control capabilities as well as a very high gate-drain breakdown voltage of 200 V, a cutoff frequency of 15 GHz and a maximum frequency of oscillation of 34 GHz for a gate length of 1 μm. These characteristics indicate a great potential of this structure for high-power-microwave applications.
