Abstract
We fabricated Si nano-wire MOSFET by using the conventional photolithography with a $1.5{\mu}m$ resolution. Si nano-wire was fabricated by using reactive ion etching (RIE), anisotropic wet etching and thermal oxidation on a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate, and its width is 30 nm. Logarithmic circuit consisting of a NMOSFET and Si nano-wire MOSFET has been constructed for application to high-sensitivity image sensor. Its sensitivity was 1.12 mV/lux. The output voltage swing was 1.386 V.
