  • A capacitorless one transistor dynamic random access memory (1T-DRAM) on silicon-germanium-on-insulator substrate was investigated. SGOI technology can make high effective mobility because of lattice mismatch between the Si channel and the SiGe buffer layer. To evaluate memory characteristics of 1T-DRAM, the floating body effect is generated by impact ionization (II) and gate induced drain leakage (GIDL) current. Compared with use of impact ionization current, the use of GIDL current leads to low power consumption and larger sense margin.

  • We fabricated fully depleted (FD) SOI-based 1T-DRAM cells with planar channel or recessed channel and the electrical characteristics were investigated. In particular, the dependence of memory operating mode on the channel structure of 1T-DRAM cells was evaluated. As a result, the gate induced drain leakage current (GIDL) mode showed a better memory property for planar type 1T-DRAM. On the other hand, the impact ionization (II) mode is more effective for recessed type.

  • Phonon scattering and impact ionization models have been presented to analyze hot carrier transport in high energy region, using full band model and Fermi's golden rule. We have investigated temperature dependent properties for impact ionization process of Si using realistic energy band structures at 77K and look. The realistic full band model, obtained from the empirical pseudopotential method with local from factors, is used to calculate scattering rate. The accurate calculation of impact ionization rate requires the use of a wavevector- and frequency-dependent dielectric function ξ ( q,$\omega$). The empirical phonon scattering rate P$\sub$ph/, is given by deriving from linear function for P$\sub$ph/ versus D(E) since the phonon scattering rate is linearly depended on density of states D(E). Impact ionization rate p,, is calculated from the first principle's theory. and fitted by modified Keldysh formula having power of above 2.

  • 최근 반도체 칩의 트랜지스터 집적화 기술이 발달됨에 따라 dynamic random access memory(DRAM)의 memory cell 영역을 작게 만들어야 하는 문제가 제기되고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 대체 기술이 끊임없이 연구되고 있는 가운데 하나의 트랜지스터와 하나의 캐패시터로 구성된 기존의 DRAM에서 캐패시터가 없이 하나의 트랜지스터만으로 이루어진 1T-DRAM 소자의 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이는 기존 DRAM의 구조에 비해 캐패시터가 필요하지 않아 복잡한 공정이 줄어들어 소자 제작이 용이하며, 더 높은 집적도를 구현할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 일반적인 planar 타입의 1T-DRAM의 경우 소스 및 드레인과 기판과의 접합면에서 누설 전류가 큰 특징을 가지며 소자의 집적화에 따른 단 채널 효과가 발생하게 되는데, 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 유효 채널 길이를 늘려 단 채널 효과에 의한 영향을 감소시키고, 소스 및 드레인과 기판과의 접합면을 줄여 누설 전류를 줄일 수 있는 recessed 채널 타입의 1T-DRAM을 제작하였다. 1T-DRAM의 메모리 구동방법에는 여러 가지가 있는데 본 연구에서는 impact ionization (II)을 이용한 방법과 gate induced drain leakage (GIDL)을 이용한 방법을 사용하여 1T-DRAM의 채널구조에 따라 어떠한 구동방법이 더 적합한지 평가하였고, 그 결과 recessed 채널 1T-DRAM의 동작은 II 에 의한 측정 방법이 더 적합한 것으로 보여졌다.

  • Electrical gate and drain characteristics of double heterostructure InAlAs/InGaAs pseudomorphic HEMTs have been investigated under sub-bandgap photonic excitation ($hv). Drain $(V_{DS})-,{\;}gate($V_{DS})-$, and optical power($P_{opt}$)-dependent variation of the abnormal gate leakage current and associated physical mechanisms in the PHEMTs have been characterized. Peak gate voltage ($V_{GS,P}$) and the onset voltage for the impact ionization ($V_{GS.II}$) have been extracted and empirical model for their dependence on the $V_{DS}$ and $P_{opt} have been proposed. Anomalous gate and drain current, both under dark and under sub-bandgap photonic excitation, have been modeled as a parallel connection of high performance PHEMT with a poor satellite FET as a parasitic channel. Sub-bandgap photonic characterization, as a function of the optical power with $h\nu=0.799eV$, has been comparatively combined with those under dark condition for characterizing the bell-shaped negative humps in the gate current and subthreshold drain leakage under a large drain bias.

  • Probable human carcinogenic compounds nitrosamines, have been detected as by-product impurities in sartan pharmaceuticals in recent years which has drawn worries for medication safety. To provide a sensitive and effective method for the quality control of sartan pharmaceuticals, this study established a feasible gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) method for simultaneous determination of 13 nitrosamines. The target analytes were separated on a DB-WAX Ultra Inert column (30 m × 0.25 mm; i.d., 0.25 ㎛) and were then subjected to electron impact ionization in multiple reaction monitoring mode. The established method was validated and further employed to analyze authentic samples. Limits of detection (LODs) and limits of quantification (LOQs) of the 13 nitrosamines were 15-250 ng/g and 50-250 ng/g, respectively, which also exhibited intra-day and inter-day accuracies of 91.4-104.8%, thereby satisfying validation criteria. Five nitrosamines, viz., N-nitrosodiethylamine, N-nitrosodimethylamine, N-nitrosodiphenylamine, N-nitrosomorpholine, and N-nitrosopiperidine were detected at concentrations above their LODs in 68 positive samples out of 594 authentic samples from seven sartans.
