  • We have fabricated a single-electron-tunneling(SET) transistor with a dual gate geometry based on the SOI structure prepared by SIMOX wafers. The split-gate is the lower-gate is the lower-level gate and located ∼ 100${\AA}$ right above the inversion layer 2DEG active channel, which yields strong carrier confinement with fully controllable tunneling potential barrier. The transistor is operating at low temperatures and exhibits the single electron tunneling behavior through nano-size quantum dot. The Coulomb-Blockade oscillation is demonstrated at 15mK and its periodicity of 16.4mV in the upper-gate voltage corresponds to the formation of quantum dots with a capacity of 9.7aF. For non-linear transport regime, Coulomb-staircases are clearly observed up to four current steps in the range of 100mV drain-source bias. The I-V characteristics near the zero-bias displays typical Coulomb-gap due to one-electron charging effect.

  • We have fabricated a LDD structured polysilicon thin film transistor with low leakge current and the optimized LDD length has been obtained. The device performance is improved is improved by hydrogen passivation process. The on.off current ratio of poly0Si TFT s with $0.5{\mu}m$ and $1.0{\mu}m$ LDD length is much higher than that of conventional structured device due to the decrease of leakege current. The optimized LDD length may be $0.5{\mu}$ from the experimental data such as on/off current ratio, threshold voltage and hydrogenation effect.

  • We have studied the pressure-dependent liquid crystal's dynamics in a twisted nematic (TN) liquid crystal panel with thin film transistor by applying an external pressure to it. When the external pressure is applied to the panel in a dark state, the disclination lines were generated as a light leakage whereas they did not appear in a simple test cell that has only pixel and common electrodes. It was because the disclination lines were Provoked by the electric field between pixel electrode and data/gate bus line for active matrix driving. Consequently, the external pressure resulted in dynamic instability of the liquid crystal so that the disclination lines at the data/gate bus line intruded into the active area.

  • Semiconductor spintronics is an emerging interdisciplinary technology based on the electron spin degree of freedom, combining the magnetic materials and semiconductors. The spin transistor represents a novel semiconductor device, in which the electron spin is injected, manipulated, and detected, and thereby a memory function and data processing function are enabled in one device. Particularly, the spin transistor based on Silicon, the mainstream semiconductor, might have a significant impact on information technology. This review introduces the major progresses of Silicon spintronics in recent years, and describes the technical issues for the future.

  • ZnO is a wide bandgap (3.3 eV) semiconductor with high mobility and good optical transparency. However, off-current characteristics of ZnO thin-film transistor (TFT) need improvements. In this work we studied the variation in ZnO TFT current under different annealing conditions. Annealing usually modifies gas adsorption at grain boundaries of ZnO. When oxygen is adsorbed, electron density decreases due to strong electronegativity of the oxygen, and TFT current decreases as a result. Our experiments showed that current increased after vacuum annealing and decreased after air annealing. We explain that the change of off-current is caused by the desorption and adsorption of oxygen at the grain boundaries.

  • The analysis of differential amplifier is simplified by the extention of bisection theorem. In order to reduce the thermal and porwor drifts, a self compensating circuit is employed. The optimum conditions of the self compensating circuit are: the base-emitter voltage of one transistor should be equal to the other's base-emitter voltage for basic self compensating circuit, the tempereature coefficients of base-emitter voltage of one transistor equal to the others for thermal compensation. By regarding the thermal and power drifts the experiments were performed were performed and the numerical results were consistent with the measured values.

  • The magnetoresistance (MR) and the magnetization reversal of a lateral spin-injection device based on a spin-polarized field effect transistor (spin FET) have been investigated. The device consists of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) system in an InAs single quantum well (SQW) and two ferromagnetic $(Ni_{80}Fe_{20})$ contacts: all injector (source) and a detector (drain). Spin-polarized electrons are injected from the first contact and, after propagating through the InAs SQW are collected by the second contact. By engineering the shape of the permalloy contacts, we were able to observe distinct switching fields $(H_c)$ from the injector and the collector by using scanning Kerr microscopy and MR measurements. Magneto-optic Kerr effect (MOKE) hysteresis loops demonstrate that there is a range of magnetic field (20~60 Oe), at room temperature, over which the magnetization in one contact is aligned antiparallel to that in the other. The MOKE results are consistent with the variation of the magnetoresistance in the spin-injection device.

  • Pentacene moiety has been widely studied in Organic Thin-Film Transistor (OTFT) device as a channel layer because of high carrier mobility. In this study, we have fabricated vertical type Organic Static Induction Transistors (SITs) using pentacene, 6,13-Dinaphthalen-1-ly-Pentacene (1-DNP, 3), and 6,13-Dinaphthalen-2- ly-Pentacene (2-DNP, 4). 1-DNP and 2-DNP have same naphtyl group with pentacene, but different linked position and spatial arrangement. We have checked the static characteristics of materials in vertical type SITs device. We found that pentacene has as on/off ratio of 14.56, 1-DNP and 2-DNP shows as on/off ratio of 36.58 and 6.61 at VDS = 2V in SIT, respectively.
