  • Solution-processible hybrid bipolar field effect transistors (HBFETs) with balanced hole and electron mobilities were fabricated using a combination of the organic p-type poly (3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) layer and inorganic n-type ZnO material. The hole and electron mobilities were first optimized in single layer devices by using acetonitrile as a solvent additive to process the P3HT and annealing to process the ZnO layer. The highest hole mobility of the P3HT-only-devices with 5% acetonitrile was 0.15 cm2V-1s-1, while the largest electron mobility was observed in the ZnO-only-devices annealed at $200^{\circ}C$ and found to be $7.2{\times}10-2cm2V-1s-1$. The inorganic-organic HBFETs consisting of P3HT with 5% acetonitrile and ZnO layer annealed at $200^{\circ}C$ exhibited balanced hole and electron mobilities of $4.0{\times}10-2$ and $3.9{\times}10-2cm2V-1s-1$, respectively. The effect on surface morphology and crystallinity by adding acetonitrile and thermal annealing were investigated through X-ray diffraction and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Our findings indicate that techniques demonstrated herein are of great utility in improving the performance of inorganic-organic hybrid devices

  • This study presents a circuit model for simulating the switching transients of insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) with inductive load switching. The modeling approach used in this study considers the behavior of IGBTs and freewheeling diodes during the transient process and ignores the complex semiconductor physics-based relationships and parameters. The proposed circuit model can accurately simulate the switching behavior due to the detailed consideration of device-circuit interactions and the nonlinear nature of model parameters, such as internal capacitances. The developed model is incorporated in an IGBT loss calculation module of an electromagnetic transient simulation program to enable the estimation of switching losses in voltage source converters embedded in large power systems.

  • The differences between floating and grounded body effects in polycrystalline silicon thin-film transistors (polysilicon TFTs) are investigated by making a body contact. The floating body effects such as kink effect, subthreshold slope change, and body current characteristics are explained and modeled by impact ionization, which causes source body turn on, and activates the parasitic bipolar junction transistors (BJTs). These effects become crucial for channel lengths of 4㎛ or shorter. Our data show that making a body contact reduces kink effects significantly and identifies impact ionization mechanism in polysilicon TFTs.

  • This paper presents preliminary results on the degradation of BJTs(Bipolar Junction Transistors) and MOSFETs(Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors) by 1MeV electron beam. Exposure experimental results show that the change of minority-carrier life time in base region dominates the behavior of BJTs and that the buildup of charges in oxide region can affect the value of threshold voltage for MOSFETs. It was possible to correlate the decrease of the minority-carrier life time of BJTs with irradiation dose, while the shift of MOSFETs' threshold voltage was not only a function of charge buildup in oxide region.

  • A new analytical model for the base current of Si/SiGe/Si heterojunction bipolar transistors(HBTs) has been developed. This model includes the hole injection current from the base to the emitter, and the recombination components in the space charge region(SCR) and the neutral base. Distinctly different from other models, this model includes the following effects on each base current component by using the boundary condition of the excess minority carrier concentration at SCR boundaries: the first is the effect of the parasitic potential barrier which is formed at the Si/SiGe collector-base heterojunction due to the dopant outdiffusion from the SiGe base to the adjacent Si collector, and the second is the Ge composition grading effect. The effectiveness of this model is confirmed by comparing the calculated result with the measured plot of the base current vs. the collector-base bias voltage for the ungraded HBT. The decreasing base current with the increasing the collector-base reverse bias voltage is successfully explained by this model without assuming the short-lifetime region close to the SiGe/Si collector-base junction, where a complete absence of dislocations is confirmed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM)[1].The recombination component in the neutral base region is shown to dominate other components even for HBTs with a thin base, due to the increased carrier storage in the vicinity of the parasitic potential barrier at collector-base heterojunction.

  • 본 논문에서는 package된 BJT의 RF 등가회로 모델을 optimization과정 없이 직접 추출하는 방법을 개발하였다. 먼저, open 과 short package 구조를 사용하여 plastic package의 기생성분을 측정된 S-파라미터로부터 정확히 제거하였다. 이와 같이 package do-embedding된 S-파라미터로부터 package lead와 chip pad 사이의 bonding wire 인덕턴스와 chip pad 캐패시턴스를 직접 추출하는 간단한 방법을 구축하였다. 그 후에 내부 BJT소자의 소신호 모델변수들은 RF 등가회로로부터 유도된 Z나 Y-파라미터 방정식을 이용하여 결정하였다. 이 방법으로 모델화된 packaged BJT의 S-파라미터는 측정 데이터와 아주 잘 일치하였으며 이는 새로운 추출방법의 정확성을 증명한다.

  • This paper investigates the two dominant but intertwined current blocking mechanisms of Switching and Kirk Effect in pure ternary InAlAs/InGaAs/InAlAs Double Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (DHBTs). Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) grown, lattice-matched samples have been investigated giving substantial experimental results and theoretical reasoning to explain the interplay between these two effects as the current density is increased up to and beyond the theoretical Kirk Effect limit for devices of emitter areas varying from $20{\times}20{\mu}m^2$ to $1{\times}5{\mu}m^2$. Pure ternary InAlAs/InGaAs/InAlAs DHBTs are ideally suited for such investigations because, unless corrective measures are taken, these devices suffer from appreciable current blocking effect due to their large conduction band discontinuity of 0.5 eV and thus facilitating the observation of the two different physical phenomena. This enhanced understanding of the interplay between the Kirk and Switching effect makes the DHBT device design and optimization process more effective and efficient.

  • The effects of the conditions of the collector formation on electrical characteristics of the packaged SiGe hetero-junction bipolar transistors (HBT) were investigated. While the DC characteristics of SiGe HBTs such as IV characteristic, forward current gain, Early voltage, and breakdown voltage were hardly changed after packaging, the AC characteristics such as $f_{\tau}\; and\; f_{max}$ were degraded severely. With the rise of the collector concentration, the break-down voltage decreased but the $f_{\tau}$ increased. Additionally, $\beta$ and $f_{\tau}$ values were kept high in the range of elevated collector current due to the increase of the critical current density for the onset of the Kirk effect. The devices As implanted before the collector deposition showed lower breakdown voltage and higher $f_{\tau}$ than the others, which seems to be originated from the As up-diffusion resulting in the thinner collector.

  • 2차원 n-p-n 바이폴라 트랜지스터의 수치해석을 위한 프로그램(BIPOLE)을 개발하였다. 이 프로그램은 SRH와 Auger 재결합 기구들과 불순물 농도와 전계강도에 대한 운송자 이동도의 의존성과 밴드 갭 축소 효과들을 포함하고 있다. Poisson 방정식에는 Newton법을 또 정공과 전자의 연속 방정식에는 발산이론을 이용하여 여러가지 물리적인 제한없이 기본 반도체 방정식들에 대한 유한차분 공식들을 만들었다. 선형화된 방정식들의 계수 행렬은 희소 대칭 M 행렬이었는데 그 해를 구하기 위해 ICCG법과 Gummel의 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 이 프로그램 BIPOLE를 n-p-n 트랜지스터의 여러가지 정상 상태 문제에 적용시켰다. 그 응용의 보기로서 공통 에미터 전류이득의 변화, 에미터 용량에 대한 확산용량이 미치는 영향과 입출력 특성곡선들을 계산해 보았다. 전위 분포와 전자와 정공 농도분포와 같은 계산 결과를 3차원 컴퓨터 그래픽으로 도시하였다. 이 프로그램은 장차 2차원 트랜지스터의 교류 및 왜곡 현상의 수치해석의 기초로 이용될 것이며, 이 프로그램에 관심있는 모든 분들께 공급될 것이다.
