  • The driving-current degradation of a-Si:H thin-film transistor(TFT) device has been analyzed for the first time. A method to analyze the performance of TFT circuits is presented, which is different from the conventional one by threshold voltage shift method. It can be also used to evaluate the performance of gate driver on array (GOA) circuit, which is integrated in a 12.1" WXGA ($1280{\ast}3{\ast}800$) TFT-LCD panel.

  • The current drive in a MOSFET is limited by the intrinsic channel resistance. All other parasitic elements in a device structure perform significant functions leading to degradation in the device performance. These other resistances must be less than 10$\%$-20$\%$ of the channel resistance. To meet the necessary requirements, the methodology of separation and quantification of those resistances should be investigated. In this paper, we developed an extraction method for the resistances using calibrated TCAD simulation. The resistance of the extension region is also partially determined by the formation of a surface accumulation region that gathers below the gate in the tail region of the extension profile. This resistance is strongly affected by the abruptness of the extension profile because the steeper the profile is, the shorter this accumulation region will be.

  • The scaling of device dimension and supply voltage with high performance and reliability has been the main subject in the evolution of VLSI technology, The MOSFET structures become susceptible to high field related reliability problems such as hot-electron induced device degradation and dielectric breakdown. HLDBD(HLD Buffered Deposition) is used to decrease junction electric field in this paper. Also we compared the hot carrier characteristics of HLDBD and conventional.

  • We have investigated the optical properties of Te-doped ZnSSe:Te epitaxial layers grown on (100) GaAs substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. The Te-doped ternary specimen shows strong blue or green emission (at 300k) which is assigned to Te$_{1}$ or Te$_{n}$( n$\geq$2) cluster bound exciton. Bright green and blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have been developed using ZnSSe:Te system as an active layer. The green LEDs exhibit a fairly long device lifetime (>2000 h) when operated at 3 A/cm$^{2}$ under CW condition at room temperature. It is confirmed that the Te-doping induced "crystal-hardening effect" plays a significant role in both efficient and strong suppression of the optical device degradation.gradation.

  • The current paper describes a simpler ground-type, single-plate electrowetting configuration for droplet transport in digital microfluidics without performance degradation. The simplified fabrication process is achieved with two photolithography steps. The first step simultaneously patterns both a control electrode array and a reference electrode on a substrate. The second step patterns a dielectric layer at the top to expose the reference electrode for grounding the liquid droplet. In the experiment, a $5{\mu}m$ thick photo-imageable polyimide, with a 3.3 dielectric constant, is used as the dielectric layer. A 10 nm Teflon-AF is coated to obtain a hydrophobic surface with a high water advancing angle of $116^{\circ}$ and a small contact angle hysteresis of $5^{\circ}$. The droplet movement of 1 mM methylene blue on this simplified device is successfully demonstrated at control voltages above the required 45 V to overcome the contact angle hysteresis.

  • It has become ever harder to design reliable circuits with each nanometer technology node under normal operation conditions, a transistor device can be affected by various aging effects resulting in performance degradation and eventually design failure. The reliability (aging) effect has traditionally been the area of process engineers. However, in the future, even the smallest of variations can slow down a transistor's switching speed, and an aging device may not perform adequately at a very low voltage. Because of such dilemmas, the transistor aging is emerging as a circuit designer's problem. Therefore, in this paper, the impact of aging effects on the delay and power dissipation of digital circuits by using nanomneter MOSFET power gating structure has been analyzed.. Based on this analyzed aging models, a reliable digital circuits can be designed.

  • As the development of semiconductor process technology continue to advance, ICs continue their trend toward higher performance low power system-on-chip (SOC). These circuits require on board multi power supply. In this paper, a 0.5 ㎛ dual date oxide CMOS Process technology for multi-power application is demonstrated. 5 V and 20 V devices fabricated by proposed process is measured. From 5 V devices using dual gate precess, we got almost the same characteristics as are obtained from standard 5 V devices. And the characteristics of the 20 V device demonstrates that 3 ㎛ devices with minimum gate length are available without reliability degradation. Electrical parameters in minimum 3 ㎛ devices are 520 ㎂/㎛ current density, 120 ㎷ DIBL, 24 V BV for NMOS and ,350 ㎂/㎛ current density, 180 ㎷ DIBL, 26 V BV for PMOS, respectively.

  • We investigated a double ring resonator(DRR)device to improve the resonating Q value of a superconductor resonator. To make a DRR device, we made a large area YBCO film on a MgO substrate by pulsed laser deposition(PLD). Thetransition temperature was 88 K and the film was uniformly deposited. We also deposited 500$\AA$SrTiO$_{3}$on the YBCO thin film to protect the superconducting properties from degradation. The loaded Q value was measured as 50000 from simulation and as 2000 from experiment near 10GHz at 77K.

  • In this paper, we address the TCP-over-WLAN performance problem that occurs during periodic active background scanning with which mobile devices discover available APs in the vicinity. We measure the impact of the scanning period on the TCP throughput and observe a significant performance degradation when the scan operation period is shortened. Our experimental analysis has identified the main cause of the problem, that is, the associated AP continues to send packets to the mobile device even when the device is not able to receive due to the scanning operation.

  • The Organic Electroluminescence (OEL) device, that was consisted of ALq3(8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum) and TPD(N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine), has been used. We investigated characteristics of brightness and current density about OEL that was oxidated each layers. We used two samples that were fabricated each continuous and non-continuous method. Emission was observed above 10mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and luminance was measured to be 1530cd/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at a current density of 100mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$. A luminance of over 2600cd/$\textrm{cm}^2$ was also observed after the final fabrication process.
