Enhanced performance of all organic field-effect transistors and capacitors through choice of solvent

Guha S., Knotts G., Ukah N.B., University of Missouri, US

We demonstrate low-operating voltage, high mobility, and stable organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) using both non-polar and polar polymeric dielectrics such as poly(4-vinyl phenol) (PVP), poly methyl metacrylate (PMMA), and polyvinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene (PVDF-TrFe), dissolved in solvents [...]

Random Dopant Fluctuation in 10-nm-Gate Multi-Channel Gate-All-Around Nanowire Field Effect Transistors

Chang H-T, Li Y., National Chiao Tung University, TW

This paper, for the first time, studies the random dopant fluctuation (RDF) in the 10-nm-gate multi-channel gate-all-around nanowire field-effect transistors (FETs). To characterize device’s physical and electrical characteristic fluctuation, a 3D statistically atomistic approach to [...]

Probing Protein-Carbohydrate Interactions using Carbon Nanotube Nanodevices for Rapid Bacterial Detection

Vedala H., Chen Y., Star A., University of Pittsburgh, US

In this work, we demonstrate novel nanoelectronics devices based on single-walled carbon nanotube field-effect transistor (NTFET) to probe the interactions between carbohydrates and their recognition proteins called lectins. These interactions are involved in a wide [...]

Digital signal processing post-hybridization of DNA Biosensor

Afuwape S.A., National University, San Diego, US

The non-label DNA biosensor detects hybridization due to enhanced biomolecules surface-binding specifically on glass or plastic platform, now broadly extended to active surface such as field-effect transistors with scalability of the platform gate. The latter [...]
