Squeezed Electrons in GaN Quantum Wells
We present an analytic theory of hot-electron transport in a GaN quantum well containing a large-enough electron concentration for strong electron-electron scattering to establish a drifted distribution. Novel behaviour includes the squeezed electron distribution and [...]
Modelling of Atmosphere Sensitive Heterojunctions for Device Applications
Simple and inexpensive methods of detecting pollutants in ambients are needed for maintenance of safe environment in modern industries. Chemical sensors based on catalytic combustion and using solid state electrolytes and semiconducting oxides etc. are [...]

Ravariu C., Ravariu F., Rusu A., Dobrescu D., Dobrescu L., Dobrescu D., Dobrescu L., Ravariu C., Ravariu F., Codreanu C., Avram M., University of Bucharest, RO
The analytical models for the electric field and potential distributions are necessary to establish the inversion or accumulation conditions at the front and back interfaces for a lot of SOI devices. The paper refers to [...]
Monte-Carlo Simulation of GaAs Devices Using High Generality Object-Oriented Code and Encapsulated Scattering Tables
Many factors are responsible for the continued shift in industry prototyping preference from device fabrication to device simulation. One of the incentives for this transition is the generality and flexibility gained by avoiding a physical [...]
A Velocity-Overshoot Subthreshold Current Model for Deep-Submicrometer MOSFET Devices
In this paper, a new theoretical approach to submicrometer MOSFET subthreshold current modeling is presented. The diffusion and drift currents are calculated, respectively. The effect of velocity overshoot on subthreshold current is investigated. Comparison with [...]
Inverse Modeling for C-V Profiling of Modulated-Doped Semiconductor Structures
Inverse modeling is a way for the verification of device models and for the parameter extraction. A technique of doping profile extraction of semiconductor structures based on the capacitance-voltage measurements (or C-V profiling) is used [...]
The 2.4F2 Memory Cell Technology with Stacked-Surrounding Gate Transistor (S-SGT) DRAM
This paper reports that the Stacked-Surrounding Gate Transistor (S-SGT) DRAM achieves a cell size of 2.4F 2. The S-SGT DRAM is structured by stacking several SGT-type cells in series vertically. In order to realize cell [...]
Equation of p-n Junction for High Current Density Models of Transistor
The results of theoretical and experimental investigations of p-n junction at junction voltages close to the potential barrier are presented. It is shown that in such a situation the voltage-current characteristic can be described by [...]
Study of Well Barrier Hole Burning in Quantum Well Bistable Lasers
Quantum carrier capture and release effects on optical bistability in multiple quantum well (MQW) lasers are studied using the well barrier hole burning model. The ratio of carrier capture to release time (h) is varied [...]
