    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; interface states; thermally stimulated current TSC ; positron annihilation spectroscopy PAS ; silicon carbide SiC ; metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor MOSFET ; transmission electron microscopy TEM ; deep level transient spectroscopy DLTS ; metal-oxide-semiconductor MOS ; field-effect mobility; capacitance-voltage C-V ;

    Abstract : The interface between silicon dioxide (SiO2) and silicon carbide (SiC) is at the heart of the SiC metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect (MOSFET) transistor. The technology to produce a high quality SiO2/SiC interface does not exist today, hampering further development of the SiC MOSFET. READ MORE

    Abstract : In the past decades, silicon nanowire field-effect transistors (SiNWFETs) have been explored for label-free, highly sensitive, and real-time detections of chemical and biological species. The SiNWFETs are anticipated for sensing analyte at ultralow concentrations, even at single-molecule level, owing to their significantly improved charge sensitivity over large-area FETs. READ MORE

    Abstract : Power dissipation has been the major challenge in the downscaling of transistor technology. Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors (MOSFETs) have struggled to keep a low power consumption while still maintaining a high performance due to the low carrier mobilities of Si but also due to their inherent minimum inverse subthreshold slope (S ≥ 60 mV/dec) which is limited by thermionic emission.
