Enhanced performance is demonstrated in n-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors with channel regions formed by pseudomorphic growth of strained Si on relaxed Si1-xGex. Standard MOS fabrication techniques were utilized, including thermal oxidation of the strained Si. Surface channel devices show low-field mobility enhancements of 80% at room temperature and 12% at 10 K, when compared to control devices fabricated in Czochralski Si. Similar enhancements are observed in the device transconductance. In addition, buried channel devices show peak room temperature mobilities about three times that of control devices 相似文献

The fundamental lower limit on the turn on voltage of GaAs-based bipolar transistors is first established, then reduced with the use of a novel low energy-gap base material, Ga/sub 1-x/In/sub x/As/sub 1-y/N/sub y/. InGaP/GaInAsN DHBTs (x/spl sim/3y/spl sim/0.01) with high p-type doping levels (/spl sim/3/spl times/10/sup 19/ cm/sup -3/) and dc current gain (/spl beta//sub max//spl sim/68 at 234 /spl Omega///spl square/) are demonstrated. A reduction in the turn-on voltage over a wide range of practical base sheet resistance values (100 to 400 /spl Omega///spl square/) is established relative to both GaAs BJTs and conventional InGaP/GaAs HBTs with optimized base-emitter interfaces-over 25 mV in heavily doped, high dc current gain samples. The potential to engineer turn-on voltages comparable to Si- or InP-based bipolar devices on a GaAs platform is enabled by the use of lattice matched Ga/sub 1-x/In/sub x/As/sub 1-y/N/sub y/ alloys, which can simultaneously reduce the energy-gap and balance the lattice constant of the base layer when x/spl sim/3y. 相似文献

AlGaAs/GaAs/GaAs and GaInP/GaAs/GaAs n-p-n heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) are now in widespread use in microwave power amplifiers. In this paper, improved HBT structures are presented to address issues currently problematic for these devices: high offset and knee voltages and saturation charge storage. Reduced HBT offset and knee voltages (V/sub CE,os/ and V/sub k/) are important to improve the power amplifier efficiency. Reduced saturation charge storage is desirable to increase gain under conditions when the transistor saturates (such as in over-driven Class AB amplifiers and switching mode amplifiers). It is shown in this paper that HBT structures using a 100-/spl Aring/-thick layer of GaInP between the GaAs base, and collector layers are effective in reducing V/sub CE,os/ to 30 mV and V/sub k/ measured at a collector current density of 2/spl times/10/sup 4/ A/cm/sup 2/ to 0.3 V (while for conventional HBTs V/sub CE,os/=0.2 V and V/sub k/=0.5 V are typical). A five-fold reduction in saturation charge storage is simultaneously obtained. 相似文献

Changes in absorbance of monolayer of living cells induced by laserradiation at 633, 670, and 820 nm

Redox absorbance changes in living cells (monolayer of HeLa cells) under laser irradiation at 633, 670, and 820 nm have been studied by the method of multichannel recording in spectral range 530-890 nm. It has been found that the irradiation causes changes in the absorption spectrum of the cells in two regions, near 754-795 nm (maxima at 757, 775, and 795 nm) and near 812-873 nm (maxima at 819, 837, 858, and 873 nm). Changes occur in band parameters (peak positions, width, and integral intensity). Virtually no changes occur in the red spectral region and a few changes are recorded in the green region near 556-565 nm. The results obtained evidence that cytochrome c oxidase becomes more oxidized (which means that the oxidative metabolism is increased) due to irradiation at all wavelengths used. The results of present experiment support the suggestion (Karu, Lasers Life Sci., 2:53, 1988) that the mechanism of low-power laser therapy at the cellular level is based on the electronic excitation of chromophores in cytochrome c oxidase which modulates α redox status of the molecule and enhances its functional activity 相似文献

This paper studies the diffusion of SuggestBot, an intelligent task recommendation system that helps people find articles to edit in Wikipedia. We investigate factors that predict who adopts SuggestBot and its impact on adopters' future contributions to this online community. Analyzing records of participants' activities in Wikipedia, we found that both individual characteristics and social ties influence adoption. Specially, we found that highly involved contributors were more likely to adopt SuggestBot; interpersonal exposure to innovation, cohesion, and tie homophily all substantially increased the likelihood of adoption. However, connections to prominent, high‐status contributors did not influence adoption. Finally, although the SuggestBot innovation saw limited distribution, adopters made significantly more contributions to Wikipedia after adoption than nonadopter counterparts in the comparison group. 相似文献

A simple graphical method is used to establish that the (AlxGa1−x)0.65In0.35As semiconductor alloy provides the range of energy-band gaps required to both maximize power conversion efficiency and achieve current-matching for two-terminal, multijunction solar cells. Within this framework, the development needs of a three junction, monolithic solar cell with lattice-matched subcells and a strain-relieved GayIn1−yAs/GaAs pseudo-substrate are discussed. The theoretical limiting efficiency of the proposed design is approximately 47.2% at 1 sun (AM 1.5 spectrum). 相似文献

In this study, admittance spectroscopy is applied for the first time to MOS capacitors fabricated on Si/Si1-xGex/Si double-heterostructures, in order to evaluate the valence band discontinuity ΔEv at the Si/Si1-xGex interface. The principle of the measurement is presented and verified by the experimental results. A new feature of admittance spectroscopy applied to MOS capacitors is the ability to select the interface whose barrier is measured, by controlling the gate voltage. This fact is confirmed by the measurement of MOS capacitors, which include a SiGe well with different Ge contents at the front and the back interfaces. It is found from this measurement that, while ΔEv at the back interface of the double-heterostructure is measured under slight depletion conditions for MOS capacitors, ΔEv averaged between the front and the back interfaces is measured under accumulation conditions. The Gex content dependence of the measured ΔEv is found to be in fairly good agreement with the theoretical values 相似文献

An optimized four‐layer tailored‐ and low‐refractive index anti‐reflection (AR) coating on an inverted metamorphic (IMM) triple‐junction solar cell device is demonstrated. Due to an excellent refractive index matching with the ambient air by using tailored‐ and low‐refractive index nanoporous SiO2 layers and owing to a multiple‐discrete‐layer design of the AR coating optimized by a genetic algorithm, such a four‐layer AR coating shows excellent broadband and omnidirectional AR characteristics and significantly enhances the omnidirectional photovoltaic performance of IMM solar cell devices. Comparing the photovoltaic performance of an IMM solar cell device with the four‐layer AR coating and an IMM solar cell with the conventional SiO2/TiO2 double layer AR coating, the four‐layer AR coating achieves an angle‐of‐incidence (AOI) averaged short‐circuit current density, JSC, enhancement of 34.4%, whereas the conventional double layer AR coating only achieves an AOI‐averaged JSC enhancement of 25.3%. The measured reflectance reduction and omnidirectional photovoltaic performance enhancement of the four‐layer AR coating are to our knowledge, the largest ever reported in the literature of solar cell devices. 相似文献

This paper describes a novel heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) structure, the collector-up tunneling-collector HBT (C-up TC-HBT), that minimizes the offset voltage V/sub CE,sat/ and the knee voltage V/sub k/. In this device, a thin GaInP layer is used as a tunnel barrier at the base-collector (BC) junction to suppress hole injection into the collector, which results in small V/sub CE,sat/. Collector-up configuration is used because of the observed asymmetry of the band discontinuity between GaInP and GaAs depending on growth direction. To minimize V/sub k/, we optimized the epitaxial layer structure as well as the conditions of ion implantation into the extrinsic emitter and post-implantation annealing. The best results were obtained when a 5-nm-thick 5/spl times/10/sup 17/-cm/sup -3/-doped GaInP tunnel barrier with a 20-nm-thick undoped GaAs spacer was used at the BC junction, and when 2/spl times/10/sup 12/-cm/sup -2/ 50-keV B implantation was employed followed by 10-min annealing at 390/spl deg/C. Fabricated 40/spl times/40-/spl mu/m/sup 2/ C-up TC-HBTs showed almost zero V/sub CE,sat/ (<10 mV) and a very small V/sub k/ of 0.29 V at a collector current density of 4 kA/cm/sub 2/, which are much lower than those of a typical GaInP/GaAs HBT. The results indicate that the C-up TC-HBT's are attractive candidates for high-efficiency high power amplifiers. 相似文献
