For the first time, the ion-vacancy-based bipolar RRAM has been demonstrated on HKMG stack of FEOL logic 14nm FinFET. A unit cell with two identical FinFETs, one serves as a control transistor and the other one is the storage with resistance switching. It is performed by the edge tunneling and with bipolar switching. More importantly, the sneak path issue in an AND-type array based on this FinFET...
This work marks the first use of in-situ photopolymerization to create single-layer microfluidic devices which serve as ultra-low Reynolds Number (Re) current sources to regulate fluid flow rate independent of operating pressures. Autonomous fluidic components are an emerging aspect of micro/nanofluidic circuits and applications; however, many existing fluidic applications require specific pressure...
The conventional threshold voltage shift measured by extrapolating transfer characteristics, ΔVth(ex), underestimates the NBTI-induced degradation of drain current, ΔId. Mobility degradation, Δμ, has been proposed as a potential contributor to ΔId. Evaluating Δμ, however, can be problematic and controversial. For test engineers, it is desirable to include all degradations in one parameter and we propose...
Analog-to-digital conversion plays an essential role in all kinds of electronics systems, including signal processing, communications and storage. In particular, interpolated flash ADC has been widely used in high-speed systems requiring very high sampling speed. Obviously, practical ADC design is very challenging, which has been dominated by experiences and trial-and-error skills. This is true to...
A new combined AC/DC-coupled output averaging technique for input amplifier design of flash analog-to-digital converters (ADC) is presented. The new offset averaging design technique takes full advantages of traditional DC-coupled resistance averaging and AC-coupled capacitance averaging techniques to minimize offset-induced ADC nonlinearities. Circuit analysis allows selection of optimum resistance...
Two-phase superconductor tapes were produced by blending high purity magnesium diboride powder with a liquid ethylcellulose-based polymeric binder. This procedure produced a material which is easily formable with a high superconducting transition temperature (38 K). We show that the bulk superconducting properties are not affected by the presence of the binder, nor is there any evidence of a chemical...
