Polarities of plasma charging damage in n- and p-channel MOSFETs with Hf-based high-k gate stack (HfAlOx/SiO2) were studied for two different plasma sources (Ar-and Cl-based gas mixtures), and found to depend on plasma conditions, in contrast to those with conventional SiO2. For Ar-plasma, which was confirmed to induce a larger charging damage, both n- and p-ch MOSFETs with high-k gate stacks suffer...
In this study, we fabricated in-plane thermoelectric micro-generators (4 mm times 4 mm) based on bismuth telluride thin films by using flash evaporation method. The thermoelectric properties of as-grown thin films are lower than those of bulk materials. Therefore the as-grown thin films were annealed in hydrogen at atmospheric pressure for 1 hour in a temperature range of 200 degC. to 400degC. By...
Current topics related to scanning tunneling microscopes (STMs) and atomic force microscopes (AFMs) are reviewed. The first two topics concern recent applications of STMs and AFMs as microscopes with atomic resolution, and recent experiments on atomic and molecular manipulation using STMs. A new multifunctional scanning probe microscope (SPM) system incorporating an AFM/STM is then introduced. Finally,...
