Visualization of and Educational Tool for Quantum Dots
Presentation Materials | 15 Aug 2004 | Contributor(s):: Aaron Christensen, Adrian Rios
Quantum dots (QDs) are confined structures made of metals and semiconductors that are capable of containing free electrons.The ability to visualize these small devices is advantageous in determining probable electron orbitals and in observing information not easily conceived in raw datasets.

Measurements of Interface Trap Density in MOS Capacitors Using AC Conductance Method
Presentation Materials | 15 Aug 2004 | Contributor(s):: Benafsha Shahlori
4-H SiC MOS capacitors have a broad interface state density located at approximately 2.9eV above the valence band edge. These states reduce mobility through carrier trapping which in turn affects the electrical performance of these devices. The ac conductance technique is used to measure...

Faster Materials versus Nanoscaled Si and SiGe: A Fork in the Roadmap?
Online Presentations | 20 Apr 2004 | Contributor(s):: Jerry M. Woodall
Strained Si and SiGe MOSFET technologies face fundamental limits towards the end of this decade when the technology roadmap calls for gate dimensions of 45 nm headed for 22 nm. This fact, and difficulties in developing a suitable high-K dielectric, have stimulated the search for alternatives to...

Control of Exchange Interaction in a Double Dot System
Online Presentations | 05 Feb 2004 | Contributor(s):: Mike Stopa
As Rolf Landauer observed in 1960, information is physical. As a consequence, the transport and processing of information must obey the laws of physics. It therefore makes sense to base the laws of information processing and computation on the laws of physics and in particular on quantum...
