Fabrication and characterization of Algan/Gan high electron mobility transistors on silicon by Tham, Wai Hoe

“…Therefore, the current experimental studies suggest that the Ge doping approach is more suitable as a VTH tuning method. Although the fabrication cost of GaN-based devices can be reduced significantly through the incorporation with Si technology, there are several challenges which impede the incorporation of GaN-based devices with Si technology. …”

Great enhancement effect of 20-40 nm Ag NPs on solar-blind UV response of the mixed-phase MgZnO detector by Han, Shun, Xia, Hao, Lu, Youming, Hu, Sirong, Zhang, Dao Hua, Xu, Wangying, Fang, Ming, Liu, Wenjun, Cao, Peijiang, Zhu, Deliang

“…Here, the effects of Ag nanoparticles (NPs) with different sizes on UV response characteristics of the device are studied, the Ag NPs with different sizes that are made from a simple vacuum anneal method. Ag NPs with different sizes could modulate the peak response position of the mixed-phase MgZnO detector from near UV range (350 nm) to deep UV range (235 nm), and the enhancement effect of the Ag NPs on the UV response differs much with the crystal structure and the basic UV response of the MgZnO thin film. …”
