Journal ArticleDOI

The onset of quantization in ultra-submicron semiconductor devices

TL;DR: In this article, an effective potential is proposed to remove sharp discontinuities from the potential within the device, which removes much of the driving force for quantization within these device structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bulk GaN and AlGaN∕GaN heterostructure drift velocity measurements and comparison to theoretical models

TL;DR: In this paper, the room temperature velocity-field characteristics for n-type gallium nitride and AlGaN∕GaN heterostructures, grown epitaxially on sapphire, were determined experimentally.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dissipation in Computation

TL;DR: In this article, the question of the energy dissipation in the computational process is considered, and it is found that dissipation is an integral part of computation, and a complementarity is suggested between systems that are describable in thermodynamic terms and systems that can be used for computation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relativistic Quantum Scars

TL;DR: Graphene confinements made of graphene whose classical dynamics are chaotic are investigated and unequivocal evidence of relativistic quantum scars is found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of top dielectric medium on gate capacitance of graphene field effect transistors: implications in mobility measurements and sensor applications.

TL;DR: This work strongly suggests that the previously reported top dielectric medium-induced charge transport properties of graphene FETs are possibly due to the increase of gate capacitance, rather than enhancement of carrier mobility.
