On-chip tensile testing of nanoscale silicon free-standing beams

TL;DR: In this paper, the Young's modulus was observed to decrease from 160 GPa down to 108 GPa when varying the thickness from 200 down to 50 nm and the fracture strain increases when decreasing the volume of the test specimen to reach 5% in the smallest samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Local solid phase growth of few-layer graphene on silicon carbide from nickel silicide supersaturated with carbon

TL;DR: In this paper, a few-layer graphene (FLG) films were obtained by local solid phase growth from nickel silicide supersaturated with carbon, following a fabrication scheme, which allows the formation of self-aligned ohmic contacts on FLG and is compatible with conventional SiC device processing methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strained Si/SiGe MOS technology: Improving gate dielectric integrity

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel thin virtual substrate aimed at reducing self-heating effects is investigated, which provides further improvements to gate oxide integrity, reliability and lifetime compared with conventional thick virtual substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling of the Threshold Voltage in Strained $\hbox{Si/Si}_{1 - x} \hbox{Ge}_{x}/\hbox{Si}_{1 - y}\hbox{Ge}_{y}(x \geq y)$ CMOS Architectures

TL;DR: In this paper, an analytical model of threshold voltage for globally strained Si/SiGe CMOS devices using a dual channel architecture is proposed, and the model provides a physical insight for the variation of for both n- and p-MOSFETs in a dual-channel architecture, and it can be generalized to be applicable to single-channel devices as well.
