Silicon nanoparticle charge trapping memory cell
(Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2014)A charge trapping memory with 2 nm silicon nanoparticles (Si NPs) is demonstrated. A zinc oxide (ZnO) active layer is deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD), preceded by Al2O3 which acts as the gate, blocking and ... -
Silicon nanoparticles from pulsed laser ablation
(CRC Press, 2017)The research on silicon nanocrystals (SiNCs) has been considerably attractive for the scientist in the last decades due to the SiNCs’ significant size-dependent optical properties, and their potential for stimulated emission ... -
Two-nanometer laser synthesized Si-nanoparticles for low power memory applications
(Springer International Publishing, 2016)Current flash memory devices are expected to face two major challenges in the near future: density and voltage scaling. The density of the memory is related to the gate length scaling which is constrained by the gate stack, ...
