Scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy of nanometer scale metallic features on silicon surfaces
Nanometer scale metals are of great interest due to their potential applications in the future of molecular/atomic scale devices. For example, nanometer scale metal contacts on semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) can determine the transport performance of SWNT based field effect …

Band Engineering of Advanced Materials for Semiconductor Devices
As the downscaling of metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) continues, the short-channel effects (SCEs) and contact resistance severely degrade device performance. It is crucial to understand the physics at various interfacial regions of MOSFETs to provide guidance for …
