Two-dimensional electron gases in Ga-face and N-face AlGaN/GaN heterostructures grown by plasma-induced molecular beam epitaxy and metalorganic chemical vapor deposition on sapphire
We report on the growth of nominally undoped GaN/AlxGa1–xN/GaN (x<0.4) high mobility heterostructures with N-face or Ga-face polarity on sapphire substrates by plasma-induced molecular beam ep...

Onset of current self-quenching in a metal/CdS/LaS cold cathode in the presence of inelastic scattering in the CdS layer
We use an ensemble Monte-Carlo approach to analyze the importance of space-charge effects in the cathode to anode gap region of a recently proposed metal/CdS/LaS cold cathode and its influence on the ...

The low frequency noise properties of organic thin film transistors are studied here as a function of frequency and bias. Various n-channel and p-channel devices were evaluated and found to exhibit 1/f-type of noise in the 1 Hz–10 kHz range. The drain current noise is found to vary proportionally with drain current. The noise level is comparable to that found in Si metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors within the operation region of the devices, owing to the smaller drain currents in organic transistors, although the intrinsic noise is considerably higher in the organic transistors. The viability of using the organic materials in low noise circuits is demonstrated by a ring oscillator. ©2000 American Institute of Physics.
