Investigation of Energy Barrier Heights within Metal-insulator-metal Devices via Internal Photoemission Spectroscopy

Creator:: Jenkins, Melanie A.
Abstract:: Metal-insulator-metal (MIM) and dual-insulator MIM (MIIM) devices are used in rectennas, hot-electron transistors, single electron transistors, resistive random access memory (RRAM), and capacitors. The performance of these devices relies heavily on the energy barrier height at each metal-insulator interface. Thus, determination of the in-situ electron energy barrier at each interface...

Nanomechanical Characterization of Atomic Layer Deposition Coatings for Biomedical Applications

Creator:: Bauer, Nicole Lea
Abstract:: Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) is a promising technique for the production of biologically safe, wear resistant and corrosion protective coatings for orthopedic applications. In this work, the impact of coating thickness and surface preparation on the hardness (H), elastic modulus (E), wear resistance, and delamination of ALD Al2O3 films is...

Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) Process Development of Nb-doped TiO₂ as a Transparent Conducting Oxide (TCO) and ALD of HfO₂/Nb₂O₅ Bilayers as Insulating Barriers for Metal/Insulator/Insulator/Metal (MIIM) Diodes

Creator:: Lin, Shijia
Abstract:: Transparent conductive oxides (TCOs), primarily indium doped tin oxide, have been widely used in numerous fields since decades ago, such as solar cells, displays, OLEDs and ‘smart windows’ etc. Owing to the scarcity of indium, there is a great demand for new alternative materials. Metal/insulator/metal (MIM) diodes are a critical...

Fabrication of a flexible glucose sensing catheter for human implantation

Creator:: Matthews, David J.
Abstract:: Flexible electronics processing techniques were applied to integrate a glucose sensor with a hormone-delivery catheter in order to create a cheap and minimally invasive method for patients with type 1 diabetes to continually monitor and control their blood sugar levels. Ultimately, this work intends to move toward the development of...

Atomic Layer Processing for Next-Generation Microelectronic Materials

Creator:: Holden, Konner E. K.
Abstract:: Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is an enabling technique for many new micro- and nanoscale technologies. The self-limiting surface chemical reactions by which ALD fundamentally operates give rise to uniquely high precision (atomic) control over deposited film thickness, uniformity over large areas, and conformality over complex and extreme topographies. One such...

Nucleation Inhibiting Mechanisms in Atomic Layer Deposition of Nanolaminates

Creator:: Witsell, Shane Mike’ele Williama
Abstract:: Nucleation in atomic layer deposition (ALD) determines how many cycles are required to initiate growth and to form a continuous film. Nucleation has been exploited for the formation of nanoparticles, catalysts, and for area-selective ALD. Although sometimes overlooked or misrepresented in ALD reports, nucleation is also critical for multicomponent ALD...

Investigation of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) and nanolaminate barrier MIIM tunnel devices fabricated via atomic layer deposition

Creator:: Alimardani, Nasir
Abstract:: Metal-insulator-metal (MIM) tunnel devices have been proposed for high speed applications such as hot electron transistors, IR detectors, optical rectennas for IR energy harvesting, and backplanes for LCDs. The majority of these applications require highly asymmetric and non-linear current versus voltage (I-V) behavior at low applied voltages and ultra-high frequencies....

I-V Characteristics of Al/HfO2/TaN RRAM Devices

Creator:: Valdivia, Arturo H.
Abstract:: The memristor is a resistive switching random access memory (RRAM) with a basic metal/insulator/metal (MIM) structure. These nano devices are nonvolatile, have a conceptually simple crossbar device structure, are power efficient and have the capability of switching between high and low resistance states in nanoseconds making them promising to replace...

Atomic Layer Deposition of Multi-Insulator Metal-Insulator-Metal Capacitors

Creator:: Austin, Dustin Z.
Abstract:: Back end of line (BEOL) metal-insulator-metal capacitors (MIMCAPs) have become a core passive component in modern integrated circuits. International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) projections for scaling of analog/mixed-signal MIMCAP applications require simultaneously increasing capacitance density while maintaining low leakage current density and low voltage nonlinearity (characterized by the quadratic...

Development and Applications of Oxide Thin Films using Atomic Layer Deposition and Prompt Inorganic Condensation

Creator:: Smith, Sean Weston
Abstract:: In the first part of this work, thin films of Al₂O₃ deposited via atomic layer deposition (ALD) are demonstrated to improve the thermal stability of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) aerogels. ALD is a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) like method in which sequential precursor exposures and self-limited surface reactions produce a conformal...
