The key technologies adopted to restrain SCE and to improve drive ability include a 1.7nm N/O stack gate dielectric, non-CMP planarization technology, a T-type refractory W/TiN metal stack gate electrode, and a novel super steep retrograde channel doping using heavy ion implantation and a double sidewall scheme. Using these optimized key technologies, high performance 95nm metal gate CMOS devices with excellent SCE and good driving ability are fabricated. Under power supply voltages of VDS ± 1.5V and VGS± 1.8V,drive currents of 679μA/μm for nMOS and - 327μA/μm for pMOS are obtained. A subthreshold slope of 84.46mV/dec, DIBL of 34.76mV/V, and Vth of 0.26V for nMOS, and a subthreshold slope of 107.4mV/dec,DIBL of 54.46mV/V, and Vth of 0.27V for pMOS are achieved. These results show that the combined technology has indeed thoroughly eliminated the boron penetration phenomenon and polysilicon depletion effect ,effectively reduced gate tunneling leakage, and improved device reliability.展开更多

To address these challenges, this work proposes a dualfunction zinc anode protective layer, composed of Zn-Al-In layered double oxides(ILDO) by rationally designing Zn-Al layered double hydroxides(Zn-Al LDHs) for the first time. Differing from previous works on the LDHs coatings, firstly, the ILDO layer accelerates zinc-ion desolvation and also captures and anchors SO_(4)^(2-). Secondly, the in-situ formation of the Zn-In alloy phase effectively lowers the nucleation energy barrier, thereby regulating zinc nucleation. Consequently, the zinc anode with the ILDO protective layer demonstrates long-term stability exceeding 1900 h and low voltage hysteresis of 7.5 m V at 0.5 m A cm^(-2) and 0.5 m A h cm^(-2). Additionally, it significantly enhances the rate capability and cycling performance of Zn@ILDO//MnO_(2) full batteries and Zn@ILDO//activated carbon zinc-ion hybrid capacitors.This simple and effective dual-function protective layer strategy offers a promising approach for achieving high-performance zinc-ion batteries.展开更多

The films were synthesized by spraying precursor solutions through a noz-zle onto a heated alumina substrate. The precursor consisted separately of aqueous solutions of tin chloride for SnO2 and zinc chloride for ZnO for single oxide cases, and aqueous solutions of tin chloride and indium nitrate for SnO2 + In2O3 and zinc chloride and indium nitrate solutions for ZnO + In2O3 for mixed oxide cases. The substrate temperature was varied accordingly for each single and mixed case. The films produced were characterized by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy. The results indicate that a non-homogenous film is formed at low temperature for both single oxides considered. The temperature has significant effect on the composition of the synthesized films of both single oxides below 450℃. The results for mixed oxides show that the best homogeneous films are obtained for 80 wt% ZnO + 20 wt% In2O3, and 80 wt% SnO2 + 20 wt% In2O3.展开更多

In order to understanding the initial size effect of metal as a liquid fuel, we report here the impact of the thermal and electrochemical oxidation behavior of nano Sn (-100 nm), comparing with micro-sized (-5 μm) and macro-sized (4350 μm) Sn. The thermogravimetric analysis and the monitoring OCV test indicate that the distinct property of nano-sized Sn results in a favorable thermal oxidation behavior near the melting point and a promising power performance due to enhanced fuel transport to the anode.
