Transistor Lasers: Opening New Optoelectronic Frontiers

ECS Lecture:

Nanocars and Hybrid Silicon/Molecule Devices

by Milton Feng

by James M. Tour

ECS meetings bring together researchers with wideranging interests. The Sunday evening “…For the Rest of Us” lecture series is designed to inform meeting attendees about areas outside of their immediate domain and to promote discussion and cross-Society interactions. This spring’s talk is based on the work of Milton Feng and Nick Holonyak, Jr. From the form of the transistor invented by Bardeen and Brattain in 1947, they realized that the “magic” of the transistor was intrinsically in its base. It is the base that potentially offers more, particularly when they looked at the direct-gap, high-speed, high-current density heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT), and realized that the base, although thin (10-100 nm), had room for more layering (in bandgap and doping) and could be modified. Employing quantumwells (QWs) and cavity reflection, they create a transistor laser—a novel device with an electrical input, an electrical output, and an optical output. The new device is amazing in the sense of opening new frontiers in optoelectronics integration. Milton F eng is the Nick Holonyak Jr. Chair Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois at UrbanaChampaign. In 2006, his transistor laser research paper was selected as one of the top five papers in the 43 year-history of Applied Physics Letters, and also was selected as one of the top 100 most important discoveries in 2005 by Discover magazine.

Nanovehicles are a new class of molecular machines consisting of a molecular scale chassis, axles, and wheels that can roll across solid surfaces with structurally defined directions. In this talk, recent progress on the nanovehicle project is presented including the design, synthesis, and testing of a series of nanocars, nanotrucks, and motorized nanocars. Although a number of alternatives to silicon-based materials have been proposed, silicon remains the stalwart of the electronics industry. Generally, the behavior of silicon is controlled by changing the composition of the active region by impurity doping; while changing the surface (interface) states is also possible. As scaling to the sub-20 nm-size region is pursued, routine impurity doping becomes problematic due to its resultant uncertainty of distribution. Provided back-end processing of future devices could be held to temperatures that are molecularly permissive (300-350°C) and taking advantage of the dramatic increase in the surface-area-to-volumeratios of small features, it is attractive to seek controllable modulation of device performance through surface modifications. If there is no intervening oxide between the pi-rich molecules and the silicon, sequentially tuned molecularstructure changes can predictably regulate the device performances over a wide range. In this contribution, an electronically controlled series of molecules, from strong pi-electron donors to strong pi-electron acceptors, were prepared and systematically covalently attached as molecular monolayers onto the channel region of pseudo-MOSFETs (back gated), and the device modulation was studied. Changes of >2.5 V could be obtained in the threshold voltages by attaching monolayers atop the active regions of the transistors. Additionally, three-terminal field-effect transistors (FETs) were fabricated using intrinsic Si nanowires. Forming an F-terminated oxide surface

significantly decreased the resistivity, increased the mobility, and they had a large hysteresis, enabling their possible use in memory devices. James M. Tour, a synthetic organic chemist, received his Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry from Syracuse University, his PhD in synthetic organic and organometallic chemistry from Purdue University, and postdoctoral training in synthetic organic chemistry at the University of Wisconsin and Stanford University. After spending eleven years on the faculty of the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of South Carolina, he joined the Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology at Rice University in 1999 where he is presently the Chao Professor of Chemistry, Professor of Computer Science, and Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science. He is also Director of Rice University’s Carbon Nanotechnology Laboratory in the Smalley Institute for Nanoscale Science and Technology. Tour’s scientific research areas include molecular electronics, nanotubes for health applications, chemical self-assembly, conjugated oligomers, electroactive polymers, combinatorial routes to precise oligomers, polymeric sensors, flame retarding polymer additives, carbon nanotube modification and composite formation, synthesis of molecular motors and nanocars, use of the NanoKids concept for K-12 education in nanoscale science, and methods for retarding chemical terrorist attacks. Tour has about 300 research publications and 20 patents. Tour won the Arthur C. Cope Scholar Award from the American Chemical Society for his achievements in organic chemistry, to be officially awarded in 2007. He also won the Small Times magazine’s Innovator of the Year Award in 2006, the Nanotech Briefs Nano 50 Innovator Award in 2006, the Alan Berman Research Publication Award, Department of the Navy, in 2006, the Southern Chemist of the Year Award from the American Chemical Society in 2005 and The Honda Innovation Award for Nanocars in 2005. Tour is a founder of NanoComposites Inc. and he serves on the Board of Directors of Ariel Ministries. He has served as a visiting scholar at Harvard University, on the Chemical Reviews Editorial Advisory Board, California Molecular Electronics Corporation’s Technical Advisory Committee, the Governor’s Mathematics and Science Advisory Board for South Carolina, and on the Defense Science Study Group through the Institute for Defense Analyses.

demonstration of the opportunities offered by SOI propelled the development of SOI CMOS. Embedded DRAM was developed to address the memory–bottleneck issues in computing systems. Dr. Ning will describe the key milestones and reflect on the lessons learned in these events from a personal perspective. The CMOS opportunities going forward will also be discussed. Tak H. Ning received his PhD degree in physics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1971. Prior to joining IBM at T. J. Watson Research Center in 1973, he was a research assistant professor at the University of Illinois. During the early part of his IBM career, he and his colleagues made significant contributions to the understanding of hot-electron effects and electron and hole trapping in MOSFETs, including the discovery and modeling of substrate-hot-electron effects. They demonstrated the shallowemitter effect and its dependence on emitter-contact material. They invented and developed the polysilicon-emitter self-aligned bipolar transistor, which is the basis of all modern bipolar transistor technology. They also invented the substrate-plate trench-capacitor DRAM cell, which is widely used in stand-

Gordon E. Moore Medal Award Lecture:

Thirty Years of Fun and Excitement Working on Silicon Technology at IBM Research by Tak H. Ning In his 30-plus years of working at IBM Research, Tak H. Ning participated in and contributed to the rapid evolution of silicon technology. Silicon bipolar technology was revived with the introduction of the polysilicon emitter and the self-aligned polysilicon base contact. However, bipolar as a logic technology was made obsolete when sub-5 V standards were established for CMOS. In the early 1990s, recognition of the limits of CMOS scaling and

alone and embedded DRAM products. He directed and contributed to the development of submicron bipolar and CMOS technologies in IBM Research as well as led his team in exploring SOI and EEPROM devices. Dr. Ning has authored or co-authored more than 120 technical papers and 30 U.S. patents. He co-authored (with Yuan Taur) a book titled Fundamentals of Modern VLSI Devices, which has been adopted as a graduate text by many universities worldwide and translated into Japanese. He is a fellow of the American Physical Society and of the IEEE, and a member of the U.S. National Academy of Engineering. He received several awards, including the IEEE Electron Device Society 1989 J. J. Ebers Award, the IEEE 1991 Jack A. Morton Award, the 1998 Pan WenYuan Foundation (Taiwan) Outstanding Research Award, and the IEEE 2000 Custom Integrated Circuits Conference Best Paper Award. He was appointed an IBM Fellow in 1991. All meeting registrants are invited to attend the award reception honoring Tak H. Ning, recipient of the 2007 Gordon E. Moore Medal for Outstanding Achievement in Solid State Science and Technology at 1800-1845h, in the Lake Michigan Room on the 8th Floor.

Award Winners ECS Honorary Membership Gordon E. Moore cofounded Intel in 1968. He became President and Chief Executive Officer in 1975 and held that post until elected Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in 1979. He remained CEO until 1987 and was named Chairman Emeritus in 1997. Moore is widely known for “Moore’s law,” in which in 1965 he predicted that the number of transistors the industry would be able to place on a computer chip would double every year. In 1975, he updated his prediction to once every two years. While originally intended as a rule of thumb in 1965, it has become the guiding principle for the industry to deliver ever-more-powerful semiconductor chips at proportionate decreases in cost. Moore earned a BS in chemistry from the University of California at Berkeley and a PhD in chemistry and physics from the California Institute of Technology. He is a director of Gilead Meeting Program • May 6-10, 2007 • Chicago, IL

Sciences Inc., a member of the National Academy of Engineering, and a Fellow of the IEEE. Moore also serves on the Board of Trustees of the California Institute of Technology. He received the National Medal of Technology in 1990.

Adzic’s research encompasses the areas of surface electrochemistry and electrocatalysis; his findings have been published in over 200 papers. His early work focused on demonstrating the catalytic effects of metal monolayers deposited at underpotentials for a whole range of important electrocatalytic reactions. At B rookhaven Laboratory, he undertook structural studies of metal monolayers using synchrotron radiation techniques and scanning tunneling microscopy. Recently, Adzic has focused on expnding a new concept involving the reduction of the electrocatalysts to a monolayer of surface atoms by developing platinum monolayer electrocatalysts for fuel cell reactions. These are first electrocatalysts based on a monolayer of platinum with high activity and long-term fuel cell performance stability. Most recently, he reported on platinum electrocatalysts modified by gold clusters that do not dissolve under potential cycling conditions (a continuing problem in vehicular applications). Yang Kook Sun is a professor of Chemical Engineering at Hanyang University, Korea. He received his BS degree from Cheonnam National University, and his MS and PhD in chemical engineering in 1992 from Seoul National University, Korea. Prior to joining Hanyang University, Dr. Sun first started his research career at Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI), Korea, as a team leader for developing a fuel cell system. In 1996, he joined Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT), Korea, which is the central research institute of Samsung group. During 1996-2000, he was the team leader of the lithium polymer battery division and his contribution was a cornerstone for the commercialization of the lithium polymer battery of Samsung SDI. He received the “First Prize Award” from the Korea Patent Association due to his contribution on lithium ion battery commercialization at SDI in 1999. After joining Hanyang University in 2000, Sun set up one of the largest and the most active battery material research centers called ITRC in Korea. It is supported by the Ministry of Information and

Communication Republic of Korea. He also received the best teacher of the year in college of engineering at Hanyang University in 2005. Sun has published more than 160 reviewed papers and has 60 registered patents in the field of batteries and electrochemistry. His several patents have been contracted with several Korean companies and two of them are being used for commercial production. Sun’s major research interests are in synthesis and structural analysis of various transitional metal oxides, and their applications in electrochemical devices. His research group intensively focuses on the synthesis of new electrode materials for lithium ion batteries, supercapacitors, and solid oxide fuel cells. One of his pioneering research works in the lithium ion battery field is an establishment of new concept for core-shell type composite cathode materials based on lithium nickel oxide as the core and lithium nickel-manganese oxide as the shell. The core-shell-structured material provides a new approach in the development of high-performance lithium batteries with synergetic effects for advanced lithium ion batteries. Currently, he expanded his research to cover fluorine-doped, various surface modified lithium insertion materials and concentrationgradient cathode materials for advanced lithium ion batteries.
