随着CMOS工艺的发展,热载流子效应对沟道热噪声的影响随着器件尺寸的降低而增大,传统热噪声模型未能准确表征沟道的热噪声.本文通过解能量平衡方程,得到电子温度表达式,并结合沟道漏电流表达式,建立了沟道热噪声模型.利用建立的电子温度表达式,该热噪声模型考虑了热载流子效应的影响,并且在计算热噪声的过程中考虑了电子温度对迁移率降低的影响以及温度梯度对热噪声的影响.通过分析与计算,结果显示,随着器件尺寸的减小,温度梯度对电子温度产生显著影响,使得热载流子效应的影响增大,热载流子效应对热噪声的增长作用超过了迁移率降低对热噪声的减小作用,最终导致热噪声增大.本文建立的沟道热噪声模型可应用于纳米尺寸金属-氧化物半导体场效应晶体管器件的噪声性能分析及建模.     

The effect of confinement on the electron thermal conductance of a nanocrystal

Coulomb blockade oscillations are found in the electron thermal conductance of a quantum dot (nanocrystal) in the regime of weak coupling with two electrode leads that is calculated within a linear response theory. An analytical expression is obtained in the quantum limit where electron level spacing is non-negligible. The effect of confinement on the electron thermal conductance is thereby explicitly shown. It is shown that in the quantum limit the periodicity of the Coulomb-blockade oscillations of the electron thermal conductance is the same as of the conductance. The shape and the magnitude of the electron thermal conductance depend explicitly on the temperature and the energy level spacing. It is found that the electron thermal conductance decreases nearly exponentially with increasing confinement and decreasing temperature.

Oblique Electron Thermal Waves in a Magnetized Plasma

Propagations of an oblique electron thermal mode under the electron plasma frequency without boundary effects are investigated experimentally and theoretically in a magnetized plasma. The phase, ray, and group velocity surfaces of the electron thermal mode are obtained in a polar coordinate. The experimental observation of the electron mode radiated from a point source is found to be in fair accord with the theoretical wave fronts which are obtained from the ray velocity surface. Wave fronts and ray trajectories of an oblique electron thermal mode radiated from a point source are numerically obtained in an inhomogeneous magnetized plasma with a use of an electrostatic kinetic theory. The spatial numerical results are indicated mainly below the electron plasma and cyclotron frequencies. Reflections of the mode in the plasma density lower than the electron plasma frequency are made clear numerically.     

Effects of Spatial Variation of Thermal Electrons on Whistler-Mode Waves in Magnetosphere

A ray-tracing method is developed to evaluate the wave growth/damping and specifically propagation trajectories of the magnetospherically reflected Whistler-mode waves. The methodology is valid for weak wave growth/damping when plasma is comprised of a cold electron population and a hot electron population, together with background neutralizing ions, e.g. protons. The effect of anisotropic thermal electrons on the propagation of Whistler-mode waves is studied in detail. Numerical results are obtained for a realistic spatial variation model of plasma population, including the cold electron density distribution, and the thermal electron density and temperature distribution. It is found that, analogous to the case of the typical cold plasma approximation, the overall ray path of Whistler-mode waves is insensitive to the thermal electron density and temperature anisotropy, and the ray path reflects where wave frequency is below or comparable to the local lower hybrid resonance frequency flhr. However, the wave growth is expected to be influenced by the thermal electron population. The results present a first detailed verification for the validity of the typical cold plasma approximation for the propagation of Whistler-mode waves and may account for the observation that the Whistler-mode waves tend to propagate on a particular magnetic shell L where the wave frequency is comparable to fthe.     

On the experimental verification of the semiconductor model of detonation

An experiment for verifying the semiconductor model of detonation is described. Within this model, the electron thermal conductivity is the decisive parameter in initiating the detonation of 1,3,5-triamino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene (TATB), a low-sensitivity explosive. The idea of the experiment is to detect an increase in the electron concentration in the conduction band and to estimate the electron thermal conductivity from the electrical conductivity of TATB compressed by shock waves of subthreshold intensity.

Photon-mediated thermal relaxation of electrons in nanostructures

Measurements of the thermal properties of nanoscale electron systems have ignored the effect of electrical noise radiated between the electron gas and the environment, through the electrical leads. Here we calculate the effect of this photon-mediated process, and show that the low-temperature thermal conductance is equal to the quantum of thermal conductance, GQ = pi2kB2T/3h, times a coupling coefficient. We find that, at very low temperatures, the photon conductance is the dominant route for thermal equilibration, while at moderate temperatures this relaxation mode adds one quantum of thermal conductance to that due to phonon transport.     

Suppression of electron temperature gradient turbulence via negative magnetic shear in NSTX

Negative magnetic shear is found to suppress electron turbulence and improve electron thermal transport for plasmas in the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX). Sufficiently negative magnetic shear results in a transition out of a stiff profile regime. Density fluctuation measurements from high-k microwave scattering are verified to be the electron temperature gradient (ETG) mode by matching measured rest frequency and linear growth rate to gyrokinetic calculations. Fluctuation suppression under negligible E×B shear conditions confirm that negative magnetic shear alone is sufficient for ETG suppression. Measured electron temperature gradients can significantly exceed ETG critical gradients with ETG mode activity reduced to intermittent bursts, while electron thermal diffusivity improves to below 0.1?electron gyro-Bohms.     

The influence of edge defects on the electrical and thermal transport of graphene nanoribbons

The electrical conductance, thermopower, thermal conductance and figure of merit of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are investigated using Green function formalism in the linear response regime. The Hamiltonian of GNR is described by the tight-binding approach and the effect of elastic interactions due to the electron–electron interaction or the thermal environmental fluctuations is considered by dephasing approach within the self-consistent Born approximation. The results show that the dephasing process leads to the reduction of the electrical transport of GNRs. Since the edge configuration of GNRs has the significant role in their electronic properties, it is shown that the electrical and thermal transports of the GNRs are decreased by the edge defects while the reduction of thermal conductance is more efficient, therefore, the thermal efficiency of GNRs is increased.

Improved two-temperature model including electron density of states effects for Au during femtosecond laser pulses

The electron temperature dependences of the electron–phonon coupling factor and electron heat capacity based on the electron density of states are investigated for precious metal Au under femtosecond laser irradiation. The thermal excitation of d band electrons is found to result in large deviations from the commonly used approximations of linear temperature dependence of the electron heat capacity, and the constant electron–phonon coupling factor. Results of the simulations performed with the two-temperature model demonstrate that the electron–phonon relaxation time becomes short for high fluence laser for Au. The satisfactory agreement between our numerical results and experimental data of threshold fluence indicates that the electron temperature dependence of the thermophysical parameters accounting for the thermal excitation of d band electrons should not be neglected under the condition that electron temperature is higher than 10⁴ K.

Local thermal conductivity of polycrystalline AlN ceramics measured by scanning thermal microscopy and complementary scanning electron microscopy techniques

The local thermal conductivity of polycrystalline aluminum nitride (AlN) ceramics is measured and imaged by using a scanning thermal microscope (SThM) and complementary scanning electron microscope (SEM) based techniques at room temperature. The quantitative thermal conductivity for the AlN sample is gained by using a SThM with a spatial resolution of sub-micrometer scale through using the 3ω method. A thermal conductivity of 308 W/m·K within grains corresponding to that of high-purity single crystal AlN is obtained. The slight differences in thermal conduction between the adjacent grains are found to result from crystallographic misorientations, as demonstrated in the electron backscattered diffraction. A much lower thermal conductivity at the grain boundary is due to impurities and defects enriched in these sites, as indicated by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy.

Characteristics of electron heat transport of plasma with an electron internal-transport barrier in the large helical device

Associated with the transition from ion root to electron root, an electron internal transport barrier (ITB) appears in the large helical device, when the heating power of electron cyclotron resonance heating exceeds the threshold power. The incremental thermal diffusivity of electron heat transport chi(inc)(e) in the ITB plasma is much lower than that in the plasma with the heating power below the threshold, and the thermal diffusivity chi(e) decreases with increasing of heating power [dchi(e)/d(P/n(e))<0] in helical ITB plasmas.
