The gate induced drain leakage (GIDL) effect in negative capacitance (NC) FinFET is investigated. A Landau–Ginzburg–Devonshire equation (which considers the polarization gradient in ferroelectric material) is used to estimate the characteristics of the NC FinFET. Specifically, metal-ferroelectric-metal-insulator-semiconductor (MFMIS) and metal-ferroelectric-insulator-semiconductor (MFIS) NC FinFETs are compared, in order to figure out the effect of the internal metal layer on the GIDL effect. To analyze the impact of the polarization gradient on the GIDL effect in NC FinFET, a polarization gradient coefficient is varied. For MFMIS, the polarization gradient doesn't significantly affect the device performance. The subthreshold swing improves but the GIDL effect deteriorates because of the “uniform” NC effect in channel region. For MFIS, the device performance is explicitly affected by the polarization gradient. Smaller polarization gradients result in non-uniform NC effect in channel region, resulting in severe GIDL effects. On the other hand, higher polarization gradients alleviate GIDL effects. 相似文献
In relation to a colloid stability, the adsorption structure of the Stern layer on a sessile mercury electrode in a thin liquid film of nonionic surfactant was investigated by measuring the double layer capacitance. The Stern capacitance on the electrode in the film could be detected when the measuring frequency used was low, for the resistance of the film was not extremely high but of the order of several thousand ohm. It was found that the adsorption structure of nonionic surfactant in the thin liquid film shows a stratification different from that of bulk. 相似文献
In the Ir(210)/aqueous HCl solution system the “hydrogen adsorption region” is due to the combined process of hydrogen and
chloride ion adsorption. We demonstrate that by using impedance spectroscopy the rates of, and charges associated with, hydrogen
and chloride adsorption rates can be determined separately.

Uniformly sized microparticles of poly(d,l-lactic-co-glycolic) (PLGA) acid, with controllable median diameters within the size range 40–140 μm, were successfully prepared by membrane emulsification of an oil phase injected into an aqueous phase, followed by solvent removal. Initially, simple particles were produced as an oil in water emulsion, where dichloromethane (DCM) and PLGA were the oil phase and water with stabiliser was the continuous phase. The oil was injected into the aqueous phase through an array type microporous membrane, which has very regular pores equally spaced apart, and two different pore sizes were used: 20 and 40 μm in diameter. Shear was provided at the membrane surface, causing the drops to detach, by a simple paddle stirrer rotating above the membrane. Further tests involved the production of a primary water in oil emulsion, using a mechanical homogeniser, which was then subsequently injected into a water phase through the microporous membrane to form a water in oil in water emulsion. These tests used a water-soluble model drug (blue dextran) and encapsulation efficiencies of up to 100% were obtained for concentrations of 15% PLGA dissolved in the DCM and injected through a 40 μm membrane.
Solidification of the PLGA particles was followed by removal of the DCM through the surrounding aqueous continuous phase. Different PLGA concentrations, particle size and osmotic pressures were considered in order to find their effect on encapsulation efficiency. Osmotic pressure was varied by changing the salt concentration in the external aqueous phase whilst maintaining a constant internal aqueous phase salt concentration. Osmotic pressure was found to be a significant factor on the resulting particle structure, for the tests conducted at lower PLGA concentrations (10% and 5% PLGA). The PLGA concentration and particle size distribution influence the time to complete the solidification stage and a slow solidification, formed by stirring gently overnight, provided the most monosized particles and highest encapsulation efficiency. 相似文献
