Amplitude of Random Telegraph Noise in Junctionless FinFET with Different Channel Shape

Abstract

The influence of the channel shape in a junctionless silicon-on-insulator finned field-effect transistor (JL SOI FinFET) on the amplitude of random telegraph noise (RTN) induced by single interface trapped charge has been simulated for the transistors with rectangular, trapezoidal, and triangular fin cross sections. The simulation of the RTN amplitude distribution along the channel induced by a single charge trapped at interface defect located at the fin top and at sidewall of JL SOI FinFETs with channels of different shapes is considered. It is established that at trapping the single charge at sidewall surface of the channel, the lowest RTN amplitude is seen for the triangular cross-section and the highest for the rectangular and trapezoidal cross-sections. At the single charge trapping at the top surface of the channel, the RTN amplitude is higher for the rectangle than for the trapezoidal cross-section.

Nanoscale Dipolar Fields in Artificial Spin Ice Probed by Scanning NV Magnetometry

We investigate dipolar coupling fields in two square-lattice artificial spin ice (ASI) systems with different lattice constants using scanning probe microscopy based on a single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond. This technique offers unprecedented spatial resolution, operates under ambient condition, and provides quantitative stray field measurements, making it uniquely suited for studying nanoscale magnetic textures. Our approach combines fluorescence quenching imaging and continuous-wave optically detected magnetic resonance (cODMR). A comparison of the two ASI samples, which differ in their lattice constants of 1000 nm and 910 nm respectively, reveals differences in the appearance of ice-rule violations - deviations from the lowest energy configuration in ASI vertices. We attribute these variations to varying coupling strengths dictated by the lattice constant. From the cODMR data, we extract both axial and transverse components of the local magnetic field relative to the NV axis. Micromagnetic modeling of these measurements allows for an iterative determination of the external magnetic field orientation, the detection of subtle magnetization tilts induced by weak external fields (well below the nanomagnets' switching threshold), and an estimation of the effective saturation magnetization, thereby accounting for deviations in nanomagnet dimensions. These findings provide crucial insights into the tunable magnetic interactions in ASI, paving the way for the design of advanced magnonic and spintronic devices.

Plasmon-driven electron-hole pair formation in a non-equilibrium Fermi liquid

Collective modes in Fermi liquids are usually regarded as dissipation channels that relax electronic excitations through Landau damping. Whether such modes can instead mediate the formation of correlated electronic states under non-equilibrium conditions remains an open question. Here, we show that under optical photo-doping, a bulk plasmon can drive correlated inter-band transfer within a transient electronic continuum. Using time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (Tr-ARPES) on EuCd$_2$As$_2$ supported by electronic structure calculations, we observe that at high excitation density, plasmons transfer energy from a weakly dispersing bulk band into unoccupied surface states. This bulk-to-surface redistribution stabilizes a long-lived, energy-localized spectral feature consistent with a Mahan exciton. Our results reveal a non-equilibrium regime of Fermi-liquid physics in which collective modes do not merely dissipate energy, but also stabilize correlated bound states.

Band offsets in InP/ZnSe nanocrystals evaluated using two-photon transitions analysis

We present a semi-analytical theoretical kp-study of the energy structure and optical transitions in spherical core-shell InP/ZnSe nanocrystals. We use the eight-band Kane model and the six-band Luttinger Hamiltonian in the spherical approximation to calculate the electron and hole energy spectra, respectively. The influence of the Coulomb interaction is considered perturbatively. The one- and two-photon absorption spectra are calculated as functions of the band offsets between the InP core and ZnSe shell. Exciton states responsible for the main features in the two-photon absorption spectra of InP/ZnSe nanocrystals are identified and the spectral dependence of the linear-circular dichroism signal is predicted. We show that in the presence of inhomogeneous broadening, the transition to the ground two-photon-active exciton state can be hidden behind intense transitions to higher-lying states. A comparison of the calculated one- and two-photon absorption spectra with the available experimental data shows that, depending on the lattice strain in the InP core, the range of possible valence band offsets is 0.85-1 eV. The determined range exceeds the natural valence band offset of 0.57 eV and indicates the presence of electric dipoles formed by the preferential Zn-P bonds at the InP/ZnSe heterointerface.
