Room-temperature field effect transistors with metallic ultrathin TiN-based channel prepared by atomic layer delta doping and deposition
Abstract Metallic channel transistors have been proposed as the candidate for sub-10 nm technology node. However, the conductivity modulation in metallic channels can only be observed at low temperatures usually below 100 K. In this study, room-temperature field effect and modulation of the channel...
