The concept of mobility is discussed in the case of unstrained and strained nanoscale DG MOSFET thanks to particle Monte Carlo device simulation. Without the introduction of specific scattering phenomenon for short channel devices, the…
The electron transport in the two-dimensional gas formed in tensile-strained Si1-xGex/Si/Si1-xGex heterostructures is investigated using Monte Carlo simulation. At first the electron mobility is studied in ungated modulation doped…
Aluminum nitride is a promising ultra-wide band gap semiconductor for optoelectronics and power electronics. However, its practical applications have been limited by challenges with doping and achieving high electrical conductivity. Recent…
While methods based on density-functional perturbation theory have dramatically improved our understanding of electron-phonon contributions to transport in materials, methods for accurately capturing electron-electron scattering relevant to…
A formalism for incorporating electron-phonon scattering into the nonequilibrium Green's function (NEGF) framework that is applicable to planar MOSFETs is presented. Restructuring the NEGF equations in terms of approximate summation of…
We study contact effects on electron transport across a molecular wire sandwiched between two semi-infinite (carbon) nanotube leads as a model for nanoelectrodes. Employing the Landauer scattering matrix approach we find that the…
A summary is given of a talk on the physics and technology of hybrid metallic nanostructures, with a view to metallic nanoelectronics. In the beginning of the talk it was noted that the majority of the presentations at the conference were…
The simulation of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images or diffraction patterns is often required to interpret their contrast and extract specimen features. This is especially true for high-resolution phase-contrast imaging of…

Quantum-confined semiconductor structures are the cornerstone of modern-day electronics. Spatial confinement in these structures leads to formation of discrete low-dimensional subbands. At room temperature, carriers transfer among different…
In this work, we employed non-equilibrium Green's function to investigate the electron transport properties in the nanowire with the presence of scatterings. The scattering mechanism is modelled by using the concept of B\"uttiker probe. The…
Electron transmission through nanosystems is blocked if there are no states connecting the left and the right reservoir. Electron-electron scattering can lift this blockade and we show that this feature can be conveniently implemented by…

Ideal, completely coherent quantum transport calculations had predicted that superlattice MOSFETs may offer steep subthreshold swing performance below 60mV/dec to around 39mV/dec. However, the high carrier density in the superlattice source…
