Enhanced Ambipolarity of Semiconducting Carbon Nanotubes by Thermal Annealing for High-Performance CMOS-like Circuits
Jeong-min Lee, Ji-yoon Jung, Kang-jun Baeg
J Electr Electron Mater 2025;38(5):530-537.   Published online September 1, 2025
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4313/JEEM.2025.38.5.8
With the advancement of the information society, the demand for highly integrated and multi-functional electronic devices is rapidly increasing. To meet these demands, high-performance transistors with low power consumption, high-speed operating, and mechanical flexibility are essential. Among various candidates, semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (s-SWCNT)-based transistors, which exhibit intrinsically ambipolar characteristics, have emerged as promising components for CMOS-like circuits. In this study, s-SWCNT were selectively dispersed using rr-P3DDT, a thiophene-based conjugated polymer, and filed-effect transistors (FETs) were fabricated by inducting directional alignment for enhanced charge transport through an off-centered spin-coating process. The electrical characteristics of the fabricated s-SWCNT FETs were evaluated under various thermal annealing conditions (100℃, 150℃, 200℃, and 250℃). Off-centered spin-coated and high temperature annealed s- SWCNT FETs exhibited high field-effect mobilities over 5 cm²/Vs in both p-type and n-type operation, along with ideal Vshaped ambipolar transfer curves. These results indicate a significant enhancement in ambipolar performance due to efficient desorption of residual oxygen and water molecules in active channel via high temperature annealing. Furthermore, CMOS-like inverter circuits demonstrated an ideal inversion voltage (VIN = VDD/2) and a high voltage gain of approximately 9.5. These findings highlight the potential of SWCNT-based materials for realizing next-generation flexible electronic circuits that combine high-performance, energy efficiency, and simplified solution-processing.

Study on Multiple Post-Metallization Annealing for Enhancing the Performance and Reliability of Silicon MOSFETs
Sang-min Kang, Yu-jin Choi, Hyo-jun Park, Tae-hyun Kil, Ju-won Yeon, Moon-kwon Lee, Eui-cheol Yun, Min-woo Kim, Su-jin Jeon, Moon-seok Kim, Jun-young Park
J Korean Inst Electr Electron Mater Eng 2025;38(2):187-192.   Published online March 1, 2025
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4313/JKEM.2025.38.2.9
Post-metallization annealing (PMA) has been employed in silicon-based CMOS fabrication to enhance MOSFET reliability and performance. However, although deuterium annealing can reduce interface traps between the Si and SiO₂ gate dielectric, it remains insufficient to fully passivate these traps. In this context, a multiple PMA process, including additional hydrogen annealing, is proposed to further reduce dangling bonds. Silicon-based MOSFETs are fabricated to verify the proposed annealing process architecture. Electrical characterization of the threshold voltage (VTH), subthreshold swing (SS), on-state current (ION), and carrier mobility (μn) is conducted to investigate the impact of the multiple PMA. This study provides a guideline for PMA in MOSFET fabrication, with improvements in both performance and reliability.

A Review of Electronic Devices Based on Halide Perovskite Materials
Hyeong Gi Park, Jungyup Yang
J Korean Inst Electr Electron Mater Eng 2024;37(5):519-526.   Published online September 1, 2024
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4313/JKEM.2024.37.5.8
This review examines the use of halide perovskite materials in electronic devices, highlighting their exceptional optoelectronic properties and the challenges associated with them. Despite their potential for high-performance devices, practical applications are limited by sensitivity to environmental factors such as moisture and oxygen, etc. We discuss advances in enhancing stability and operational reliability, featuring innovative synthesis methods and device engineering strategies that help mitigate degradation. Furthermore, we explore the integration of perovskites in applications such as field-effect transistors and LEDs, emphasizing their transformative potential. This review also outlines future research directions, stressing the need for ongoing improvements in material stability and device integration to fully realize the commercial potential of perovskites.

Focused Electron Beam-Controlled Graphene Field-Effect Transistor
Songkil Kim
J Korean Inst Electr Electron Mater Eng 2020;33(5):360-366.   Published online September 1, 2020
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4313/JKEM.2021.33.5.5
Focused electron beams with high energy acceleration are versatile probes. Focused electron beams can be used for high-resolution imaging and multi-mode nanofabrication, in combination with, molecular precursor delivery, in an electron microscopy environment. A high degree of control with atomic-to-microscale resolution, a focused electron beam allows for precise engineering of a graphene-based field-effect transistor (FET). In this study, the effect of electron irradiation on a graphene FET was systematically investigated. A separate evaluation of the electron beam induced transport properties at the graphene channel and the graphene-metal contacts was conducted. This provided on-demand strategies for tuning transfer characteristics of graphene FETs by focused electron beam irradiation.

High-Mobility Ambipolar Polymer Semiconductors by Incorporation of Ionic Additives for Organic Field-Effect Transistors and Printed Electronic Circuits
Dong-hyeon Lee, Ji-hoon Moon, Jun-gu Park, Ji Yun Jung, Il-young Cho, Dong Eun Kim, Kang-jun Baeg
J Korean Inst Electr Electron Mater Eng 2018;31(3):129-134.   Published online March 1, 2018
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4313/JKEM.2018.31.3.129
Herein, we report the manufacture of high-performance, ambipolar organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) and complementary-like electronic circuitry based on a blended, polymeric, semiconducting film. Relatively high and wellbalanced electron and hole mobilities were achieved by incorporating a small amount of ionic additives. The equivalent P-channel and N-channel properties of the ambipolar OFETs enabled the manufacture of complementary-like inverter circuits with a near-ideal switching point, high gain, and good noise margins, via a simple blanket spin-coating process with no additional patterning of each active P-type and N-type semiconductor layer.

Low-Voltage Operating N-type Organic Field-Effect Transistors by Charge Injection Engineering of Polymer Semiconductors and Bi-Layered Gate Dielectrics
Ji-hoon Moon, Kang-jun Baeg
J Korean Inst Electr Electron Mater Eng 2017;30(10):665-671.   Published online October 1, 2017
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4313/JKEM.2017.30.10.665
Herein, we report the fabrication of low-voltage N-type organic field-effect transistors by using high capacitance fluorinated polymer gate dielectrics such as P(VDF-TrFE), P(VDF-TrFE-CTFE), and P(VDF-TrFE-CFE). Electronwithdrawing functional groups in PVDF-based polymers typically cause the depletion of negative charge carriers and a high contact resistance in N-channel organic semiconductors. Therefore, we incorporated intermediate layers of a low-k polymerto prevent the formation of a direct interface between PVDF-based gate insulators and the semiconducting active layer. Consequently, electron depletion is inhibited, and the high charge resistance between the semiconductor and source/drain electrodes is remarkably improved by the in corporation of solution-processed charge injection layers.
