[0037] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0038] Example 1
[0039] See also Figure 1 , this embodiment 1 provides a structural schematic diagram of an ultra-steep subthreshold swing field transistor based on TENG, which includes: a transistor component and a TENG component.
[0040] 1. First of all, it should be noted that the transistor component is of NMOS type - when it is turned on, the current flows from the source 32 to the drain 31.
[0041] See also Figure 1 The transistor assembly includes: a substrate 10, a semiconductor layer 20, a gate dielectric layer 30, a drain electrode 31 (i.e. Figure 1 D in), source 32 (i.e. Figure 1 S in), gate.
[0042] The substrate 10, the semiconductor layer 20, the gate dielectric layer 30, and the gate are stacked in sequence. Figure 1 As shown, from top to bottom are: a gate, a gate dielectric layer 30, a semiconductor layer 20, and a substrate 10.
[0043] The drain electrode 31 and the source electrode 32 are connected to the side of the semiconductor layer 20 facing away from the substrate 10 and are separated by the gate dielectric layer 30. It should be noted that the drain electrode 31 and the source electrode 32 form an ohmic contact with the semiconductor layer 20.
[0044] The gate electrode is not in contact with the drain electrode 31 or the source electrode 32. Figure 1 As shown, the gate is lifted up by the gate dielectric layer 30 so as to avoid the drain 31 and the source 32 .
[0045] The drain 31 and the source 32 have a potential difference (generally achieved by connecting an external power supply, which serves as a working power supply for the drain 31 and the source 32. The specific connection method can be set as: the drain 31 is electrically connected to the positive pole of the external power supply, and the source 32 is electrically connected to the negative pole of the external power supply).
[0046] It should be noted that the gate electrode should be an Al electrode 33 with an Al2O3 oxide layer 34 on the surface; and the gate dielectric layer 30 should be an ion gel.
[0047] In addition, the substrate 10 can be made of insulating materials such as a glass substrate; the material of the semiconductor layer 20 is any one of indium oxide, zinc oxide, indium gallium zinc oxide, and tungsten oxide; the material of the drain 31 and the source 32 is one or more alloys of aluminum, titanium, and palladium.
[0048] 2. TENG components are used to regulate the voltage V applied to the gate G .
[0049] The TENG component includes a static friction layer 41 and a dynamic friction layer 42. The dynamic friction layer 42 is electrically connected to the source electrode 32; the static friction layer 41 is electrically connected to the gate electrode. The dynamic friction layer 42 is used to move under the action of an external force F to change the distance between the dynamic friction layer 42 and the static friction layer 41, and synchronously change V G .
[0050] The static friction layer 41 and the dynamic friction layer 42 have different electron binding capabilities; it should be noted that the greater the difference in the electron binding capabilities between the two, the better.
[0051] Considering the working principle of the TENG component, there are several ways to connect it with the transistor component:
[0052] 201. If the static friction layer 41 is an insulating material, a conductive layer 1 is provided on the side facing away from the dynamic friction layer 42; the conductive layer 1 is electrically connected to the source electrode 32 - the conductive layer 1 can be connected to the source electrode 32 through a wire, so that the static friction layer 41 and the source electrode 32 are electrically connected by using the conductive layer 1.
[0053] If the static friction layer 41 is made of a conductive material, the static friction layer 41 and the source electrode 32 may be directly connected by a wire, so that the static friction layer 41 and the source electrode 32 are electrically connected.
[0054] Of course, considering the stability of the static friction layer 41, a second substrate (which may be made of insulating materials such as a glass substrate) may be further provided to support the static friction layer 41. If the static friction layer 41 is made of insulating material, the second substrate is provided on the side of the conductive layer 1 away from the static friction layer 41; if the static friction layer 41 is made of conductive material, the second substrate is provided on the side of the static friction layer 41 away from the dynamic friction layer 42.
[0055] 202. If the dynamic friction layer 42 is an insulating material, a conductive layer 2 is provided on the side facing away from the static friction layer 41; the conductive layer 2 is electrically connected to the gate - the conductive layer 2 can be connected to the gate through a wire, so that the dynamic friction layer 42 is electrically connected to the gate by using the conductive layer 2.
[0056] If the dynamic friction layer 42 is made of a conductive material, the dynamic friction layer 42 and the gate can be directly connected by a wire, so that the dynamic friction layer 42 and the gate are electrically connected.
[0057] Similarly, considering the stability of the dynamic friction layer 42, a substrate 3 43 (which may be made of insulating materials such as a glass substrate) may be added to support the dynamic friction layer 42. If the dynamic friction layer 42 is made of insulating material, the substrate 3 43 is arranged on the side of the conductive layer 2 away from the dynamic friction layer 42; if the dynamic friction layer 42 is made of conductive material, the substrate 3 43 is arranged on the side of the dynamic friction layer 42 away from the static friction layer 41.
[0058] In this embodiment 1, the TENG component adopts the following settings:
[0059] like Figure 1 As shown, the static friction layer 41 is a conductive material, which can be any one of copper, gold, aluminum, and silver; the dynamic friction layer 42 is an insulating material, which can be any one of PTFE, PVDF, Kapton, and nylon; the material of the conductive layer 2 is any one of copper, gold, aluminum, and silver.
[0060] The working principle of the ultra-steep subthreshold swing field transistor based on TENG is explained below with an example:
[0061] In this example, substrate 10 is a glass substrate, semiconductor layer 20 is indium oxide (In2O3), gate dielectric layer 30 is ion gel, drain 31 is a copper electrode, source 32 is a copper electrode, gate is an Al electrode 33 with an Al2O3 oxide layer 34 on the surface, static friction layer 41 is a copper film, dynamic friction layer 42 is a PTFE film, and conductive layer 2 is a copper film.
[0062] Under the action of external force, the TENG component makes the dynamic friction layer 42 and the static friction layer 41 contact or separate, thereby generating an electromotive force based on the friction contact and separation; when the dynamic friction layer 42 is away from the static friction layer 41, the TENG component generates a positive electromotive force and applies it to the gate, that is, a positive voltage V is formed. G When the dynamic friction layer 42 approaches the static friction layer 41, the TENG component generates a negative electromotive force and applies it to the gate, forming a negative voltage V G .
[0063] See also Figure 2 , when V G When the voltage is positive, the Al2O3 oxide layer 34 captures positive charges and forms an additional capacitor layer C TPE ; V G , C TPE The gate dielectric layer 30 is coordinated to make the anions and cations in the gate dielectric layer 30 move locally and directional under the polarization of the electric field force to produce ion stratification; at this time, in the gate dielectric layer 30, the negative ions are gathered on the side close to the gate, and the positive ions are gathered on the side close to the semiconductor layer 20, so that the semiconductor layer 20 gathers negative charges, making the transistor component (i.e., NMOS transistor) conduct. It should be noted that the gate dielectric layer 30 forms a capacitor layer C EDL , C TPE , C EDL The capacitors are connected in series and contribute to the overall effective capacitance to achieve a subthreshold swing value close to the room temperature limit.
[0064] When V G When the voltage is negative, the Al2O3 oxide layer 34 does not capture charges; only V G The gate dielectric layer 30 is acted upon to make the cations and anions in the gate dielectric layer 30 move in a local directional manner; at this time, in the gate dielectric layer 30, positive ions are gathered on the side close to the gate electrode, and negative ions are gathered on the side close to the semiconductor layer 20, so that the gate dielectric layer 30 also produces ion stratification, and the semiconductor layer 20 gathers positive charges to cut off the transistor component (i.e., NMOS transistor).
[0065] It should be noted that in V G In the process of changing from positive voltage to negative voltage, I DS When the negative voltage threshold V 负 When super steep mutation occurs; DS represents the current flowing from the source electrode 32 to the drain electrode 31 through the semiconductor layer 20 .
[0066] Specifically, this is because the Al2O3 oxide layer 34 has an excellent positive charge capture effect, which can scan V G When (V GFrom negative voltage to positive voltage) to capture positive charge stably; while scanning V G When (V G From positive voltage to negative voltage), due to the capture of more positive charges, V G When it reaches 0, the charge cannot be neutralized, but needs to reach the negative voltage threshold V 负 , the charge is suddenly neutralized, and I Ds The scanning variation exceeds 4 orders of magnitude, making the subthreshold swing exhibit ultra-steep characteristics.
[0067] The inventors also conducted simulation verification on the ultra-steep subthreshold swing field transistor based on TENG in this example. Figure 3-Figure 6 .
[0068] like Figure 3 As shown, it shows the electrical transfer characteristic curve of this example: during the test, the potential difference between the drain 31 and the source 32 (i.e., V D ) is 100mV, for V G Perform scanning test in both positive and negative directions (make V G From -5V to +2V, from +2V to -5V), the scanning rate (ie Sweep speed) is 35mV / s.
[0069] When V G At 2 V, the ion stratification of the gate dielectric layer 30 and the negative charge accumulation of the semiconductor layer 20 reach a substantially saturated state.
[0070] The electrical transfer characteristic curve of this example has an electrochemical relaxation window, which is related to the ion type inside the ion gel. In addition, the steepness of the subthreshold swing in the reverse scanning process is significantly higher than that in the forward scanning process, proving that the V G In the process of changing from positive voltage to negative voltage, I DS Around -4V (which can be considered as V 负 =-4V) shows an ultra-steep mutation.
[0071] In addition, the subthreshold swing of the reverse scan characteristic curve is calculated to be close to the physical limit of 60mV / dec.
[0072] like Figure 4As shown, it shows the friction transfer characteristic curve of this example: during the test, the potential difference between the drain 31 and the source 32 is maintained at 100mV, and the TENG component is controlled to perform scanning tests in both positive and negative directions (the dynamic friction layer 42 moves from 1600μm away from the static friction layer 41 to the static friction layer 41, and the dynamic friction layer 42 moves from the static friction layer 41 to the static friction layer 41 away from the static friction layer 41), and the movement rate is 0.1mm / s; it can be seen that the friction transfer characteristic curve presents a counterclockwise loop feature, indicating that the TENG component can provide stable voltage drive to the transistor component.
[0073] Example 2
[0074] This embodiment 2 discloses a method for processing the ultra-steep subthreshold swing field transistor based on TENG of embodiment 1, which comprises:
[0075] Step 1: Processing transistor components and TENG components separately;
[0076] First, the processing method of transistor components:
[0077] S01, sputtering semiconductor material on one side of a substrate 10 (a cleaned glass substrate may be used) under vacuum conditions by using a mask magnetron sputtering technique to form a semiconductor layer 20.
[0078] S102, installing a source electrode 32 and a drain electrode 31 on a side of the semiconductor layer 20 facing away from the substrate 10;
[0079] An Al electrode 33 with an Al 2 O 3 oxide layer 34 on its surface is used as a gate, and an ion gel is coated on one side of the gate by screen printing to form a gate dielectric layer 30 .
[0080] The source 32, drain 31 and gate are processed by using thermal evaporation coating technology to deposit Al electrode 33, and forming the source 32, drain 31 and gate through a customized mask. The gate surface is oxidized to form an Al2O3 oxide layer 34.
[0081] The processing method of the ion gel is as follows: P(VDF-HFP), ionic liquid (including [EMI][TSFA]), and acetone in a mass ratio of 1:4:6 are mixed, heated, and stirred until they are completely dissolved to obtain the ion gel.
[0082] S103, the gate is arranged on the side of the semiconductor layer 20 away from the substrate 10, and the gate dielectric layer 30 contacts the side of the semiconductor layer 20 away from the substrate 10, and the source 32 is separated from the drain 31, and the gate is not in contact with the drain 31 and the source 32.
[0083] Secondly, the processing methods of TENG components include:
[0084] Two materials with different electron binding capabilities are selected and processed into layers, which are used as the static friction layer 41 and the dynamic friction layer 42 respectively; if necessary, any one or more of the conductive layer 1, the conductive layer 2, the substrate 2, and the substrate 3 43 are added.
[0085] Step 2: electrically connect the dynamic friction layer 42 to the source 32, electrically connect the static friction layer 41 to the gate, and apply an electromotive force to the source 32 and the drain 31 to form an ultra-steep subthreshold swing field transistor based on TENG.
[0086] Example 3
[0087] This embodiment 3 discloses the application of the ultra-steep subthreshold swing field transistor based on TENG in embodiment 1 - the ultra-steep subthreshold swing field transistor based on TENG in embodiment 1 is used as an artificial synapse; wherein the external mechanical stimulus to the artificial synapse is F; I DS Postsynaptic currents (PSCs) generated as artificial synapses.
[0088] The application of this embodiment 3 actually utilizes the relaxation effect of ion migration inside the gate dielectric layer 30 and the positive charge capture effect of the gate Al2O3 oxide layer 34 to increase the sensitivity of the device and reduce the energy consumption of the device: the ion gel can form a double electric layer with a nanometer thickness and a huge capacitance of the microfarad level; the Al2O3 oxide layer 34 has a strong positive charge capture ability; the synergistic effect of the two can regulate the carrier state of the semiconductor layer 20 at a low voltage. Then, the TENG component switches between the separation and contact states under the action of the external force F, and senses different potential pressures - this potential pressure can serve as a power source for driving the gate, and can also link the spatiotemporal information generated by the external mechanical stimulus with the output signal.
[0089] Therefore, by controlling the potential pressure parameters through TENG components, short-term plasticity or long-term plasticity of synapses can be achieved to learn memory rules and double-pulse facilitation rules; the relaxation effect of ion migration can be used to achieve excitatory and inhibitory synaptic behaviors, which has the advantages of low power consumption, high sensitivity, simple preparation method, low cost, easy implementation, safety, and environmental protection.
[0090] This Example 3 also simulates and verifies the application of the ultra-steep subthreshold swing field transistor based on TENG in Example 1. Figure 5 , Figure 6 , all indicating that the application of the ultra-steep subthreshold swing field transistor based on TENG disclosed in Example 3 is correct and reasonable.
[0091] Figure 5The PSE curve generated by the external mechanical stimulation on the artificial synapse is shown: the potential difference between the drain 31 and the source 32 is kept at 100 mV; in the initial state, the distance between the dynamic friction layer 42 and the static friction layer 41 is the initial value D0, the artificial synapse is not subjected to external mechanical stimulation (that is, the dynamic friction layer 42 and the static friction layer 41 do not have relative displacement), and the PSC is in a stable horizontal state (about 1.81×10 -4 A); when the external mechanical stimulus applies a displacement of -D to the TENG component (i.e., the dynamic friction layer 42 approaches the static friction layer 41), the TENG component generates an electromotive force and reduces the PSC to (about 1.04×10 -4 A), not only does it show great response efficiency, but the signal change is also highly similar to the postsynaptic current of biological synapses.
[0092] Figure 6 The relationship between the double-pulse facilitation index of artificial synapses and the pulse interval is demonstrated: it can be seen that as the interval between the two light pulse signals decreases, the current caused by the second pulse increases significantly, and the double-pulse facilitation index increases, which is consistent with the double-pulse facilitation behavior of biological synapses.
[0093] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be based on the attached claims.
