how to get high performance transistors?

The Holy Grail for transistor designers has been the requirement to be able to get high performance at reduced costs over very large substrate areas. Transistors on cheap and flexible substrates like glass and plastics are currently unable to deliver such performance and therefore do not lend themselves to seamless monolithic integration of increased electronic functions on human interface devices (displays and sensors).


At present, high performance transistors are only available in crystalline materials which are expensive and have to be attached ex-situ onto larger area substrates, which adds to the expense and complexity of system design. If both the electronics and display substrates can be integrated onto one platform, it would usher a new dawn in immersive and personal electronics. Individuals will thus be able to communicate, send and receive information of value, and access data about their current environment and health status with freedom, at leisure, and in comfort.

However, in general, the deposition of semiconductor films used to make transistors on such substrates has to be carried out at low temperatures to preserve substrate integrity. As a result, the quality of the organic or inorganic semiconductor films is severely constrained, and has a dramatic influence on the transistor performance.

Engineers now propose the use of clever transistor structure designs to overcome some of the issues with obtaining suitably low power and high speed operations in standard material systems.

In the first collaborative work with Hitachi Central Research Laboratory, Japan, researchers at the Advanced Technology Institute of the University of Surrey have experimentally and theoretically demonstrated that for transistors of disordered silicon films, superior switching performance (low leakage current, and steep sub-threshold slope) can be achieved by making the conduction channel in the transistor very thin. A higher ION/IOFF ratio, which exceeds 1011, can be achieved for devices with a 2.0-nm-thick channel. Another seminal work from the same research laboratory at Surrey, is on the newly developed source-gated transistor (SGT) concept by Professor John Shannon.

Compared to a field-effect transistor, the SGTs can operate with very short source-drain separations even with a thick gate insulator layer to achieve high speed, good stability and superior control of current uniformity, providing a significant advantage in terms of the fabrication process. Dr Xiaojun Guo, one of the lead investigators, comments: "Engineering of the transistor structure itself rather than the channel material can lead to improved device performance. It will enable the design of high-performance large area circuits and systems based on low-cost reliable material processes".

Professor Ravi Silva, Director of the Advanced Technology Institute states: "This work will help extend the already well established CMOS fabrication technologies for use in large area applications such as displays and sensors, which are at the heart of consumer electronics.

The ATI is fortunate that we have been at the forefront of two potential technologies that can lead to enhanced device performance in disordered materials by clever nano-scale structural design of disordered transistors. This type of work sponsored by the EPSRC forms the bedrock for future electronic technologies".

This research will be published in the journal 'Science', and a more detailed version of the nano-designed transistor will appear in 'IEEE Electron Device Letters'.

A cellphone base station in every home



Sprints quotAiravequot femtocell is available in select US cities.

Sprint´s "Airave" femtocell is available in select US cities.


if you've ever had trouble getting a connection for your cellphone in your home, you could soon take matters into your own hands. Instead of relying on an overworked base station, consumers may be able to have their very own base stations inside their homes.

Called "femtocells," these miniature cellphone base stations are designed to be plugged into a home broadband or cable line. Then, they connect your call via the Internet to your service provider´s network, so you pay your Internet provider instead of your cellphone carrier. If you wander away from the short-range, low-power femtocell, your call will be handed over to the local base station, like normal.

The main advantage of a femtocell is, of course, improved coverage. A handful of femtocell companies already exist, and they claim that their technology offers much better clarity than Internet call systems such as VoIP that rely on Wi-Fi, where the signal is easily obstructed.

The new gadgets - femtocells are about the size of a cable box - could have other advantages, too. They could offer a cheap connection for downloading music, video, and podcasts to iPhones and their ilk. Femtocells could also prove valuable with the increasing popularity of 3G phones, whose high-frequency signals suffer from weakening over long distances. And, since femtocells could also have their own SIM cards, they could make calls themselves, such as alerting you when another cell phone enters your home.

However, femtocell makers still have a few challenges to face before the product is ready for market. Most important is the challenge of ensuring that cell phones in the home connect to the femtocell rather than the city´s base station (the "macrocell").

Security is another issue. If femtocells become a feature in every home, the devices will have to adjust their frequencies to avoid interference with neighboring lines.

Finally, the idea of installing a mini base station inside the home will likely concern some individuals, since it´s another source of microwaves. On the other hand, femtocells will allow cell phones to work at reduced power due to their proximity, so there´s a bit of a trade-off.

In February, the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, found the technology promising, boosting the hopes of the companies that have invested heavily in femtocell research. For example, companies such as Ubiquisys and ip.access in the UK and Sprint in the US are betting that the advantages of the technology will overcome the challenges. While Sprint is already releasing heavily subsidized $50 femtocells in select US cities, other companies believe more testing is needed, and suggest a final price closer to $250.

Warner backs Sony Blu-ray format

Blu-ray's supporters have been celebrating Warner's decision
Warner Brothers is to release high definition films only in Sony's Blu-ray format, in a blow to rivals in the long-running format war.

Warner was the only major studio still releasing films both in the competing Blu-ray and HD DVD formats.

Five studios now back Blu-ray solely. Only Universal Pictures and Paramount Pictures favour HD DVD.

The backers of HD DVD deny their format is dead but admitted disappointment with the Warner decision.

Consumer choice

Walt Disney, Twentieth Century Fox, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and Sony Pictures are the other studios that only release in Blu-ray format.

Both formats deliver high definition pictures and sound and work with HD televisions, but they are not compatible with each other and neither will play on older DVD players.


Warner said it had opted for Blu-ray because 60% of its US high-definition sales last year had been in that format.

Warner Home Video will stop releasing new titles on HD DVD at the end of May.

The announcement forced a swift reaction from the HD DVD Promotional Group.

The organisation cancelled all the meetings it had scheduled with journalists at high profile Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas and called off a press conference booked for Sunday evening.

In a statement the HD DVD group said: ""While Warner's decision is a setback for HD DVD, the consumer has benefited from HD DVD's commitment to quality and affordability - a bar that is critical for the mainstream success of any format.

"We believe widespread adoption of a next generation format will ultimately be determined by the consumer," it added.

'A quick death'

Rich Greenfield at Pali Capital predicted that HD DVD would now "die a quick death" and predicted that would be good news for DVD sales.

"While we still expect overall consumer spending on DVDs to decline at least 3% in 2008, the risk of an even worse 2008 DVD environment has most likely been avoided by Warner's early 2008 decision," he said.

Toshiba, a founding partner of the HD DVD standard, denied that its format was dead, with Akiyo Ozaka, president of Toshiba America Consumer Products saying that HD DVD "has not lost".

"We were very disappointed with Warner Brothers' announcement," he admitted at CES.

But he added: "Sales of HD DVD were very good last year, especially in October to December."
