An analysis of recent experimental data for high-performance In0.7Ga0.3As high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) is presented. Using a fully quantum mechanical, ballistic model, we simulate In0.7Ga0.3As HEMTs with gate lengths of LG = 60nm, 85, and 135 nm and compare the result to the measured I-V characteristics including draininduced barrier lowering, sub-threshold swing, and threshold voltage variation with gate insulator thickness, as well as on-current performance. To first order, devices with three different oxide thicknesses and channel lengths can all be described by our ballistic model with appropriate values of parasitic series resistance. For high gate voltages, however, the ballistic simulations consistently overestimate the measured on-current, and they do not show the experimentally observed decrease in on-current with increasing gate length. With no parasitic series resistance at all, the simulated on-current of the LG = 60 nm device is about twice the measured current. According to the simulation, the estimated ballistic carrier injection velocity for this device is about 2.7 x 10^7 cm/s. Because of the importance of the semiconductor capacitance, the simulated gate capacitance is about 2.5 times less than the insulator capacitance. Possible causes of the transconductance degradation observed under high gate voltages in these devices are also explored. In addition to a possible gate-voltage dependent scattering mechanism, the limited ability of the source to supply carriers to the channel, and the effect of nonparabolicity are likely to play a role. The drop in on-current with increasing gate length is an indication that the devices operate below the ballistic limit.

We present a novel p-GaN gate HEMT structure with reduced hole concentration near the Schottky interface by doping engineering in MOCVD, which aims at lowering the electric field across the gate. By employing an additional unintentionally doped GaN l
ayer, the gate leakage current is suppressed and the gate breakdown voltage is boosted from 10.6 to 14.6 V with negligible influence on the threshold voltage and on-resistance. Time-dependent gate breakdown measurements reveal that the maximum gate drive voltage increases from 6.2 to 10.6 V for a 10-year lifetime with a 1% gate failure rate. This method effectively expands the operating voltage margin of the p-GaN gate HEMTs without any other additional process steps.
Fundamental physical properties limiting the performance of spin field effect transistors are compared to those of ordinary (charge-based) field effect transistors. Instead of raising and lowering a barrier to current flow these spin transistors use
static spin-selective barriers and gate control of spin relaxation. The different origins of transistor action lead to distinct size dependences of the power dissipation in these transistors and permit sufficiently small spin-based transistors to surpass the performance of charge-based transistors at room temperature or above. This includes lower threshold voltages, smaller gate capacitances, reduced gate switching energies and smaller source-drain leakage currents.
We present a simple fabrication technique for lateral nanowire wrap-gate devices with high capacitive coupling and field-effect mobility. Our process uses e-beam lithography with a single resist-spinning step, and does not require chemical etching. W
e measure, in the temperature range 1.5-250 K, a subthreshold slope of 5-54 mV/decade and mobility of 2800-2500 $cm^2/Vs$ -- significantly larger than previously reported lateral wrap-gate devices. At depletion, the barrier height due to the gated region is proportional to applied wrap-gate voltage.
We report on the clear evidence of massless Dirac fermions in two-dimensional system based on III-V semiconductors. Using a gated Hall bar made on a three-layer InAs/GaSb/InAs quantum well, we restore the Landau levels fan chart by magnetotransport a
nd unequivocally demonstrate a gapless state in our sample. Measurements of cyclotron resonance at different electron concentrations directly indicate a linear band crossing at the $Gamma$ point of Brillouin zone. Analysis of experimental data within analytical Dirac-like Hamiltonian allows us not only determing velocity $v_F=1.8cdot10^5$ m/s of massless Dirac fermions but also demonstrating significant non-linear dispersion at high energies.
III-V nanowires are useful platforms for studying the electronic and mechanical properties of materials at the nanometer scale. However, the costs associated with commercial nanowire growth reactors are prohibitive for most research groups. We develo
ped hot-wall and cold-wall metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) reactors for the growth of InAs nanowires, which both use the same gas handling system. The hot-wall reactor is based on an inexpensive quartz tube furnace and yields InAs nanowires for a narrow range of operating conditions. Improvement of crystal quality and an increase in growth run to growth run reproducibility are obtained using a homebuilt UHV cold-wall reactor with a base pressure of 2 X 10$^{-9}$ Torr. A load-lock on the UHV reactor prevents the growth chamber from being exposed to atmospheric conditions during sample transfers. Nanowires grown in the cold-wall system have a low defect density, as determined using transmission electron microscopy, and exhibit field effect gating with mobilities approaching 16,000 cm$^2$(V.s).
