报告内容简介：My group's general interests are in the area of semiconductor materials and devices. We focus on developing innovative structures and device concepts through both bottom-up and top-down approaches to bring lasting impact to the field of nanotechnology, electronics, and photonics; and possibly medicine. I will give a brief overview of several recent nanotechnologies developed at Illinois.

(1) I will first introduce a bottom-up growth method to realize monolithic 3D III-V HEMTs using MOCVD grown planar nanowire arrays with record f_T/f_max.

(2) I will then present an unorthodox anisotropic wet etching method, metal-assisted chemical etching (MacEtch), that enables site-controlled semiconductor nanostructure top-down fabrication with unprecedented aspect ratio and versatility. Several examples of devices uniquely enabled by MacEtch will be discussed, include ultra-high aspect ratio (40:1) InP junctionless FinFETs with excellent subthreshold slope (63 mV/dec), InGaAs nanopillar array MOSCAPs with low D_it, and Ge and Ga₂O₃ nanotextured photodiodes with enhanced responsivity.  

(3) Using a bottom-up and top-down combined approach, we have established a 3D self-rolled-up membrane (S-RuM) nanotechnology platform for extreme miniaturization of passive electronic components for radio frequency integrated circuits (RFICs) and power electronics applications. I will discuss the design, fabrication, and performance of S-RuM based inductors and transformers, as well as using S-RuM tubes as an active conformal interface to guide and accelerate neuron cell growth.
