In this volume, we have put together papers spanning a broad range from the area of modeling of strain and misfit dislocation densities, microwave absorption characteristics of nanocomposites, to X-ray diffraction studies. Specific topics in this volume include: Modeling of strain relaxation and defect dynamics in buffer layers for semiconductor devices fabricated on lattice-mismatched substrates, which enables technology for advanced computer chips, multi-junction solar cells, detectors, and microwave transistors. Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) are probabilistic circuit primitives that extract randomness from the physical characteristics of devices. One of the papers outlines PUF design based on resistor and capacitor variations for low pass filters (LoPUF). Spatial wavefunction switching (SWS) FETs, which can process 2-bits per FET using CMOS-SWS logic, thus enabling multivalued logic (MVL) and compact DRAMs. Perimeter gated single-photon avalanche diode (PGSPAD). The applied voltage at the gate terminal modulates the electric field, making it uniform throughout the junction. This gating technique is an efficient method to prevent premature edge breakdown, one of the major problems in operating avalanche photodiodes implemented in CMOS process. In summary, papers selected in this volume cover various aspects of high performance logic and circuits for high-speed electronic systems. © 2019 by World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Growth of GaN and AlGaInN nanowires using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) is investigated. It is determined that surface kinetics play an important role in non-equilibrium synthesis process such as MOCVD, in contrast to near-equilibrium synthesis by hotwall furnace reactor. Examination of crystallographic properties of GaN nanowires reveals preferential growth directions which are perpendicular to the c-axis. Such a tendency is analyzed by both thermodynamic and kinetic arguments and attributed to the minimization of (side wall) surface energy. Spontaneous formation of Al(Ga)N/GaN coaxial nanowires with distinct emission at 370 nm is observed. It is identified that the interplay between surface kinetics and thermodynamics facilitates the catalytic growth of GaN core while a limited surface diffusion of Al adatoms leads to nonselective, vapor-solid growth of Al(Ga)N sheath. The knowledge of crystallographic alignment is applied to the formation of arrayed GaN nanowires in both vertical and horizontal fashions, resulting in potentially new paradigms for creating nanoscale devices. © 2006 Materials Research Society.

We employ focused ion beam patterning of single crystal Si(100) surfaces to template the assembly of Ge(Si) nanostructure arrays. The evolution and final structures of the templated arrays are determined by combinations of transmission electron, low energy electron microscope, focused ion beam and scanning probe microscopies. It is shown how the positions of individual nanostructures may be controlled to the order of 10 nm. However, to achieve controlled spacings between elements that are in the 10 nm range requires careful matching of the characteristic lengths scales of self assembly mechanisms to the length scales of the external lithographic "forcing functions". © 2010 IOP Publishing Ltd.

Growth of ternary AlGaN nanowires using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition is investigated. Structural, chemical, and optical characterization at nanoscopic scale is carried out by high resolution transmission electron microscopy, x-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy, and spatially resolved cathodoluminescence. Spontaneous formation of Al (Ga) NGaN coaxial nanowires with distinct emission at 370 nm is observed. It is identified that the interplay between surface kinetics and thermodynamics facilitates the catalytic growth of GaN core while a limited surface diffusion of Al adatoms leads to nonselective, vapor-solid growth of Al(Ga)N sheath. The observation points to a fundamental difference in nanosynthesis using near-equilibrium and nonequilibrium techniques. © 2005 American Institute of Physics.
