Although the DC performance parameters of nanosheet GAA-FETs outperforms that of nanowire GAA-FET, we find that for the same output current, stacked nanowire channels outperform a single nanosheet from a thermal management perspective with a SHE on-current degradation in the stacked nanowires of 3.01% compared to 6.42% for the nanosheet. Improving the geometrical design of a stacked nanosheet GAA-FETs by keeping the same summed channel surface area as the single nanosheet, leads to an output current improvement of 11.1% whilst also improving degradation of on-current due to SHE by almost 1%.

These sensors are compatible with commercial CMOS technology using the extended gate approach [2], structured as shown in Fig. 1, where the passivation layers are formed of 4um of polyimide, 1um SiO2 and 1um Si3N4, with the latter two inherently pH sensitive. This enables large scale integration of disposable and cheap devices. However, due to their thickness and deposition method, these layers cause attenuation between the solution and the floating gate of the ISFET, and reduce the sensitivity of the sensor to lower than the ideal Nernstian sensitivity of 59 mV/pH [2]. In this study, we aim to maximise the sensitivity by post-processing the die via Reactive Ion Etching (RIE) to controllably remove the CMOS process imposed insulation layers and determine an optimum remaining SiO2 layer thickness for sensing.

Research paper thumbnail of Spin-on-doping for output power improvement of silicon nanowire array based thermoelectric power generators

The Si NWAs used in this work are fabricated via metal assisted chemical etching (MACE) of 0.01–0.02 Ω cm resistivity n- and p-type bulk, converting ∼4% of the bulk thickness into NWs. The MACE process is adapted to ensure crystalline NWs. Current-voltage and Seebeck voltage-temperature measurements show that while SOD mainly influences the contact resistance in bulk, it influences both contact resistance and power factor in NWA-bulk based TEGs. According to our experiments, using Si NWAs in combination with SOD increases the output power by an order of 3 under the same heating power due to an increased power factor, decreased thermal conductivity of the NWA and reduced Si-Cu contact resistance.
