Research Abstract |
The aim of this research project is to explore the device physics of strongly correlated semiconductors. One of the major targets was the impurity effect. As a prototypical system, lightly doped Mott insulator Ca_<2-x>Na_xCuO_2Cl_2 was studied. We found a non-scale self-organization of electrons associated with doping by STM/STS and finally identified it as a checkerboard type charge ordering, which we believe is at the heart of cuprate physics including large psedo-gap phenomena. We also find nano-scale variation of electronic states around the impurities in nearly ferromagnetic ruthenates, which represents an important step to establish physics of impurity states in strongly correlated electron systems. The other major targets was fabrication of oxide device, in particular field effect transistor (FET). We have successfully fabricated SrTiO_3 perovskite FET, which shows well defined FET characteristics such as the saturation of drain current. Even better performance was achieved in another perovskite oxide KTaO_3, which showed ON/OFF rationof 1000 and the field effect mobility of 0.4 cm^2/Vsec comparable with those of organic FET. These devices can work at a cryogenic temperature as low as 2K and the presence of metallic channel was confirmed. These results opened door for FET "chemistry" of exotic transition metal oxides.
