Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs) look like MOSFETs but have different types of the source and drain, for example P-type TFETs have n-type sources and p-type drains. The bandgap act as a tunnel barrier, and TFETs use a pn junction with the tunnel barrier modulated by gate electrostatic control. In this study, we investigated electron transport in an Al-N-doped TFET device in which Al and N were implanted into the transport channel. We observed single-electron transport through the implantation-induced atomic-size QDs embraced in TFETs. Furthermore, electron spin resonance of a single-spin was observed under continuous microwave irradiation. Also, with pulse-modulated microwave driving, Rabi oscillations as time-ensemble measurements were observed, which corresponds to the single qubit operation. These results indicate that silicon TFETs can be applied as quantum-dot devices such as single electron transistors and spin-based quantum computing devices.
