Research Abstract |
In order to understand the mechanism of the nonlinear electric characteristics in the semiconductor-based three-branch nanowire junction (TBJ) device, we have developed a light-induced local conductance modulation system and characterized the device. We clarified that the non-uniform distribution of conductance inside the TBJ resulted in the nonlinear characteristics. For application of the TBJ, we designed and fabricated NAND gates and flip-flop circuits integrating the TBJ devices, and succeeded in their correct operation. We have extended the TBJ technology to other materials, such as graphene and ZnO.
