    The performance potential of n-type implant free In0.25Ga0.75As MOSFETs with high-κ dielectric is investigated using ensemble Monte Carlo device simulations. The implant free MOSFET concept takes advantage of the high mobility in III-V materials to allow operation at very high speed and low power. A 100 nm gate length implant free In0.25Ga0.75As MOSFET with a layer structure derived from heterojunction transistors may deliver a drive current of 1800 A/m and transconductance up to 1342 mS/mm. This implant free transistor is then scaled in the both lateral and vertical dimensions to gate lengths of 70 and 50 nm. The scaled devices exhibit continuous improvement in the drive current up to 2600 A/m and 3259 A/m and transconductance of 2076 mS/mm and 3192 mS/mm, respectively. This demonstrates the excellent scaling potential of the implant free MOSFET concept

    The performance of 300nm, 500nm and 1μm metal gate, implant free, enhancement mode III-V MOSFETs are reported. Devices are realised using a 10nm MBE grown Ga2O3/(GaxGd1-x)2O3 high-κ (κ=20) dielectric stack grown upon a δ-doped AlGaAs/InGaAs/AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure. Enhancement mode operation is maintained across the three reported gate lengths with a reduction in threshold voltage from 0.26 V to 0.08 V as the gate dimension is reduced from 1 μm to 300 nm. An increase in transconductance is also observed with reduced gate dimension. Maximum drain current of 420 μA/μm and extrinsic transconductance of 400 µS/µm are obtained from these devices. Gate leakage current of less than 100pA and subthreshold slope of 90 mV/decade were obtained for all gate lengths. These are believed to be the highest performance submicron enhancement mode III-V MOSFETs reported to date

    The first demonstration of implant-free, flatband-mode In&lt;sub&gt;0.75&lt;/sub&gt;Ga&lt;sub&gt;0.25&lt;/sub&gt;As channel n-MOSFETs is reported. These 1 &#956;m gate length MOSFETs, fabricated on a structure with average mobility of 7720 cm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;/Vs and sheet carrier concentration of 3.3&#215;10&lt;sup&gt;12&lt;/sup&gt; cm&lt;sup&gt;-22&lt;/sup&gt;, utilise a Pt gate, a high-k dielectric (k&#8776;20), and a &#948;-doped InAlAs/InGaAs/InAlAs heterostructure. The devices have a typical maximum drive current (I&lt;sub&gt;d,sat&lt;/sub&gt;) of 933 &#956;A/&#956;m, extrinsic transconductance (g&lt;sub&gt;m&lt;/sub&gt;) of 737 &#956;S/&#956;m, gate leakage (I&lt;sub&gt;g&lt;/sub&gt;) of 40 pA, and on-resistance (R&lt;sub&gt;on&lt;/sub&gt;) of 555 &#937;&#956;m. The g&lt;sub&gt;m&lt;/sub&gt; and R&lt;sub&gt;on&lt;/sub&gt; figures of merit are the best reported to date for any III-V MOSFET

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods
