Abstract

In the present study, transport properties and single trap phenomena in silicon nanowire (NW) field-effect transistors (FETs) are reported. The dynamic behavior of drain current in NW FETs studied before and after gamma radiation treatment deviates from the predictions of the Shockley–Read–Hall model and is explained by the concept taking into account an additional energy barrier in the accumulation regime. It is revealed that dynamics of charge exchange processes between single trap and nanowire channel strongly depend on gamma radiation treatment. The results represent potential for utilizing single trap phenomena in a number of advanced devices.
