Objectives
THE TEACHING PROVIDES A DEEP KNOWLEDGE OF THE PHYSICS OF MODERN FIELD-EFFECT TRANSISTORS WITH PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THE PHENOMENA OCCURRING AT THE NANOSCALE; IT ALSO COVERS DEVICES BASED ON NANOMATERIALS.
Prerequisites
CALCULUS, ELECTROMAGNETISM, QUANTUM MECHANICS AND SOLID-STATE PHYSICS.
Contents
METAL-OXIDE-SEMICONDUCTOR FIELD-EFFECT TRANSISTOR (MOSFET). (2H)
NANOSCALE TRANSISTOR WITH BALLISTIC TRANSPORT: FROM 1D TO 2D TO BULK MOSFET. (2H)
SCALING AND THE APPEARANCE OF SHORT CHANNEL EFFECTS. (1H)
ULTRATHIN-BODY AND NANOWIRE FIELD EFFECT TRANSISTOR. (2H)
METAL-SOURCE-DRAIN FIELD-EFFECT TRANSISTOR. SCHOTTKY BARRIER MOSFET. (2H)
DEVICES BASED ON 2D MATERIALS. (1H)

Teaching Methods
TRADITIONAL LECTURES WITH THE PRESENTATION OF THE EXPERIMENTAL PHENOMENA AND THEIR THEORETICAL INTERPRETATION AND A DETAILED DERIVATION OF MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSIONS.
Verification of learning
THE ASSESSMENT OF THE LEVEL OF LEARNING REQUIRES AN ORAL DISCUSSION OF ABOUT AN HOUR. THE ORAL DISCUSSION, IN WHICH THE STUDENT IS ASKED TO DISCUSS A RANDOMLY CHOSEN SUBSET OF TOPICS, IS AIMED TO CHECK THE LEVEL OF THEORETICAL UNDERSTANDING, THE ANALYTICAL ABILITY AND THE PRESENTATION SKILLS OF THE STUDENT.
THE ASSESSMENT CONSIDERS HOW EFFECTIVE ARE THE METHODS, HOW COMPLETE AND SOUND ARE THE REPLIES AND HOW CLEAR IS THE PRESENTATION.
THE MINIMUM SCORE IS SUFFICIENT AND IS ATTRIBUTED WHEN THE STUDENT HAS A LIMITED BUT ENOUGH KNOWLEDGE OF BASIC DEVICE PHYSICS OR SHOWS INCERTITUDE IN THE APPLICATION OF THE METHODS TO EVALUATE DEVICE PARAMETERS.
THE MAXIMUM SCORE IS EXCELLENT AND IS ATTRIBUTED WHEN THE STUDENT SHOWS EXCELLENT AND COMPLETE KNOWLEDGE OF DEVICE PHYSICS, COMBINED WITH THE ABILITY TO ANALYTICALLY FORMULATE IT.
THE FINAL ASSESSMENT COMBINES THE SCORES OF THE ORAL DISCUSSION, AND IN MINOR PART, THE ATTENDANCE OF THE COURSE.
