IPC: H01L29/167
Filed: 2008-01-07
Abstract: " In this patent , we investigate a scheme for the control of the hyperfine interaction between a conduction electron and a P impurity nuclear spin in a symmetric metal-oxide-semiconductor structure with face-to-face gate oxide layers.  We solve Poisson's equation for the device electronics and Schrodinger's equation for the quantum states in the silicon layer by taking into account the effective mass anisotropy around each of the six degenerate minima in the silicon conduction band. We show that the double gate device provides bettre performances, in terms of bettre wavefunction amplitude modulation and consequently higher nuclear magnetic resonance frequency than in single gate devices for relatively short impurity distances from the oxide layers.
