Abstract:
Field emitter arrays with split gates and methods for operating the same. A field emitter array may include one or more pairs of split gates, each connected to a corresponding voltage source, the split gates forming at least one gate hole for at least one emitter tip. Voltages, for example, AC voltages V1 and V2 may be applied to the split gates to perform one- or two-dimensional scanning or tilting depending on a ratio of V1 and V2.
Abstract:
This invention discloses novel field emitters which exhibit improved emission characteristics combined with improved emitter stability, in particular, new types of carbide or nitride based electron field emitters with desirable nanoscale, aligned and sharped-tip emitter structures.
Abstract:
A novel ferroelectric random access memory structure which comprises a capacitor consisting of upper and lower plane electrodes and a ferroelectric inserted therebetween, and a transistor comprising a means of inducing the capacitor to polarization and maintaining it, connected with at least one of the electrodes, wherein the electric potential of the upper electrode is equalized with that of the lower electrode, thereby preventing the polarization reversal caused by pyroelectric charges.
Abstract:
Nanotube assemblies and methods for manufacturing the same, including one or more protective layers. A nanotube assembly may include a substrate, a nanotube array, formed on the substrate, and a protective layer, formed on a first area of the substrate where the nanotube array is not, the protective layer reducing the formation of nanocones, and promoting the formation of nanotubes, which make up the nanotube array.

Abstract:
A ferroelectric capacitor structure variously having ceramic lower and upper electrodes, lower and upper insert layers, metal lower and upper electrodes, and a ferroelectric. The ceramic electrode(s) are variously connected with a writing terminal, and the metal electrodes are variously connected with a reading terminal. The use of a combination of metal and ceramic electrodes avoids both fatigue and leakage current.
