  • Abstract
    This paper presents a floating quantum dot gate nonvolatile memory device using high energy gap ZriyCdi.ySe cladded Zn¿Cdi.¿Se quantum dots (y>x) with tunneling layers comprised of nearly lattice-matched semiconductors (e.g. ZnS/ZnMgS). The quantum dots were grown on ptype silicon between the source and drain regions. The quantum dots were nucleated in a photoassisted microwave plasma (PMP) metalorganic chemical vapor deposition reactor.
