Abstract :
We have demonstrated the advantage of using a Schottky gate contact and TiO2 nanowire (NW) high- k dielectric in MOS device and silver as the gate electrode. The glancing angle deposited TiO2 NW when used as the gate dielectric over the thin film (TF) significantly improved the electrical characteristics in terms of low Dit (4.17 × 1010 cm-2·eV-1) and low leakage current (8.8 × 10-7A/cm 2) at +1 V bias.
