Device Modelling of Silicon Based High-Performance Flexible Electronics

摘要

The area of flexible electronics is rapidly expanding and evolving. With applications requiring high speed and performance, ultra-thin silicon-based electronics has shown its prominence. However, the change in device response upon bending is a major concern. In absence of suitable analytical and design tool friendly model, the behavior under bent condition is hard to predict. This poses challenges to circuit designer working in the bendable electronics field, in laying out a design that can give a precise response in a stressed condition. This paper presents advances in this direction and investigates the effect of compressive and tensile stress on the performance of NMOS and PMOS transistor and a touch sensor comprising a transistor and piezoelectric capacitor.
