Lett. 98, 113305 (2011) Research Highlights Single-electron shuttle based on a silicon quantum dot K. W. Chan, M. Möttönen, A. Kemppinen, N. S. Lai, K. Y. Tan, W. H. Lim, and A. S. Dzurak The authors report on single-electron shuttling experiments with a silicon metal-oxide-semiconductor quantum dot at 300 mK. The observed results are explained by a sequential tunneling model, which suggests that the electron gas may be heated substantially by the ac driving voltage. Appl. Phys. Lett. 98, 212103 (2011) High-performance and room-temperature-processed nanofloating gate memory devices based on top-gate transparent thin-film transistors Il-Suk Kang, Young-Su Kim, Hyun-Sang Seo, Se Wan Son, Eun Ae Yoon, Seung-Ki Joo, and Chi Won Ahn In this report, the top-gate ZnO TFT-based nanofloating gate memory devices were fabricated and characterized. It was revealed that although the top-gate device had low ON-state characteristics, it had high nonvolatile memory characteristics. This reprot has a potential for fabrication of high-performance and high-reliability nonvolatile memory devices on flexible substrates because the whole device processes including the synthesis of charge-trapping layer are based on low-temperature processes. Appl. Phys. Lett. 98, 212102 (2011) Shrinking an arbitrary object as one desires using metamaterials Wei Xiang Jiang, Tie Jun Cui, Xin Mi Yang, Hui Feng Ma, and Qiang Cheng The authors report a fabricated and measured shrinking device, which can transform an arbitrary object to another virtual smaller object with the desired size and material parameters. It is also interesting that the illusion device can generate a virtual object with extreme parameters, which does not exist in nature. Metamaterials are used to realize the shrinking device.
