Bianisotropic metasurface enables a nonlinear pseudo-diode: asymmetric second-harmonic generation

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri, Andrei Kiselev, Sergejs Boroviks

Bianisotropic metasurfaces empower planarized optical components with subwavelength thicknesses that are not amenable to conventional optics. In particular, bianisotropy gives control over the spatial dispersion and allows engineering of both spectral and ...

Analytical Modeling of Source-to-Drain Tunneling Current Down to Cryogenic Temperatures

Christian Enz, Hung-Chi Han

The subthreshold swing (SS) of MOSFETs decreases with temperature and then saturates below a critical temperature. Hopping conduction via the band tail has been proposed as the possible cause for the SS saturation. On the other hand, numerical simulations ...
