Understanding and control of the relevant transport mechanisms was achieved by means of local electrostatic gating and temperature-dependent measurements. The roles of the source/drain contacts and of the silicon channel could be independently evaluated and tuned. Wrap gates surrounding the silicide-silicon contact interfaces were proved to be effective in inducing a full suppression of the contact Schottky barriers, thereby enabling carrier injection down to liquid helium temperature. By independently tuning the effective Schottky barrier heights, a variety of reconfigurable device functionalities could be obtained. In particular, the same nanowire device could be configured to work as a Schottky barrier transistor, a Schottky diode, or a p-n diode with tunable polarities. This versatility was eventually exploited to realize a NAND logic gate with gain well above one.","lang":"eng"}],"volume":12,"date_updated":"2021-01-12T06:53:00Z","publist_id":"5368","type":"journal_article","extern":1,"intvolume":" 12","page":"3074 - 3079","status":"public","year":"2012","publisher":"American Chemical Society","day":"13","date_published":"2012-06-13T00:00:00Z","oa":1,"acknowledgement":"This work was supported by the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR) through the ACCESS and COHESION projects and by the European Commission through the Chemtronics program MEST-CT-2005-020513","citation":{"mla":"Mongillo, Massimo, et al. “Multifunctional Devices and Logic Gates with Undoped Silicon Nanowires.” Nano Letters, vol. 12, no. 6, American Chemical Society, 2012, pp. 3074–79, doi:10.1021/nl300930m.","ama":"Mongillo M, Spathis P, Katsaros G, Gentile P, De Franceschi S.
