Cover Story: The SnO2 nanosheet transistor at a 4.5 nm thickness has achieved record-high 136 cm2/Vs field-effect mobility among top-gate metal-oxide transistors, significantly better 1.5 × 108 on-current/off-current than standard silicon transistors, and fast turn-on 0.11 V/decade subthreshold slope for low power operation. This transistor was fabricated at a 350 °C temperature on amorphous SiO2 dielectric of the integrated circuit (IC), which is much lower than the typical 1000 °C for single-crystal silicon transistors. This high-performance device and the energy-saving low-temperature process are the key technologies for monolithic three-dimensional brain-mimicking ICs that have extremely large interconnect density, superior fast speed, and ultralow power consumption.
