Two nanodevices, nanoflash devices with double floating gates and nanowire sensors, fabricated by scanning probe lithography (SPL) technology and tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) anisotropic wet etching are demonstrated for the wide-range applications of silicon nanowires. On a (110) SOI silicon wafer, along [001] and [111] directions, a silicon nanowire was generated through local oxidation with SPL followed by wet etching with TMAH solution. Silicon nanowires (SiNW) with profiles of sidewall either sloped or vertical were formed after anisotropic etching in [001] or [111] direction respectively. After deposition of a polysilicon film on the SiNW with LPCVD,
nanostructures of a nanoflash device with polysilicon double-floating side gates were obtained along the [111] part of SiNW after RIE spacer etching. The silicon nanowire channel has width 20 nm and height 200 nm; the width of the self-aligned floating gate is approximately 40 nm. For nanosensors, selective deposition of gold nanoparticles on the surface of SiNWs pretreated with N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyl-trimethoxy silane (AEAPTMS) enables detection of molecules. An engineered enzyme, KSI-126C having a terminal thiol, was designed to bind with gold nanoparticles on the surface of SiNW. Shifts of turn-on voltage in I-Vds characteristics are clearly
observable after binding of molecules and gold nanoparticles.
Keywords: silicon nanowires, scanning probe

Flash memories have enhanced flexibility relative to read-only memories (EPROM) that are electrically programmable but erasable via ultraviolet (UV) exposure. Because of larger chip area and power consumption, electrically erasable and programmable read-only memories (EEPROM) are adopted for specific applications only. There has been much research on nanoflash devices with high density, small power consumption, and high access speed, but with the dimensions of the floating gate reaching the sub-100-nm range the fabrication process becomes difficult to control. Several fabrication technologies have been developed for floating-gate flash memories. The nanoparticle dots that are embedded in the oxide layer between a control gate and a channel act as floating memory nodes. It is easy to obtain a small floating gate, but the nanoparticles are invariably randomly deposited.1 To generate floating dots for a SOI flash memory device, Tang et al 2 made use of a rate of oxidation on silicon that varies with concentration of
doping. Choi et al. utilized atomic layer doping (ALD) to fabricate a flash memory with a side channel and a side floating gate.3 Futatsugi et al. developed a new Si single-electron memory having an ultra-small floating gate, called a floating dot, stacked on a channel with a self-aligned process; to obtain a narrow channel FET, a line pattern of chloromethyl polystyrene (CMS) resist was formed with width 70 nm and length about 200 nm using electron-beam (EB) lithography.4
Current biological sensing techniques based on electrical detection have been extensively investigated5-8). Biosensors based on electronic detection are easy to integrate and to miniaturize with current IC techniques. It offers an alternative to traditional techniques but the potential has not yet been fully explored. For example, Malaquin’s9) group combined high sensitivity, through the use of nanoscale devices that detected few molecules, with robustness and signal amplification using colloidal labeling. The principle of detection is a modification of the junction surface between two electrodes after molecular immobilization, which induces a measurable alteration of the conductance of the device. Chan’s10) group subsequently
fabricated a micro-DNA array with CMOS-compatibility by modifying the metallization process. After introduction of a double-gold amplification, the sensitivity of the DNA array was evaluated on a picomole scale. Although the sensitivity of the DNA array is still improvable with a decreasing gap between electrodes, a small gap between electrodes causes a short circuit between electrodes after silver enhancement. An electrical biosensor of another type, based on MOSFET and a FET-type charge sensor to detect a DNA sequence, is a semiconductor sensor that measures the variation of electric charge caused by immobilization of DNA on the gate metal (Au). The operating principle is explained on the basis of a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) and MOSFET 11), but the sensitivity and potential for integration are limited. The limitation of sensitivity of biosensor devices fabricated in planar
semiconductors has been recently overcome with SiNW devices12-13).
Here we described the fabrication of a nanoflash device with self-aligned double floating gates and SiNW nanosensors based on a SPL technique and anisotropic TMAH wet etching, and demonstrate the electrical properties of nanoflash devices with double-floating side gates and nanosensors. 三、Experiments
The devices are fabricated on a p-type separation by implantation of oxygen (SIMOX) wafer with silicon 75 nm thick and buried silicon dioxide 350 nm thick. After wafer cleaning, a thermally oxidized SiO2
layer 30 nm thick was formed on the sample surface. The first optical mask was then used to remove thermal oxide to define the active area of a device. Local oxidation was performed by SPL in ambient conditions using a PtIr tip to generate nano oxide patterns along [001] and [111] directions. SiNW were generated with TMAH wet etching solution. A layer of tunneling oxide of thickness 8 nm was also deposited on the SiNW. Subsequently, a polysilicon film of thickness 100 nm was deposited on the SiNW with LPCVD. Nanostructures of a nanoflash device with polysilicon double-floating side gates were obtained in the [111] part of a SiNW after RIE etching. Because sidewalls were slanted, polysilicon on the SiNW was all etched away along the [001] direction. After deposition of nitride with LPCVD as gate dielectric and an aluminum layer, both top gate and source-drain pads were defined by photolithography.
A solution of gold nanoparticles was first prepared by citrate reduction14). The stock solution consisted of hydrogen tetrachloroaurate (HAuCl4·4H2O, 0.026 g)
and DI water (40 mL), and was heated until initiation of boiling. To a trisodium citrate (C6H8O7Na3·2H2O) solution (0.1 M, 100 mL)
was added AuCl4 solution (40 mL) at the
boiling point with vigorous stirring. The solution initially developed a pale yellow
color and then turned grey; eventually it became lavender and then transformed into a dark-wine color. This solution was cooled under continuous stirring. All AuCl4 was
converted to gold particles by this method; the typical concentration of gold nanoparticles solution was from 1.3x1011 particles/cm2 to2.71x1012 particles/cm2. The diameter of gold nanoparticles is controllable in a range 5 – 15 nm with this method. These gold nanoparticles are citrate-coated with negative charge.
SiNW devices were adopted to detect molecules in our experiment. The SiNW were fabricated as follows, beginning with a wafer of p-type, (100)-oriented silicon on an insulator (SOI) that had a buried isolation oxide layer formed with implanted oxygen (SIMOX). The thickness of the silicon-on-insulator layer is 50 nm and that of the buried isolation oxide layer is 200 nm. The SOI wafer was cleaned with a standard RCA cleaning process. The silicon-on-insulator layer was then thinned by dry oxidation, to decrease the silicon thickness to 10 ~ 12 nm. The first mask was then introduced to define active areas on the oxide layer. Scanning-probe lithography was used to produce nano-oxide patterns with an etching mask in the tetramethylammonium hydroxide (25 % by mass) wet etching process to fabricate the silicon nanowires. Then a layer of oxide (thickness 8 nm) was grown on the surface of the SiNW. After a layer (thickness 500 nm) of aluminium was deposited, source-drain aluminium contact pads connected through the SiNW were defined with photolithography.
Formation of self-assembled monolayers (SAM) provides an easy route to surface functionalization15) by organic molecules containing suitable functional groups such as –SH, –CN, –COOH, –NH2
and silanes on a selected metallic or semiconducting surface. In this work we further modified the hydroxyl-terminal surface of SiNW with a silanization
procedure involving N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyl-trimethoxy
silane (AEAPTMS), which provides a surface bearing a free amino (-NH2) group
that becomes involved in a coulombic interaction with negatively charged Au nanoparticles. In the procedure for silanization and deposition of gold nanoparticles, after cleaning the SiNW in acetone and 2-methylpropan-1-ol with ultrasonic agitation, the devices were immersed in an AEAPTMS solution (2.2 mM), diluted with water, for 5 min. The commercially available silane coupling agent, AEAPTMS, was used without further purification. The samples were then dried with a nitrogen gun and baked at 120 °C for 30 min on a hotplate. The AEAPTMS-treated samples were then immersed in a solution of gold nanoparticles for 1 h. Afterwards, samples were rinsed with distilled water and dried with a nitrogen gun. The coulombic interaction between amino groups and the negatively charged surface of gold nanoparticles immobilizes the gold nanoparticles on the silane-coupler treated SiNW16). Many researchers have attempted to functionalize biomolecules such as DNA17) or protein18) with a thiol group. In
this work we engineered KSI-126C with a thiol group as a thiol terminal of a biomolecule that can readily replace the citrate ion and bind onto a surface of gold nanoparticles with covalent bonds. We then measured he electrical properties of SiNW after binding KSI-126C.
IV. Results and Discussions
Oxide patterns formed on the silicon surface by SPL served as a mask for wet etching with TMAH solution. Fig. 3(a) shows AFM and SEM images of a SiNW channel of a nanoflash device. The inset shows a SiNW of width 20 nm and height 200 nm obtained along the [111] crystal direction after TMAH wet etching. Fig.3 (b) shows a SEM image of a SiNW channel with double floating side gates fabricated after RIE polysilicon spacer etching. The tetramethylamonium ions (TMA+) from the
dissociation of TMAH apparently decrease rates of etching of high index crystallographic planes. TMA+ adsorbed on these high-index crystallographic planes and hindered access of the etching agent (OH -ions) to the surface.7 As shown in the inset of Fig. 1(a), slant planes invariably form at the bottom of a vertical channel sidewall. As shown in Fig. 1(b), floating gates formed only at the region of a vertical sidewall of a SiNW. Polysilicon coated along [001] was all etched away after RIE etching. The floating gates formed at sidewalls of a SiNW along [111] have width 40 nm and length 500nm. With a structure of double floating side gates, they are electrically coupled with the channel of a SiNW. Changes in the source or drain current due to charging/discharging (programming/erase) of floating gates are to be expected.
When electrons tunnel into floating gates (programming),the sidewalls of p-type SiNW accumulate such that the conductivity of the SiNW increases, whereas when electrons are pumped out from the floating gates (erasure), the conductivity of SiNW decreases. Figure 4(a) shows the Ids–Vds
characteristics of nanoflash memory devices when Vds was swept from 0 V to 8 V. During
programming, a bias +20 V was applied to the control gate and a bias -10 V to the drain. Programming results in electrons tunnelling from the channel to floating gates according to the Fowler-Nordheim (FN) mechanism. For erasing, a bias -20 V was applied to the control gate and a bias +10 V to the drain to pump electrons from the floating gates. As depicted in Fig. 2(a), operation window narrowing was observed in the I-V characteristics of a nanoflash device after that device was programmed and erased up to 1000 times. The duration of each program is 10 s. Operation window narrowing effect is expected to reduce if silicon nitride was replaced by the silicon oxide in the process.
When Vds was operated at 8 V, the drain
current on/off ratio is approximately 7. Fig. 2(b) shows characteristics of the nanoflash with respect to duration of program. A
decreased duration of program resulted in a decrease of tunneling electrons into the floating gate such that a smaller conductance was observed, but a difference between on/off currents is still clearly identified even with duration of programming down to 0.001 s.
Based on highly sensitive of electrical property of SiNW, we expected a variation of electrical conductance of SiNW when molecules bind to gold nanoparticles on the surface of SiNW. AEAPTMS modified the silicon dioxide layer by reacting with silanol groups to generate an amino-derivatized surface, which changed the surface potential of SiNW from negative to positive and resulted in a decreased conductance. The gold nanoparticles are bound to amino groups on the surface of SiNW subsequently, and the citrate-coated gold nanoparticles act as negative gates. Hole accumulation in SiNW is expected to cause an increased electrical conductance of p-type SiNW. Fig. 3a shows the dynamic variation of conductance as gold nanoparticles were added onto an AEAPTMS-pretreated surface of SiNW. The conductance increases sharply right after gold nanoparticles are supplied. The bias voltage on a SiNW was maintained at 500 mV during the measurement. That the conductance of SiNW became stable in 500 s after the supply of gold nanoparticles indicates that the reaction became saturated. Figure 3b shows a SEM image of gold nanoparticles anchored on a SiNW after supply of gold nanoparticles for 1 h.
Aminosilane immobilization appears to have a strong effect on the turn-on voltage of SiNW. When the turn-on current (Ids) of the
SiNW device was chosen to be 1 nA, the turn-on voltage of the SiNW shifted from –2.7 volts to –8.1 volts after modification with AEAPTMS. This shift in the turn-on voltage results from the substitution of the hydroxyl terminal with amino groups on the surface of SiNW. For p-type SiNW, the shift of the turn-on voltage occurs because of decreased charge density of a negatively charged surface on binding by AEAPTMS molecules that contain
positively charged amino groups in solution. When the gold nanoparticles were supplied and functionalized with amino groups on the surface of SiNW, the Id-Vg curve showed
another shift in turn-on voltage, from –2.7 V to –3.2 V. The reason is that gold nanoparticles bind with only amino groups and became saturated on the surface of SiNW. The gold nanoparticles with negative citrate charges on the surface of SiNW worked like a negative-gate bias, resulting in an accumulation of holes in SiNW (turn-on voltage = -3.2 V). Because of the distance effect, the impact of a negative charge field effect on the conductance of SiNW with gold nanoparticles is expected to be smaller that that of hydroxyl groups. Enzyme KSI-126C molecules with thiol terminals were supplied and bound with gold nanoparticles on the surface of SiNW. The IV curve again demonstrated a shift of turn-on voltage from -3.2 V to -0.2 V. Figure 4 shows the conductance properties. Although details of the binding of enzyme require clarification, the electrical measurements showed that more negative charges were introduced onto the surface of SiNW such that their conductance increased through the negative charge field effect. The electrical conductance measurements indicate that the field effect of SiNW is induced on binding of molecules, and nanoparticles on SiNW can be detected with great sensitivity. These electrical properties are in accordance with the polarity of charges due to surface modifications of SiNW by AEAPTMS, gold nanoparticles and KSI-126C. Details of the surface chemical structure and binding mechanism on SiNW require further clarification.
To ensure the silanization of AEAPTMS on the patterned oxide surface, surface analysis techniques like XPS and PEEM were conducted to check the Nitrogen and carbon signals. Figure 5(a) shows surface chemical structure of the sample for XPS analysis. Nitrogen can be detected on the XPS spectrum of AEAPTMS SAM on the SiO2
surface for immersion of samples in different concentration of AEAPTMS, as shown in
Fig. 5(b). Figure 5(c) shows the patterned the carbon K edge signal on the patterned SiO2 for AEAPTMS. These results support that binding of AEAPTMS on the oxide surface. V. CONCLUSIONS
A self-aligned technology for nanoflash devices with double floating gates is reported using scanning probe lithography and anisotropic wet etching. On a (110) SOI silicon wafer, along [001] and [111] directions, a silicon nanowire was generated with local oxidation by SPL followed by wet etching with tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) solution. Polysilicon self-aligned floating gates of width approximately 40 nm and length 500 nm were fabricated. Programming and erasing of the nanoflash device were performed, and an on/off current ratio up to 7 was obtained. The fabricated nanoflash device with duration of programming down to 0.001 s still demonstrated the electrical features of memory. Also, selective deposition of gold nanoparticles on an AEAPTMS-pretreated SiO2/Si surface has been demonstrated. Gold
nanoparticles deposited on the oxide surface of SiNW served as linkers to detect molecules. Silicon nanowires were fabricated with scanning-probe lithography and a TMAH wet etching process on a (100)-oriented p-type SOI wafer. These SiNW (10 μm long, 60 nm wide, and 10 nm high) were connected to the electrodes of a source and a drain. The silicon dioxide surface of SiNW was then modified with AEAPTMS into a protein-bindable environment. The silanol group becomes replaced by amino groups on AEAPTMS treatment that causes the surface potential of the SiNW to alter from negative to positive, resulting in a decreased conductance of SiNW. Furthermore, treatments of the surface of SiNW with gold nanoparticles and KSI-126C molecules resulted in shifts of turn-on voltages of SiNW, such that conductance of SiNW was modulated through the charges of bound nanoparticles and molecules. The selective deposition of
gold nanoparticles on SiNW is believed to be useful in both nanoelectronic and nanobiosensing applications.
