Exchange-Induced Electron Transport in Heavily Phosphorus-Doped Si Nanowires

Abstract: Heavily phosphorus-doped silicon nanowires (Si NWs) show intriguing transport phenomena at low temperature. As we decrease the temperature, the resistivity of the Si NWs initially decreases, like metals, and starts to increase logarithmically below a resistivity minimum temperature (T(min)), which is accompanied by (i) a zero-bias dip in the differential conductance and (ii) anisotropic negative magnetoresistance (MR), depending on the angle between the applied magnetic field and current flow. These results ar… Show more

“…Weak gate modulation, the temperature dependence of the resistance and low contact resistance were observed. These characteristics confirm that the GaN NWs are highly degenerate n -type semiconductors22 (Supplementary Fig. 4), behaviour that has been explained by the presence of nitrogen vacancies and/or oxygen impurities23.…”
