    Abstract: Light emitting devices employing one or more Group III-Nitride polarization junctions. A III-N polarization junction may include two III-N material layers having opposite crystal polarities. The opposing polarities may induce a two-dimensional charge carrier sheet within each of the two III-N material layers. Opposing crystal polarities may be induced through introduction of an intervening material layer between two III-N material layers. Where a light emitting structure includes a quantum well (QW) structure between two Group III-Nitride polarization junctions, a 2D electron gas (2DEG) induced at a first polarization junction and/or a 2D hole gas (2DHG) induced at a second polarization junction on either side of the QW structure may supply carriers to the QW structure. An improvement in quantum efficiency may be achieved where the intervening material layer further functions as a barrier to carrier recombination outside of the QW structure.

    Abstract: Technologies for thermoelectric enhanced cooling on an integrated circuit die are disclosed. In the illustrative embodiment, one or more components are created on a top side of an integrated circuit die, such as a power amplifier, logic circuitry, etc. The one or more components, in use, generate heat that needs to be carried away from the components. A thermoelectric cooler can be created on a back side of the die in order to facilitate removal of heat from the component. In some embodiments, additional structures such as vias filled with high-thermal-conductivity material may be used to further improve the removal of heat from the component.

    Abstract: Micro light-emitting diode (LED) displays, and fabrication and assembly of micro LED displays, are described. In an example, a pixel element for a micro-light emitting diode (LED) display panel includes a blue color nanowire or nanopyramid LED above a first nucleation layer above a substrate, the blue color nanowire or nanopyramid LED including a first GaN core. A green color nanowire or nanopyramid LED is above a second nucleation layer above the substrate, the green color nanowire or nanopyramid LED including a second GaN core. A red color nanowire or nanopyramid LED is above a third nucleation layer above the substrate, the red color nanowire or nanopyramid LED including a GaInP core.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed herein for ferroelectric-based field-effect transistors (FETs) with threshold voltage (VT) switching for enhanced RF switch transistor on-state and off-state performance. Employing a ferroelectric gate dielectric layer that can switch between two ferroelectric states enables a higher VT during the transistor off-state (VT,hi) and a lower VT during the transistor on-state (VT,lo). Accordingly, the transistor on-state resistance (Ron) can be maintained low due to the available relatively high gate overdrive (Vg,on−VT,lo) while still handling a relatively high maximum RF power in the transistor off-state due to the high VT,hi −Vg,off value. Thus, the Ron of an RF switch transistor can be improved without sacrificing maximum RF power, and/or vice versa, the maximum RF power can be improved without sacrificing the Ron. A ferroelectric layer (e.g., including HfxZryO) can be formed between a transistor gate dielectric layer and gate electrode to achieve such benefits.
