Hello,

Can someone please describe in a few words the idea behind the VRG Mosfet?
Focusing on the Pros and Cons of the device.

Thanks!

Welcome to the PF.

Can you say where you have heard about it? Can you posts some links to more info on this type of device? What do you think are the pros and cons, and why?

I attached some article about it. the first one (named "The vertical replacement...") is the main one I'm using for my presentation.
I don't really know exactly the pros and cons, I know that there was a problem with the simple vertical Mosfet so they developed this type of transistor, I don't find enough information about this type of transistors, that's why I'm asking.

Thanks!

What kind of presentation is it? Is it for schoolwork? What year at university?

It's a presentation about the first file that I sent, it's in a course called Nano-Electronic devices, Third year in electrical engineering.

Schoolwork questions should normally be posted in the Homework Help section of the PF. I'll allow a discussion here for a bit, but only if you show a lot of effort on your part. We require students to do the bulk of the work here on the PF.

Now, The articles seem to have quite a bit of the information in them that you are asking about. You should be able to answer the questions in your first post above by reading the articles and summarizing them. Take a cut at that, and post your work here for us to check.

BTW, it looks like those papers are close to 15 years old -- do you know if the technique was ever used commercially?
 
Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
