Distinct fromatalla1959stabilization The oxide and the device built on it. Atalla, Tannenbaum and Scheibner establish in 1959 that a thermally grown silicon-silicon dioxide interface gives a stable silicon surface; Kahng's 1963 patent is the field-effect device that stands on exactly that system. The MOSFET's full name in the 1960 conference title request 98 asks for -- 'silicon-silicon dioxide field induced surface devices' -- names this result in its first four words.
Distinct fromwanlass1963nanowatt The device and the logic family built from it, both 1963. Kahng's patent covers the field-effect device; this paper puts complementary pairs of them together to get logic that draws power only when switching.
