Physics-Based Scalable Threshold-Voltage Model for Strained-Silicon MOSFETs
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, an analytical threshold-voltage (Vt) model derived from Poisson equation for NMOS devices with a strained-silicon channel is described in terms of band, material, doping, and structure parameters and validated with Medici simulations. The model equations are derived based on bulk reference to preserve the symmetry of the model, and extended to short-channel devices based on previously-developed bulk-Si Vt model.

Analytical Model of Surface Potential and Threshold Voltage of Biaxial Strained Silicon Nmosfet including Qme
In this paper physics based analytical model for threshold voltage of nanoscale biaxial strained nMOSFET has been presented. The maximum depletion depth and surface potential in biaxial strained–Si nMOSFET is determined, taking into account both the quantum mechanical effects (QME) and effects of strain in inversion charge sheet.

متن کاملA Physics Based Model of Inversion Charge Sheet (ics) for Nanoscale Biaxial Strained – Silicon Nmosfet including Quantum Mechanical Effect (qme)
In this paper, a physics based model of inversion charge sheet of nanoscale NMOSFETs has been presented. The model is formulated for nanoscale biaxial strained silicon NMOSFET including quantum mechanical effect (QME). The QME is splitting of conduction band due to very thin oxide (tox) and very large doping concentration of ultra small geometry of MOSFET. The QME shift the inversion charge she...

We investigate the influence of space-quantization effect and poly-gate depletion on the inversion layer capacitance Cinv, total gate capacitance Ctot and threshold voltage VT in scaled Si-MOSFETs. We also present an analytical expression for the total gate capacitance Ctot that uses classical charge description and takes into account the depletion of the poly-silicon gates. Our simulation resu...
متن کاملeGaN® FET Drivers and Layout Considerations EFFICIENT POWER CONVERSION DriviNG eGaN® FETs
DriviNG eGaN® FETs When considering gate drive requirements, the three most important parameters for eGaN FETs are (1) the maximum allowable gate voltage, (2) the gate threshold voltage, and (3) the “body diode” voltage drop. The maximum allowable gate-source voltage for an eGaN FET of 6 V is low in comparison with traditional silicon. Secondly, the gate threshold is also low compared to most p...
