Influence of hetero-gate dielectrics on short-channel effects in scaled tunnel field-effect transistors

In this study, we examined the influence of using hetero-gate dielectrics (HGDs) on the short-channel effects (SCEs) in scaled tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs). For bulk TFETs, the short-channel performance is not influenced by the HGD engineering because the SCEs are caused by the tunneling at the region with negligible gate control. However, the use of the HGD increases the SCEs in double-gate TFETs because the HGD reduces the gate control on the channel. When the HGD optimized in term of on-current is used, the channel of HGD-TFETs is about 10-nm longer than that of uniform-gate dielectric TFETs to obtain similar SCEs. The SCEs in HGD-TFETs can be improved by locating the drain-side heterojunction toward the drain and/or increasing the ratio of low- and high-k equivalent oxide thicknesses. Due to the trend of scaling transistors, an appropriate design of HGD to minimize the SCEs in scaled HGD-TFETs is also crucial.

Two-dimensional analytical subthreshold model of graded channel DG FD SOI n-MOSFET with gate misalignment effect

A two-dimensional (2-D) analytical subthreshold model is developed for a graded channel double gate (DG) fully depleted SOI n-MOSFET incorporating a gate misalignment effect. The conformal mapping transformation (CMT) approach has been used to provide an accurate prediction of the surface potential, electric field, threshold voltage and subthreshold behavior of the device, considering the gate misalignment effect to be on both source and drain side. The model is applied to both uniformly doped (UD) and graded channel (GC) DG MOSFETs. The results of an analytical model agree well with 3-D simulated data obtained by ATLAS-3D device simulation software.     

Shrinking limits of silicon MOSFETs: numerical study of 10 nm scale devices

We have performed numerical modeling of dual-gate ballistic n-MOSFETs with channel length of the order of 10 nm, including the effects of quantum tunneling along the channel and through the gate oxide. Our analysis includes a self-consistent solution of the full (two-dimensional) electrostatic problem, with account of electric field penetration into the heavily doped electrodes. The results show that transistors with channel length as small as 8 nm can exhibit either a transconductance up to 4000 mS mm ^− 1or gate modulation of current by more than 8 orders of magnitude, depending on the gate oxide thickness. These characteristics make the devices satisfactory for logic and memory applications, respectively, although their gate threshold voltage is rather sensitive to nanometer-scale variations in the channel length.     

Quasi-two-dimensional threshold voltage model for junctionless cylindrical surrounding gate metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor with dual-material gate

Based on the quasi-two-dimensional(2D) solution of Poisson’s equation in two continuous channel regions, an analytical threshold voltage model for short-channel junctionless dual-material cylindrical surrounding-gate(JLDMCSG) metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor(MOSFET) is developed. Using the derived model, channel potential distribution, horizontal electrical field distribution, and threshold voltage roll-off of JLDMCSG MOSFET are investigated. Compared with junctionless single-material CSG(JLSGCSG) MOSFET, JLDMCSG MOSFET can effectively suppress short-channel effects and simultaneously improve carrier transport efficiency. It is also revealed that threshold voltage rolloff of JLDMCSG can be significantly reduced by adopting both a small oxide thickness and a small silicon channel radius. The model is verified by comparing its calculated results with that obtained from three-dimensional(3D) numerical device simulator ISE.     

A threshold voltage analytical model for high-k gate dielectric MOSFETs with fully overlapped lightly doped drain structures

We investigate the influence of voltage drop across the lightly doped drain(LDD) region and the built-in potential on MOSFETs,and develop a threshold voltage model for high-k gate dielectric MOSFETs with fully overlapped LDD structures by solving the two-dimensional Poisson’s equation in the silicon and gate dielectric layers.The model can predict the fringing-induced barrier lowering effect and the short channel effect.It is also valid for non-LDD MOSFETs.Based on this model,the relationship between threshold voltage roll-off and three parameters,channel length,drain voltage and gate dielectric permittivity,is investigated.Compared with the non-LDD MOSFET,the LDD MOSFET depends slightly on channel length,drain voltage,and gate dielectric permittivity.The model is verified at the end of the paper.     

Metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor using ‘oxidizedμc-Si/ultrathin oxide’ gate structure

The metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) field effect transistor (FET) using ‘oxidized μ c-Si/ultrathin oxide’ gate structure was studied. It was found that this structure shows negative differential resistance behavior, which can be explained by the Coulomb blockade effect of trapped carriers and immediate tunneling into and tunneling out with gate bias variation. The requirements for the device with this structure showing negative differential resistance behavior are based on very weak resistive coupling between floating gate and channel. They are the thinness of the tunnel oxide film, the thickness ratio of the upper oxidized film and the tunnel oxide, and the channel threshold voltage. MOSFET with this gate structure is proposed as a new negative differential resistance device.     

An analytical model for nanowire junctionless SOI Fin FETs with considering three-dimensional coupling effect

In this paper, the three-dimensional(3D) coupling effect is discussed for nanowire junctionless silicon-on-insulator(SOI) Fin FETs. With fin width decreasing from 100 nm to 7 nm, the electric field induced by the lateral gates increases and therefore the influence of back gate on the threshold voltage weakens. For a narrow and tall fin, the lateral gates mainly control the channel and therefore the effect of back gate decreases. A simple two-dimensional(2D) potential model is proposed for the subthreshold region of junctionless SOI Fin FET. TCAD simulations validate our model. It can be used to extract the threshold voltage and doping concentration. In addition, the tuning of back gate on the threshold voltage can be predicted.

A low subthreshold swing tunneling field effect transistor for next generation low power CMOS applications

We propose a low subthreshold swing transistor architecture called Negative Capacitance Single Gate Silicon-On-Insulator Tunneling Field Effect Transistor (NC-SG-SOI-TFET) and present an analytical model to characterize its performance. Electrostatic potential distribution and electric field intensity in the channel region are obtained by solving the Poisson equation, and the drain current is calculated using the band-to-band carrier generation rate. An additional layer of ferroelectric oxide is used to obtain the negative capacitance. Effect of ferroelectric oxide is incorporated using one-dimensional Landau formalism. Through two dimensional theoretical analysis, we show that the proposed device has superior performance over traditional TFETs in terms of subthreshold swing and short channel effects. For example, a subthreshold swing of 11.82 mV/decade and operating voltage of 0.65 V for a drain current of 10⁻⁸ A/µm have been obtained. The physics behind the improved performance is discussed based on the presented model. The analytical model would also be instrumental in designing and optimizing such devices avoiding complexities and cost of numerical models.

Degradation of gate-recessed MOS-HEMTs and conventional HEMTs under DC electrical stress

The performance degradation of gate-recessed metal–oxide–semiconductor high electron mobility transistor(MOSHEMT) is compared with that of conventional high electron mobility transistor(HEMT) under direct current(DC) stress,and the degradation mechanism is studied. Under the channel hot electron injection stress, the degradation of gate-recessed MOS-HEMT is more serious than that of conventional HEMT devices due to the combined effect of traps in the barrier layer, and that under the gate dielectric of the device. The threshold voltage of conventional HEMT shows a reduction under the gate electron injection stress, which is caused by the barrier layer traps trapping the injected electrons and releasing them into the channel. However, because of defects under gate dielectrics which can trap the electrons injected from gate and deplete part of the channel, the threshold voltage of gate-recessed MOS-HEMT first increases and then decreases as the conventional HEMT. The saturation phenomenon of threshold voltage degradation under high field stress verifies the existence of threshold voltage reduction effect caused by gate electron injection.

Structural characterization of Mg substituted on A/B sites in $$\hbox {NiFe}_2\hbox {O}_4$$ nanoparticles using autocombustion method

A compact quantitative model based on oxide semiconductor interface density of states (DOS) is proposed for Al_0.25Ga_0.75N/GaN metal oxide semiconductor high electron mobility transistor (MOSHEMT). Mathematical expressions for surface potential, sheet charge concentration, gate capacitance and threshold voltage have been derived. The gate capacitance behaviour is studied in terms of capacitance–voltage (CV) characteristics. Similarly, the predicted threshold voltage (V _T) is analysed by varying barrier thickness and oxide thickness. The positive V _T obtained for a very thin 3 nm AlGaN barrier layer enables the enhancement mode operation of the MOSHEMT. These devices, along with depletion mode devices, are basic constituents of cascode configuration in power electronic circuits. The expressions developed are used in conventional long-channel HEMT drain current equation and evaluated to obtain different DC characteristics. The obtained results are compared with experimental data taken from literature which show good agreement and hence endorse the proposed model.

In the present work, a two-dimensional(2D) analytical framework of triple material symmetrical gate stack(TMGS)DG-MOSFET is presented in order to subdue the short channel effects. A lightly doped channel along with triple material gate having different work functions and symmetrical gate stack structure, showcases substantial betterment in quashing short channel effects to a good extent. The device functioning amends in terms of improved exemption to threshold voltage roll-off, thereby suppressing the short channel effects. The encroachments of respective device arguments on the threshold voltage of the proposed structure are examined in detail. The significant outcomes are compared with the numerical simulation data obtained by using 2D ATLAS~(TM) device simulator to affirm and formalize the proposed device structure.
