Influence of structural parameters on the immunity of short-channel effects in grooved-gate nMOSFET

This paper presents the influences of structural parameters on the immunity of short-channel effects in grooved-gate n-channel metal－oxide－semiconductor field effect transistor (nMOSFET) using the simulator PISCES-II. The zero or negative groove-junction depth is beneficial to the improvement of the threshold characters, but there exists a limited range. The doping concentration of both substrate and channel has a significant influence on the threshold characters as well as on the device transconductance. Thus, the variation in these adjustable parameters may help to optimize the device design.     

新型槽栅nMOSFET凹槽拐角效应的模拟研究

应用二维器件仿真程序PISCES Ⅱ，模拟计算了新型槽栅结构器件中凹槽拐角效应的影响与作用，讨论了槽栅结构MOSFET的沟道电场特征及其对热载流子效应、阈值电压特性等的影响.槽栅结构的凹槽拐角效应对抑制短沟道效应和抗热载流子效应是十分有利的，并且拐角结构在45°左右时拐角效应最大.调节拐角与其他结构参数，器件的热载流子效应、阈值电压特性、亚阈值特性、输出特性等都会有较大的变化. 关键词： 槽栅MOSFET 拐角效应 阈值电压 热载流子退化
