Abstract

In this paper, we measured and simulated the transconductance change of submicron LDD NMOSFETs due to back bias under various channel length, temperature and substrate doping conditions. As back bias is increased, the mobility will decrease and g$_{m}$ decreases according to a conventional model. But as the channel length is reduced, this phenomenon is inverted and g$_{m}$ increases in the submicron region. This can be explained by analyzing the electron quasi Fermi potential in the channel. And the empirical formulae which show the g$_{m}$ change were induced. These will be helpful to enhance the efficiency and precision of IC design.esign.
