In this paper, the subthreshold characteristics have been alanyzed using MicroTec4.0 for double gate MOSFET(DGMOSFET). The technology for characteristic analysis of device for high integration is changing rapidly. Therefore to understand characteristics of high-integrated device by computer simulation and fabricate the device having such characteristics became one of very important subjects. The oxide thickness and channel thickness in DG MOSFET determines threshold voltage and extensively influences on Ss(Subthreshold swing). We have investigated the threshold voltage and Ss(Subthreshold swing) characteristics according to variation of channel thickness from 1nm to 3nm in this study.

Double Gate MOSFETs (DG MOSFETs) with doping in one or two thin layers of an otherwise intrinsic channel are simulated to obtain the transport characteristics, threshold voltage and leakage current. Two different device structures- one with doping on two layers near the top and bottom oxide layers and another with doping on a single layer at the centre- are simulated and the variation of device parameters with a change in doping concentration and doping layer thickness is studied. It is observed that an n-doped layer in the channel reduces the threshold voltage and increases the drive current, when compared with a device of undoped channel. The reduction in the threshold voltage and increase in the drain current are found to increase with the thickness and the level of doping of the layer. The leakage current is larger than that of an undoped channel, but less than that of a uniformly doped channel. For a channel with p-doped layer, the threshold voltage increases with the level of doping and the thickness of the layer, accompanied with a reduction in drain current. The devices with doped middle layers and doped gate layers show almost identical behavior, apart from the slight difference in the drive current. The doping level and the thickness of the layers can be used as a tool to adjust the threshold voltage of the device indicating the possibility of easy fabrication of ICs having FETs of different threshold voltages, and the rest of the channel, being intrinsic having high mobility, serves to maintain high drive current in comparison with a fully doped channel.

MOEN/MO double layer which is to be used It)r the RMOS (refractory metal oxide semiconductor) gate material has been fabricated by means of low temperature reactive sputtering in N2 and Ar mixture. Good Mo2N film was obtained in the volumetric mixture of Ar:N2=95:5. The sheet resistance of the fabricated Mo7N film was about 1.20 - 1.28 ohms/square, which is about an order of magnitude lower than that of polysilicon film, and this would enable to improve the operational speed of devices fabricated with this material. When PSG (phosphorus silicate glass) was used as impurity diffusion source for the source and drain of the RMOSFET in the N2 atmosphere at about 110$0^{\circ}C$, the Mo2N was reduced to Mo resulting in much smaller sheet resistance of about 0.38 ohm/square. The threshold voltage of the RMOSFET fabricated in our experiment was - 1.5 V, and both depletion and enhancement mode RMOSFETs could be obtained.

We have analyzed channel doping and dimensions(channel length, width and thickness) for the optimum subthreshold characteristics of DG(Double Gate) MOSFET based on the model of MicroTec 4.0. Since the DGMOSFET is the candidate device to shrink short channel effects, the determination of design rule for DGMOSFET is very important to develop sub-100nm devices for high speed and low power consumption. As device size scaled down, the controllability of dimensions and oxide thickness is very low. We have analyzed the short channel effects for the variation of channel dimensions, and found the design conditions of DGMOSFET having the optimum subthreshold characteristics for digital applications.

A programmable A/D converter is designed with 8 N and P channel MOSFETs, respectively. In order to observe linear programmability of the EEPROM device during programming mode, a cell is developed with a 1.2 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ double poly CMOS fabrication process in MOSIS. It is observed that the high resolution, of say 10m Volt, is valid in the range 1.25volts to 2volts. The experimental result is used for simulating the programmable 8 bit A/D converter with Hspice. The A/D converter is demonstrated to consume low power, 37㎽ by utilizing a programming operation. In addition, the converter is attained at the conversion frequency of 333 MHz.

In this paper, the subthreshold characteristics have been alanyzed using MicroTec4.0 for double gate MOSFET(DGMOSFET). The DGMOSFET is extensively been studing since it can reduce the short channel effects due to structural characteristics. We have presented the short channel effects such as subthreshold swing and threshold voltage for DGMOSFET, using MicroTec, semiconductor simulator. We have analyzed for channel length, thickness and width to consider the structural characteristics for DGMOSFET. The subthreshold swing and threshold voltage have been analyzed for DGMOSFET using MicroTec since MicroTec is well verified as comparing with results of the numerical three dimensional models.

The changes in threshold voltage and DIBL were investigated for changes in remanent polarization P_r and coercive field E_c, which determine the characteristics of the P-E hysteresis curve of ferroelectric in NCFET (negative capacitance FET). The threshold voltage and DIBL (drain-induced barrier lowering) were observed for a junctionless double gate MOSFET using a gate oxide structure of MFMIS (metal-ferroelectric-metal-insulator-semiconductor). To obtain the threshold voltage, series-type potential distribution and second derivative method were used. As a result, it can be seen that the threshold voltage increases when P_r decreases and E_c increases, and the threshold voltage is also maintained constant when the P_r/E_c is constant. However, as the drain voltage increases, the threshold voltage changes significantly according to P_r/E_c, so the DIBL greatly changes for P_r/E_c. In other words, when P_r/E_c=15 pF/cm, DIBL showed a negative value regardless of the channel length under the conditions of ferroelectric thickness of 10 nm and SiO₂ thickness of 1 nm. The DIBL value was in the negative or positive range for the channel length when the P_r/E_c is 25 pF/cm or more under the same conditions, so the condition of DIBL=0 could be obtained. As such, the optimal condition to reduce short channel effects can be obtained since the threshold voltage and DIBL can be adjusted according to the device dimension of NCFET and the P_r and E_c of ferroelectric.
