Double-diffused metal oxide power semiconductor field effect transistors are used extensively in recent years in various circuit applications. The temperature variation of the drain current at a fixed bias shows both positive and negative resistance characteristics depending on the gate threshold voltage and gate-to source bias votage. In this paper, the decision method of the gate crossover voltage by the temperature variation and a new method to determine the gate threshold voltage graphecally are presented.

In this study SOI MOSFET model of the structure with 4-terminals and 3-interfaces is proposed. An SOI MOSFET is modeled with the equivalent circuit considered the interface capacitances. Parameters of SOI MOSFET device are extracted, and the electrical characteristics due to back-bias change is simulated. In SOI-MOSFET model device we describe the characteristics of threshold voltage, subthreshold slope, maxium electrical field and drain currents in the front channel when the back channel condition move into accmulation, depletion, and inversion regions respectively.

Separate extraction of source ($R_S$) and drain ($R_D$) resistances caused by process, layout variations and long term degradation is very important in modeling and characterization of MOSFETs. In this work, we propose "Avalanche Hot-Source Method (AHSM)" for simple separated extraction of $R_S$ and $R_D$ in a single device. In AHSM, the high field region near the drain works as a new source for abundant carriers governing the current-voltage relationship in the MOSFET at high drain bias. We applied AHSM to n-channel MOSFETs as single-finger type with different channel width/length (W/L) combinations and verified its usefulness in the extraction of $R_S$ and $R_D$. We also confirmed that there is a negligible drift in the threshold voltage ($V_T$) and the subthreshold slope (SSW) even after application of the method to devices under practical conditions.

Electrical gate and drain characteristics of double heterostructure InAlAs/InGaAs pseudomorphic HEMTs have been investigated under sub-bandgap photonic excitation ($hv). Drain $(V_{DS})-,{\;}gate($V_{DS})-$, and optical power($P_{opt}$)-dependent variation of the abnormal gate leakage current and associated physical mechanisms in the PHEMTs have been characterized. Peak gate voltage ($V_{GS,P}$) and the onset voltage for the impact ionization ($V_{GS.II}$) have been extracted and empirical model for their dependence on the $V_{DS}$ and $P_{opt} have been proposed. Anomalous gate and drain current, both under dark and under sub-bandgap photonic excitation, have been modeled as a parallel connection of high performance PHEMT with a poor satellite FET as a parasitic channel. Sub-bandgap photonic characterization, as a function of the optical power with $h\nu=0.799eV$, has been comparatively combined with those under dark condition for characterizing the bell-shaped negative humps in the gate current and subthreshold drain leakage under a large drain bias.

A power amplifier operating at 3.3 V has been developed for CDMA/AMPS dual-mode cellular phones. It consists of linear GaAs power MESFET's, a new gate bias control circuit, and an output matching circuit which prevents the drain terminal of the second MESF from generating the harmonics. The relationship between the intermodulation distortion and the spectral regrowth of the power amplifier has been investigated with gate bias by using the two-tone test method and the adjacent channel leakage power ratio (ACPR) method of CDMA signals. The dissipation power of the power amplifier with a gate bias control circuit is minimized to below 1000 mW in the range of the low power levels while satisfying the ACPR of less than -26 dBc for CDMA mode. The ACPR of the power amplifier is measured to be -33 dBc at a high output power of 26 dBm.

The electrical characteristics of poly-Si TFT's with offset structure by negative bias stress are systematically investigated as a function of offset length. The changes of electrical characteristics, V$\_$th/, off-current, on/off ratio, in the offset structured poly-Si TFT's are smaller than that of the conventional structured poly-Si TFT's under the stress condition (V$\_$ds/=20V, V$\_$gs/=-20V). It is found that the hot carrier effect by negative bias stress is suppressed by the offset structured poly-Si TFT's because the local electric field near the drain region is decreased by offset region.

A novel a-Si TFT integrated gate driver circuit which suppresses the threshold voltage shift due to prolonged positive gate bias to pull-down TFTs, is reported. Negative gate-to-drain bias is applied alternately to the pull-down TFTs to recover the threshold voltage shift. Consequently, the stability of the circuit has been improved considerably.

In this paper, a LNA(Low Noise Amplifier) has been developed, which is operating at L-band i.e., 1452∼1492 MHz for satellite DAB(Digital Audio Brcadcasting) receiver. The LNA is designed to improve input and output reflection coefficient and VSWR(Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) by balanced amplifier. The LNA consists of low noise amplification stage and gain amplification stage, which make a using of GaAs FET ATF-10136 and VNA-25 respectively, and is fabricated by hybrid method. To supply most suitable voltage and current, active bias circuit is designed Active biasing offers the advantage that variations in $V_P$ and $I_{DSS}$ will not necessitate a change in either the source or drain resistor value for a given bias condition. The active bias network automatically sets $V_{gs}$ for the desired drain voltage and drain current. The LNA is fabricated on FR-4 substrate with RF circuit and bias circuit, and integrated in aluminum housing. As a reults, the characteristics of the LNA implemented more than 32 dB in gain. 0.2 dB in gain flatness. lower than 0.95 dB in noise figure, 1.28 and 1.43 each input and output VSWR, and -13 dBm in $P_{1dB}$.

In order to find suitable source and drain (S/D) electrodes for amorphous InGaZnO thin film transistors (a-IGZO TFTs), the specific contact resistance of interface between the channel layers and various S/D electrodes, such as Ti/Au, a-IZO and multilayer of a-IGZO/Ag/a-IGZO, was investigated using the transmission line model. The a-IGZO TFTs with a-IGZO/Ag/a-IGZO of S/D electrodes had good performance and low contact resistance due to the homo-junction with channel layer. The stability was measured with different electrodes by a positive bias stress test. The result shows the a-IGZO TFTs with a-IGZO/Ag/a-IGZO electrodes were more stable than other devices.

In the paper, a proposed VCO based on bondwire inductances and nMOS varactors was implemented in a standard $0.25\;{\mu}m$ CMOS process. Using the new drain current model and a propagation delay time model equations, the operation speed of CMOS gate will predict the dependence on the load capacitance and the depth of oxide, threshold voltage, the supply voltage, the channel length. This paper describes the result of simulation which calculated a gate propagation delay time by using new drain current model and a propagation delay time model. At the result, When the reverse bias voltage on the substrate changes from 0 voltage to 3 voltage, the propagation delay time is appeared the delay from 0.8 nsec to 1 nsec. When the reverse voltage is biased on the substrate, for reducing the speed delay time, a supply voltage has to reduce. The $g_m$ value of MOSFET is calculated by using new drain current model.
