Heat loss and fin efficiency of symmetric and asymmetric trapezoidal fins with variable slope of fin's top surface are obtained by using a two-dimensional analytic method. Shapes of symmetric and asymmetric fins are changed from rectangular through trapezoidal to triangular by adjusting the fin shape factor. The ratio of symmetric trapezoidal fin length to asymmetric trapezoidal fin length is presented as a function of fin base height and convection characteristic number. The ratio of symmetric trapezoidal fin efficiency to asymmetric trapezoidal fin efficiency is presented as a function of the fin base height and fin shape factor. One of results shows that asymmetric trapezoidal fin length is shorter than symmetric trapezoidal fin length (i.e., asymmetric trapezoidal fin volume is smaller than symmetric trapezoidal fin volume) for the same heat loss when the fin base height and fin shape factor are the same.

A reversed trapezoidal fin is analyzed using a two-dimensional analytical method. Heat loss from the reversed trapezoidal fin is presented as a function of the fin shape factor, fin base thickness and the fin base height. The relationship between the fin tip length and the convection characteristic number as well as that between the fin tip length and the fin base height for equal amounts of heat loss are analyzed. Also the relationship between the fin base thickness and the fin shape factor for equal amount of heat loss is presented. One of the results shows that the heat loss decreases linearly with the increase of the fin shape factor.

Performance of the asymmetric trapezoidal fin with various upper lateral surface slopes is investigated by using the two-dimensional analytic method. For a fin base boundary condition, convection from the inner fluid to the inner wall, conduction from the inner wall to the fin base and conduction through the fin base are considered. Heat loss and fin efficiency are represented as a function of the fin base thickness, base height, inner fluid convection characteristic number, fin tip length and fin shape factor. One of the results shows that heat loss increases while fin efficiency decreases as the fin shape factor increases.

본 논문에서는 삼차원 소자 시뮬레이터(Sentaurus)를 이용하여 tri-gate FinFET의 fin과 소스/드레인 구조의 변화에 따른 소자의 성능을 분석하였다. Fin의 구조가 사각형 구조에서 삼각형 구조로 변함에 따라, fin 단면의 전위 분포의 차이로 문턱 전압이 늘어나고, off-current가 72.23% 감소하고 gate 커패시턴스는 16.01% 감소하였다. 소스/드레인 epitaxy(epi) 구조 변화에 따른 성능을 분석하기 위해, epi를 fin 위에 성장시킨 경우(grown-on-fin)와 fin을 etch 시키고 성장시킨 경우(etched-fin)의 소자 성능을 비교했다. Fin과 소스/드레인 구조의 변화가 회로에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위해 Sentaurus의 mixed-mode 시뮬레이션 기능을 사용하여 3단 ring oscillator를 구현하여 시뮬레이션 하였고, energy-delay product를 계산하여 비교하였다. 삼각형 fin에 etched 소스/드레인 epi 구조의 소자가 가장 작은 ring oscillator delay와 energy-delay product을 보였다.

위 측면 표면 기울기가 변화하는 비대칭 사다리꼴 핀의 최적화가 2차원 해석적 방법을 사용하여 수행된다. 고정된 핀 바닥 높이에 대하여 최적 열손실, 핀 길이 그리고 유용도가 내부유체 대류특성계수, 핀 바닥 두께, 핀 바닥 높이, 핀 형상계수 그리고 주위 대류특성계수의 함수로 나타내어진다. 이러한 최적화 절차를 위해서 핀으로부터의 최대 열손실 값의 95%를 최적 열손실 값으로 정의하였다. 결과 중 하나는 최적 열 손실과 유용도는 핀 형상계수의 변화에 독립적으로 보이는 반면 최적 핀 길이는 핀 형상계수가 증가함에 따라 거의 선형적으로 감소함을 보여주고 있다.

This study analyzes and optimizes a design for a trapezoidal profile straight fin using one-dimensional analytical method. The heat transfer, fin length and fin height are optimized as a function of fin volume, fin shape factor and fin base length. In this optimization, convection characteristic number over fin surface and that of fluid inside fin wall are considered. One of the results shows that the maximum heat loss increases as fin volume increases and both fin shape factor and fin base length decrease.

In this study, we analyze the impacts of the trapezoidal fin shape of a double-gate FinFET on the electrical characteristics of circuits. The trapezoidal nature of a fin body is generated by varying the angle of the sidewall of the FinFET. A technology computer-aided-design (TCAD) simulation shows that the on-state current increases, and the capacitance becomes larger, as the bottom fin width increases. Several circuit performance metrics for both digital and analog circuits, such as the fan-out 4 (FO4) delay, ring oscillator (RO) frequency, and cut-off frequency, are evaluated with mixed-mode simulations using the 3D TCAD tool. The trapezoidal nature of the FinFET results in different effects on the driving current and gate capacitance. As a result, the propagation delay of an inverter decreases as the angle increases because of the higher on-current, and the FO4 speed and RO frequency increase as the angle increases but decrease for wider angles because of the higher impact on the capacitance rather than the driving strength. Finally, the simulation reveals that the trapezoidal angle range from $10^{\circ}$ to $20^{\circ}$ is a good tradeoff between larger on-current and higher capacitance for an optimum trapezoidal FinFET shape.

A reversed trapezoidal fin with variable fin base thickness is optimized using a two-dimensional analytical method. For the fin base boundary condition, instead of a constant temperature, heat transfer from the inside fluid to the fin base is considered. Heat loss from the fin tip is not ignored. The maximum heat loss, corresponding optimum fin effectiveness, fin length and base height are presented as a function of the fin base thickness, shape factor and volume.

A geometrically asymmetric trapezoidal fin is analyzed using the one-dimensional analytic method. Heat loss and thermal resistance are represented as a function of the fin base thickness, base height, fm shape factor, inside fluid convection characteristic number, convection characteristic numbers ratio, fm length and ambient convection characteristic number. The relationship between the fin base height and the shape factor for equal amounts of heat loss is presented. One of the results shows that the variations of the fm base thickness and the inside fluid convection characteristic number give no effect on the thermal resistance.

변화되는 위 측면 기울기를 가진 비대칭 사다리꼴 핀의 온도분포가 2차원 해석적 방법을 사용하여 조사되어 진다. 이 비대칭 핀을 위해, 내부유체로부터 내벽까지의 대류, 내벽으로부터 핀 바닥까지의 전도, 그리고 핀 바닥을 통한 전도가 동시에 고려된다. 무차원 핀 길이와 높이좌표 변화에 따른 온도 형상이 보여진다. 또한 핀 아래 끝에서 온도 변화가 핀 형상계수의 함수로 나타내어진다. 핀 길이의 변화에 따라 핀 바닥을 통한 열손실과 각 면으로부터의 열손실들이 비교된다. 결과들 중 하나는 핀형상계수가 증가함에 따라 핀 아래 끝에서 온도는 선형적으로 감소함을 보여준다.
