This paper has analyzed threshold voltage movement for channel doping concentration of asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. The asymmetric DGMOSFET is generally fabricated with low doping channel and fully depleted under operation. Since impurity scattering is lessened, asymmetric DGMOSFET has the adventage that high speed operation is possible. The threshold voltage movement, one of short channel effects necessarily occurred in fine devices, is investigated for the change of channel doping concentration in asymmetric DGMOSFET. The analytical potential distribution of series form is derived from Possion's equation to obtain threshold voltage. The movement of threshold voltage is investigated for channel doping concentration with parameters of channel length, channel thickness, oxide thickness, and doping profiles. As a result, threshold voltage increases with increase of doping concentration, and that decreases with decrease of channel length. Threshold voltage increases with decrease of channel thickness and bottom gate voltage. Lastly threshold voltage increases with decrease of oxide thickness.

To make high-performance, low-power transistors beyond the technology node of 60 nm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors(C-MOSFETs) possible, the effect of electron mobility of the thickness of strained Si grown on a relaxed SiGe/SiO2/Si was investigated from the viewpoint of mobility enhancement via two approaches. First the parameters for the inter-valley phonon scattering model were optimized. Second, theoretical calculation of the electronic states of the two-fold and four-fold valleys in the strained Si inversion layer were performed, including such characteristics as the energy band diagrams, electron populations, electron concentrations, phonon scattering rate, and phonon-limited electron mobility. The electron mobility in an silicon germanium on insulator(SGOI) n-MOSFET was observed to be about 1.5 to 1.7 times higher than that of a conventional silicon on insulator(SOI) n-MOSFET over the whole range of Si thickness in the SOI structure. This trend was good consistent with our experimental results. In Particular, it was observed that when the strained Si thickness was decreased below 10 nm, the phonon-limited electron mobility in an SGOI n-MOSFT with a Si channel thickness of less than 6 nm differed significantly from that of the conventional SOI n-MOSFET. It can be attributed this difference that some electrons in the strained SGOI n-MOSFET inversion layer tunnelled into the SiGe layer, whereas carrier confinement occurred in the conventional SOI n-MOSFET. In addition, we confirmed that in the Si thickness range of from 10 nm to 3 nm the Phonon-limited electron mobility in an SGOI n-MOSFET was governed by the inter-valley Phonon scattering rate. This result indicates that a fully depleted C-MOSFET with a channel length of less than 15 m should be fabricated on an strained Si SGOI structure in order to obtain a higher drain current.
