A capacitorless one transistor dynamic random access memory (1T-DRAM) on silicon-germanium-on-insulator substrate was investigated. SGOI technology can make high effective mobility because of lattice mismatch between the Si channel and the SiGe buffer layer. To evaluate memory characteristics of 1T-DRAM, the floating body effect is generated by impact ionization (II) and gate induced drain leakage (GIDL) current. Compared with use of impact ionization current, the use of GIDL current leads to low power consumption and larger sense margin.

This paper explores 28 nm MOSFET design for LSTP(Low Standby Power) applications using TCAD(Technology Computer Aided Design) simulation. Simulated results show that the leakage current of the MOSFET is increasingly dominated by GIDL(Gate Induced Drain Leakage) instead of a subthreshold leakage as the Source/Drain extension doping increases. The GIDL current can be reduced by grading lateral abruptness of the drain at the expense of a higher Source/Drain series resistance. For 28 nm MOSFET suggested in ITRS, we have shown Source/Drain design becomes even more critical to meet both leakage current and performance requirement.

The impact of hot carrier induced gate leakage current on the refresh time of memory devices has been examined. The maximum allowable supply voltage for cell transistor has been determined form the degradation of the refresh time. The desing guideline for cell capacitors and refresh circuits has been suggested.

In this work, reliable methodology for device design is presented. Based on this method, the underlap length has been optimized for minimizing the gateinduced drain leakage (GIDL) in a 22-nm node 4-terminal (4-T) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) fin-shaped field effect transistor (FinFET) by TCAD simulation. In order to examine the effects of underlap length on GIDL more realistically, doping profile of the source and drain (S/D) junctions, carrier lifetimes, and the parameters for a band-to-band tunneling (BTBT) model have been experimentally extracted from the devices of 90-nm channel length as well as pnjunction test element groups (TEGs). It was confirmed that the underlap length should be near 15 nm to suppress GIDL effectively for reliable low standby power (LSTP) operation.

We fabricated fully depleted (FD) SOI-based 1T-DRAM cells with planar channel or recessed channel and the electrical characteristics were investigated. In particular, the dependence of memory operating mode on the channel structure of 1T-DRAM cells was evaluated. As a result, the gate induced drain leakage current (GIDL) mode showed a better memory property for planar type 1T-DRAM. On the other hand, the impact ionization (II) mode is more effective for recessed type.

The drain current of the MOSFET in the off state(i.e., Id when Vgs=0V) is undesired but nevertheless important leakage current device parameter in many digital CMOS IC applications (including DRAMs, SRAMs, dynamic logic circuits, and portable systems). The standby power consumed by devices in the off state have added to the total power consumed by the IC, increasing heat dissipation problems in the chip. In this paper, hot-carrier-induced degra- dation and gate-induced-drain-leakage curr- ent under worse case in P-MOSFET\`s have been studied. First of all, the degradation of gate-induced- drain-leakage current due to electron/hole trapping and surface electric field in off state MOSFET\`s which has appeared as an additional constraint in scaling down p-MOSFET\`s. The GIDL current in p-MOSFET\`s was decreased by hot-electron stressing, because the trapped charge were decreased surface-electric-field. But the GIDL current in n-MOS77T\`s under worse case was increased.

본 논문은 3차원 낸드 플래쉬 기억 소자에 적용을 위해 소노스(SONOS) 형태로 기억 저장 절연막을 채용하고 채널로 폴리실리콘을 사용한 박막형 트랜지스터에 대해 연구하였다. 셀의 source/drain에는 불순물을 주입 하지 않았고, 셀 양 끝단에는 선택 트랜지스터를 배치하였다. 셀의 채널과 선택 트랜지스터의 source/drain 불순물 농도 변화에 대한 평가를 진행하여 공정 최적화를 하였다. 선택 트랜지스터의 농도 증가 시 채널 전류의 상승 및 삭제특성이 개선됨을 확인 하였는데 이는 GIDL에 의한 홀 생성이 증가하였기 때문이다. 최적화된 공정 변수에 대해 삭제와 쓰기 후 문턱전압의 프로그램 윈도우는 대략 2.5V를 얻었다. 터널 산화막 공정 온도에 대한 평가 결과 온도 증가 시 swing 및 신뢰성 항목인 bake 결과가 개선됨을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we investigated an anomalous hump phenomenon under the positive bias stress in p-type LTPS TFTs. The devices with inferior electrical performance also show larger hump phenomenon. which can be explained by the sub-channel induced from trapped electrons under thinner gate oxide region. We can confirm that the devices with larger hump have larger interface trap density ($D_{it}$) and grain boundary trap density ($N_{trap}$) extracted by low-high frequency capacitance method and Levinson-Proano method, respectively. From the C-V with I-V transfer characteristics, the trapped electrons causing hump seem to be generated particularly from the S/D and gate overlapped region. Based on these analysis, the major cause of an anomalous hump phenomenon under the positive bias stress in p-type poly-Si TFTs is explained by the GIDL occurring in the S/D and gate overlapped region and the traps existing in the channel edge region where the gate oxide becomes thinner, which can be inferred by the fact that the magnitude of the hump is dependent on the average trap densities.

We fabricated 0.3um gate length inverse-T gate MOS(ITMOS) and conventional lightly doped drain oxide spacer MOS(LDDMOS), and studied electrical characteristics for comparison. Threshold voltage of 0.3um gate length device was 0.58 V for ITMOS and 0.6V for LDDMOS. Measured subthreshold characteristics showed a slope of 85mV/decades for both ITLDD and LDDMOS. Maximum transconductance at V S1ds T=V S1gs T=3.3V was 180mS/mm for ITMOS and 163mS/mm for LDDMOS respectively. GIDL current was observed to be 0.1pA/um for ITOMS and 0.8pA/um for LDDMOS. Substrate current of ITMOS as a function of drain current was found to be reduced by a foactor of 2.5 compared with that of LDDMOS.

1T-DRAM cell with solid phase (SPC) crystallized poly-Si thin film transistor was fabricated and electrical characteristics were evaluated. The fabricated device showed kink effect by negative back bias. Kink current is due to the floating body effect and it can be used to memory operation. Current difference between "1" state and "0" state was defined and the memory properties can be improved by using gate induced drain leakage (GIDL) current.
