In case is below length 100nm of gate, various kinds problem can be happened with by threshold voltage change of device, occurrence of leakage current by tunneling because thickness of oxide by 1.5nm low scaling is done and doping concentration is increased. SiO$_2$ dielectric substance can not be used for gate insulator because is expected that tunneling current become 1A/cm$^2$ in 1.5nm thickness low. In this paper, devised double gate MOSFET(DGMOSFET) to decrease effect of leakage current by this tunneling. Therefore, could decrease effect of these leakage current in thickness 1nm low of SiO$_2$ dielectric substance. But, very big gate insulator of permittivity should be developed for develop device of nano scale.

In this paper, a new NMOS gate cross-connected current-mirror type bridge rectifier for UHF RFID applications is presented. The DC converting characteristics of the proposed rectifier are analyzed with the high frequency equivalent circuit and the gate capacitance reduction technique for reducing the gate leakage current due to the increasing of operating frequency is also proposed theoretically by circuitry method. As the results, the proposed rectifier shows nearly same DC output voltages as the existing NMOS gate cross-connected rectifier, but it shows the gate leakage current reduced to less than 1/4 and the power consumption reduced more than 30% at the load resistor, and it shows more stable DC supply voltages for the valiance of load resistance. In addition, the proposed rectifier shows high enough and well-rectified DC voltages for the frequency range of 13.56MHz HF(for ISO 18000-3), 915MHz UHF(for ISO 18000-6), and 2.45 GHz microwave(for ISO 18000-4). Therefore, the proposed rectifier can be used as a general purpose one to drive RFID transponder chips on various RFID systems which use specified frequencies.

The efficiency of CMOS technology has been developed in uniform rate. However, there was a limitation of reducing the thickness of Gate-oxide since the thickness of Gate Dielectric is also reduced so an amount of leakage current is grow. In order to solve this problem, the semiconductor device which has a dual gate is used widely. This paper presents a method and a necessity for making the Gate Stack of TFT. Before Using test devices to measure values, stacking $SiN_x$ on a wafer test was conducted.

In this paper, MOS-Capacitor and MOSFET devices with a Low Level Leakage Current of oxide thickness, channel width and length respectively were to investigate the reliability characterizations mechanism of ultra thin gate oxide films. These stress induced leakage current means leakage current caused by stress voltage. The low level leakage current in stress and transient current of thin silicon oxide films during and after low voltage has been studied from strss bias condition respectively. The stress channel currents through an oxide measured during application of constant gate voltage and the transient channel currents through the oxide measured after application of constant gate voltage. The study have been the determination of the physical processes taking place in the oxides during the low level leakage current in stress and transient current by stress bias and the use of the knowledge of the physical processes for driving operation reliability.

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.

To make up for the disadvantages of PVA gate, we blend PVP(20% wt) with PVA(5% wt) as a gate material. The best ratio for the mixture was 5:5, PVP-PVA blended gate used MIM structure showed better performance in leakage current and capacitance. PVP-PVA blended gate was fabricated by spin-coating process and pentacene was used as an organic TFT channel layer by thermal evaporation. Overall OTFT performance has also increased as PVP-PVA blended gate has relatively lower leakage current and higher capacitance than pure PVA gate has.

Gate insulator for Si field emitter is usually formed by e-beam evaporation. However, the evaported oxide requires densification for a stable process and a reduction of gate leakage which results from its Si-rich and nonstoicheiometric structure. In this study, we have developed the process technology able to densify the evaporated oxide in H$_{2}$O ambient. Using this process, we have fabricted thefield emitter array with 625 emitters per pixel, of which gate hole diameter is 1.4.mu.m, for the pixel, anode current of 14.3.mu.A was extracted at a gate bias of 100V and gate leakage was about 0.27% of the total emission current.

In this work, the temperature dependence of electrical parameters of nanoscale SOI (silicon-on-insulator) TG (triple gate) n-FinFET (n-channel Fin field effect transistor) was investigated. Numerical device simulator $ATLAS^{TM}$ was used to construct, examine, and simulate the structure in three dimensions with different models. The drain current, transconductance, threshold voltage, subthreshold swing, leakage current, drain induced barrier lowering, and on/off current ratio were studied in various biasing configurations. The temperature dependence of the main electrical parameters of a SOI TG n-FinFET was analyzed and discussed. Increased temperature led to degraded performance of some basic parameters such as subthreshold swing, transconductance, on-current, and leakage current. These results might be useful for further development of devises to strongly down-scale the manufacturing process.

본 연구에서는 Oxide 두께가 각각 4, 6 nm인 Symmetric NMOSFET의 전기적 특성 분석에 관한 연구를 진행하였다. 게이트 전압에 따른 Drain saturation current (IDSAT), Threshold Voltage(VT) 및 드레인 전압에 따른 Off-states 특성 변화를 분석하였다. 소자 측정 결과 oxide 두께가 4 nm인 경우 Vt는 0.3 V, IDSAT은 73 ${\mu}A$ (@VD=0.05)로, oxide 두께가 6 nm인 경우 Vt는 0.65 V, IDSAT은 66 ${\mu}A$ (@VD=0.05)로 각각 측정되었다. 이는 oxide 두께가 얇은 경우 게이트 전압 인가 시 Electric field 증가에 따른 것으로 판단된다. 또한 드레인 전압 인가에 따른 소자 특성 분석 결과 oxide 두께가 4nm인 경우 급격한 Gate leakage 증가를 보였으며, 이에 따라 Off-state에서의 leakage current가 증가함을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 Oxide 두께에 따른 MOSFET 소자의 전기적 특성 분석을 위해 진행되었으며, 상기 결과와 같이 oxide 두께 가변은 Idsat, Vt, leakage current 등의 주요 파라미터에 영향을 주어 NMOSFET 소자의 전기적 특성을 변화시킴을 확인하였다.

We have proposed and fabricated a new poly-Si TFT employing air-cavities at the edges of gate oxide in order to reduce the vertical electric field induced near the drain due to low dielectric constant of air. Air-cavity has been successfully fabricated by employing the wet etching of gate oxide and APCVD (Atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition) oxide deposition. Our experimental results show that the leakage current of the proposed TFT is considerably reduced by the factor of 10 and threshold voltage shift under high gate bias is also reduced because the carrier injection into gate insulator over the drain depletion region is suppressed.
