We have investigated the effect of the device structure on the performance of polycrystalline ZnO TFT and amorphous AZTO TFT with top gate and bottom gate structure. While the mobility of both TFTs showed relatively similar value in a top and bottom gate structure, bias stability was quite different depending on the device structure. Top gate TFT showed much less Vth shift under positive bias stress compared to that of bottom gate TFT. We attributed this different behavior to the defects formation on the gate insulator induced by energetic bombardment during the active layer deposition in a bottom gate TFT. We suggest the top gate oxide TFT would show more stable behavior under the Vgs bias.

Deep sub-micron device required to get the superior ultra thin gate oxide characteristics. In this research, I will recommend a novel shallow trench isolation structure(STI) for thin gate oxide and a $N_2$O gate oxide 30 $\AA$ by NO ambient process. The local oxidation of silicon(LOCOS) isolation has been replaced by the shallow trench isolation which has less encroachment into the active device area. Also for $N_2$O gate oxide 30 $\AA$, ultra thin gate oxide 30 $\AA$ was formed by using the $N_2$O gate oxide formation method on STI structure and LOCOS structure. For the metal electrode and junction, TiSi$_2$ process was performed by RTP annealing at 850 $^{\circ}C$ for 29 sec. In the viewpoints of the physical characteristics of MOS capacitor, STI structure was confirmed by SEM. STI structure was expected to minimize the oxide loss at the channel edge. Also, STI structure is considered to decrease the threshold voltage, result in a lower Ti/TiN resistance( Ω /cont.) and higher capacitance-gate voltage(C- V) that made the STI structure more effective. In terms of the TDDB(sec) characteristics, the STI structure showed the stable value of 25 % ～ 90 % more than 55 sec. In brief, analysis of the ultra thin gate oxide 30 $\AA$ proved that STI isolation structure and salicidation process presented in this study. I could achieve improved electrical characteristics and reliability for deep submicron devices with 30 $\AA$ $N_2$O gate oxide.

In this paper, we have simulated a Symmetric Dual-gate Single-Si TFT which has three split floating n+ zones. This structure reduces the kink-effect drastically and improves the on-current. Due to the separated floating n+ zones, the transistor channel region is split into four zones with different lengths defined by a floating n+ region, This structure allows an effective reduction of the kink-effect depending on the length of two sub-channels. The on-current of the proposed dual-gate structure is 0.9mA while that of the conventional dual-gate structure is 0.5mA at a 12V drain voltage and a 7V gate voltage. This result shows a 80% enhancement in on-current. Moreover we observed the reduction of electric field in the channel region compared to conventional single-gate TFT and the reduction of the output conductance in the saturation region. In addition, we also confirmed the reduction of hole concentration in the channel region so that the kink-effect reduces effectively.

CMOS 소자들은 고속 동자 및 고집적을 위해 50nm이하로 작아지고 있다. 소자 scaling에서 중요한 것은 스케일 되지 않은 문턱 전압($V^{th}$ ), 고 전계, 기생 소스/드레인 저항과 임의의 dopant 분배에 의한 $V^{th}$ 변화율이다. 이런 일반적인 소자의 scaling down 문제들을 해결하기 위해 새로운 소자의 구조가 제안된다. 본 논문에서는 이런 문제들을 해결하기 위해 main-gate와 side-gates를 갖는 double-gate MOSFET에 대해 조사하였다.

For the Mo-tip field emitter array, the method by which the geometrical structure of the gate insulator wall could be modified in order to improve field emission properties(turn-on voltage and gate leakage current). The device having a gate insulator of complex shape, which means the combined geometrical structure with round shape made by wet etching and vertical shape made by dry etching processes, was fabricated and the field emission properties of the three kinds of devices were compared. As a result, the electric field applied to tip apex could be increased and gate leakage current could be decreased by employing the gate insulator having geometrical wall structure of mixed shape. Finally, the obtained empirical results were analyzed by simulation of electric field distribution at/near the tip apex and gate insulator using SNU-FEAT simulator.

In this paper, a 1,200 V Si-based IGBT used in electric vehicles and new energy industries was designed. A field stop IGBT with a separate gate structure, which is the proposed structure, was designed to change trench depth and split gate width variables. Then, the general trench structure and electrical characteristics were compared and analyzed. As a result of conducting the trench depth experiment, it was confirmed that the breakdown voltage was the highest at 6 ㎛, and the on-state voltage drop was the lowest at 3.5 ㎛. In the separate gate width experiment, it was confirmed that the breakdown voltage decreased as the variable increased, and the on-state voltage drop increased. Therefore, it may be seen that it is preferable not to change the width of the separate gate. In addition, experiments show that there is no difference in on-state voltage drop compared to a structure in which a general field stop structure has a separate gate structure. In other words, it is determined that adding a dummy gate with a separate gate structure to the active cell will significantly improve the on-voltage drop characteristics, while confirming that the on-voltage drop does not change, and while having excellent characteristics in terms of breakdown voltage.

From 20nm technology node, the finFET has become standard device for ULSI's. However, the finFET process made stacking gate non-volatile memory obsolete. Some reported capacitor-less DRAM structure by utilizing the FBE. We present possible non-volatile memory device structure similar to the dual gate MOSFET. One of the gates is left floating. Since body of the finFET is only 40nm thick, control gate bias can make electron tunneling through the floating gate oxide which sits across the body. For programming, gate is biased to accumulation mode with few volts. Simulation results show that the programming electron current flows at the interface between floating gate oxide and the body. It also shows that the magnitude of the programming current can be easily controlled by the drain voltage. Injected electrons at the floating gate act similar to the body bias which changes the threshold voltage of the device.

본 논문에서는 이중 게이트 junctionless MOSFET 의 성능 최적화를 위하여 다중 게이트 형태를 적용하여 평가한다. 금속 게이트들 사이의 일함수가 서로 다르므로 다중 게이트 구조를 적용할 경우 금속게이트 길이에 따라 소스와 드레인 주변의 전위를 조절할 수 있다. 동작 전류와 누설 전류 그리고 동작 전압은 게이트 구조에 의해 조절이 가능하며 이로 인한 동작 특성 최적화가 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 반도체 소자 시뮬레이션을 통하여 junctionless MOSFET 의 최적화를 구현하고 분석하는 연구를 수행 한다.

본 논문에서는 main gate(MG)와 side gate(SG)를 갖는 double gate(DG) MOSFET를 디자인하고 TCAD를 이용하여 시뮬레이션하였다. MG와 SG의 길이(LMG, LSG)는 각각 50nm, 70nm로 하였으며, MG와 SG의 전압(VMG, VSG)이 각각 1.5V, 3.0V일 때 드레인전압(VD)을 0에서 1.5V까지 변화시키면서 핀치오프특성을 조사하였다. LMG가 아주 작음에도 불구하고, 핀치-오프특성이 아주 좋게 나타났다. 이것은 DG MOSFET의 VMG가 게이트를 제어하는 역할을 잘 수행하여 나노 구조에서 유용한 구조임을 알 수 있었다.

This paper aims to develop a low gate source voltage ($V_{gs}$) N-LDMOS element that is fully operational at a CMOS Logic Gate voltage (3.3 or 5 V) realized using the 0.35 μm BCDMOS process. The basic structure of the N-LDMOS element presented here has a Low $V_{gs}$ LDMOS structure to which the thickness of a logic gate oxide is applied. Additional modification has been carried out in order to obtain features of an improved breakdown voltage and a specific on resistance ($R_{sp}$). A N-LDMOS element can be developed with improved features of breakdown voltage and specific on resistance, which is an important criterion for power elements by means of using a proper structure and appropriate process modification. In this paper, the structure has been made to withstand the excessive electrical field on the drain side by applying the double gate oxide structure to the channel area, to improve the specific on resistance in addition to providing a sufficient breakdown voltage margin. It is shown that the resulting modified N-LDMOS structure with the feature of the specific on resistance is improved by 31%, and so it is expected that optimized power efficiencies and the size-effectiveness can be obtained.
