In this paper, the 1/f noise characteristics of n-channel MOSFET (NMOSFET) and p-channel MOSFET (PMOSFET) are analyzed in depth as a function of body bias. The normalized drain current noise, $S_{ID}/I_D{^2}$ showed strong dependence on the body bias in the sub-threshold region for both NMOSFET and PMOSFET, and NMOSFET showed stronger dependence than PMOSFET on the body bias. On the contrary, both of NMOSFET and PMOSFET do not exhibit the dependence of $S_{ID}/I_D{^2}$ on body bias in strong inversion region, although the noise mechanisms of two MOSFETs are different from each other.

A high voltage NMOSFET is proposed to drive top emission organic light emitting device (OLED) used in the organic electroluminescent (EL) display on the single crystal silicon substrate. The high voltage NMOSFET can be fabricated by utilizing a simple layout technique with a standard CMOS logic process. It is clearly shown that the maximum supply voltage ($V_{DD}$) required for the pixel-driving transistor could reach 45 V through analytic and experimental methods. The high voltage NMOSFET was fabricated by using a standard 1.5 ${\mu}m$, 5 V CMOS logic process. From the measurements, we confirmed that the high voltage NMOSFET could sustain the excellent saturation characteristic up to 50 V without breakdown phenomena.

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.

Thin film SOI(Silicon-On-Insulator) devices exhibit floating body effect. In this paper, SOI NMOSFET is proposed to solve this problem. Some part of gate oxide was considered to be 30nm~80nm thicker than the other normal gate oxide and simulated with TSUPREM-4. The I-V characteristics were simulated with 2D MEDICI mesh. Since part of gate oxide has different oxide thickness in proposed device, the gate electric field strength is not the same throught the gate and consequently the reduction of current kink effect is occurred.

The NMOSFET with gate length of 0.1$\mu$m is fabricated by mix-and-match method. In this device, the electron beam lithography is used to form the gate layer, while other layers are formed by the stepper. The gate oxide is 7nm thick, and the device structure is normal LDD structure. The saturation Gm for gate length of 0.1$\mu$m is 246mS/mm. The subthreshold slope is 180mV/decade for 0.1$\mu$m gate length, but the slope is 80mV/decade for 0.3$\mu$m gate length.

The quantum effects in the channel of a $\delta$ -doped NMOSFET structures are investigated by solving Schrodinger and Poisson equations self-consistently. According to the scaling of MOSFET structures, electron distributions change by the strong energy quantization. However the presence of a low-doped epitaxial region produces a reduction of the electron effective field for a given charge sheet density and therefore, improves the electron effective mobility. We also focus the quantum-induced threshold voltage shifts, low-field electron effective mobility and gate-to-channel capacitance. The reported results give indications for the fabrication of ultra short MOSFET's.

N$^{+}$poly gate NMOSFETs and p$^{+}$ poly gate (surface type) PMOSFETs with three different gate oxides(SiO2, NO, and ONO) were fabricated. The rapid thermal nitridation and reoxidation techniques have been applied to gate oxide formation. The current drivability of the ONO NMOSFET shows larger values than that of the SiO2 NMOSFET. The snap-back occurs at a lower drain voltage for SiO$_2$ cases for ONO NMOSFET. Under the maximum substrate current bias conditions, hot-carrier effects inducting threshold voltage shift and transconductance degradation were investigated. The results indicate that ONO films exhibit less degradation in terms of threshold voltage shift. It was confirmed that the ONO samples achieve good improvement of hot-carrier immunity. In a SiO$_2$ SC-PMOSFET, with significant boron penetration, it becomes a depletion type (normally-on). But ONO films show excellent impurity barrier properties to boron penetration from the gate.

We propose a novel power metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) employing a strained-Si channel structure to improve the current drivability and on-resistance characteristic of the high-voltage MOSFET. A 20 nm thick strained-Si low field channel NMOSFET with a $0.75\;{\mu}m$ thick $Si_{0.8}Ge_{0.2}$ buffer layer improved the drive current by 20% with a 25% reduction in on-resistance compared with a conventional Si channel high-voltage NMOSFET, while suppressing the breakdown voltage and subthreshold slope characteristic degradation by 6% and 8%, respectively. Also, the strained-Si high-voltage NMOSFET improved the transconductance by 28% and 52% at the linear and saturation regimes.

기존의 n-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor(NMOSFET)은 $n^+/p^{(+)}/n^+$ type의 이온 주입을 통하여 소스/채널/드레인 영역을 형성하게 된다. 30 nm 이하의 채널 길이를 갖는 초미세 소자를 제작함에 있어서 설계한 유효 채널 길이를 정확하게 얻기 위해서는 주입된 이온들을 완전히 activation하여 전류 수준을 향상시키면서도 diffusion을 최소화하기 위해 낮은 thermal budget을 갖도록 공정을 설계해야 한다. 실제 공정에서의 process margin을 완화할 수 있도록 오히려 p-type 채널을 형성하져 않으면서도 기존의 NMOSFET의 동작을 온전히 구현할 수 있는 junctionless(JL) MOSFET이 연구중이다. 본 논문에서는 3차원 소자 시뮬레이션을 통하여 silicon nanowire(SNW) 구조에 접목시킨 JL MOSFET을 최적 설계하고 그러한 조건의 소자에 대하여 conductance, maximum oscillation frequency($f_{max}$), current gain cut-off frequency($f_T$) 등의 기본적인 고주파 특성을 분석한다. 채널 길이는 30 nm이며 설계 변수는 채널 도핑 농도와 채널 SNW의 반지름이다. 최적 설계된 JL SNW NMOSFET에 대하여 동작 조건($V_{GS}$ = $V_{DS}$ = 1.0 V)에서 각각 367.5 GHz, 602.5 GHz의 $f_T$, $f_{max}$를 얻을 수 있었다.

The electrical characteristics of NMOSFETs with asymmetrical source/drain regions have been expermentally investigated using test devices fabricated by $0.35\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS technology. The performance degradation for asymmetric transistor and its causes are analyzed. The parasitic resistances, such as series resistance of active regions and silicide junction contact resistance, are distributed in parallel along the channel. Depending on source/drain geometry, the array of those resistances is changed, that results the various electrical properties.
