A GaAs schottky diode with taper field plate is proposed to increase breakdown voltage. Breakdown voltage is calculated by device simulator MEDICI. The GaAs schottky diode with taper gate which has $5.7^{\circ}$ taper angle have shown 45% increase in the breakdown voltage compared with conventional field plate GaAs schottky diode.

silicided 50-nm-gate-length n-type Schottky barrier metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistors (SB-MOSFETs) with 5 nm gate oxide thickness are manufactured. The saturation current is $120{\mu}A/{\mu}m$ and on/off-current ratio is higher than $10^5$ with low leakage current less than $10{\mu}A/{\mu}m$. Novel phenomena of this device are discussed. The increase of tunneling current with the increase of drain voltage is explained using drain induced Schottky barrier thickness thinning effect. The abnormal increase of drain current with the decrease of gate voltage is explained by hole carrier injection from drain into channel. The mechanism of threshold voltage increase in SB-MOSFETs is discussed. Based on the extracted model parameters, the performance of 10-nm-gate-length SB-MOSFETs is predicted. The results show that the subthreshold swing value can be lower than 60 mV/decade.

본 연구에서는 고온에서 Schottky barrier SOI nMOS 및 pMOS의 전류-전압 특성을 분석하기 위해서 Er 실리사이드를 갖는 SB-SOI nMOSFET와 Pt 실리사이드를 갖는 SB-SOI pMOSFET를 제작하였다. 게이트 전압에 따른 SB-SOI nMOS 및 pMOS의 주된 전류 전도 메카니즘을 온도에 따른 드레인 전류 측정 결과를 이용하여 설명하였다. 낮은 게이트 전압에서는 온도에 따라 열전자 방출 및 터널링 전류가 증가하므로 드레인 전류가 증가하고 높은 게이트 전압에서는 드리프트 전류가 감소하여 드레인 전류가 감소하였다. 고온에서 ON 전류가 증가하지만 드레인으로부터 채널영역으로의 터널링 전류 증가로 OFF 전류가 더 많이 증가하게 되므로 ON/OFF 전류비는 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 SOI 소자나 bulk MOSFET 소자에 비해 SB-SOI nMOS 및 pMOS의 온도에 따른 문턱전압 변화는 작았고 subthreshold swing은 증가하였다.

The theoretical and experimental current-voltage characteristics of Erbium silicided n-type Schottky barrier tunneling transistors (SBTTs) are discussed. The theoretical drain current to drain voltage characteristics show good correspondence and the extracted Schottky barrier height is 0.24 eV. The experimentally manufactured n-type SBTTs with 60 nm gate lengths show typical transistor behaviors in drain current to drain voltage characteristics. The drain current on/off ratio is about 10$^{5}$ at low drain voltage regime in drain current to gate voltage characteristics.

The DC and RF characteristics of $In_{0.5}Ga_{0.5}P/In_{0.22}Ga_{0.78}As/GaAs$ p-HEMTs with a gate oxide layer of various thicknesses ($50{\;}{\AA},{\;}300{\;}{\AA}$) were investigated and compared with those of a Schottky-gate p-HEMT without the gate oxide layer. A prominent improvement in the breakdown voltage characteristics were observed for a p-HEMT having a gate oxide layer, which was implemented by using a liquid phase oxidation technique. The on-state breakdown voltage of the p-HEMT having the oxide layer of $50{\;}{\AA}$was ~2.3 times greater than that of a Schottky-gate p-HEMT. However, the p-HEMT having the gate oxide layer of $300{\;}{\AA}$ suffered from a poor gate-control capability due to the drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) resulting from the thick gate oxide inspite of the lower gate leakage current and the higher on-state breakdown voltage. The results for a primitive p-HEMT having the gate oxide layer without any optimization of the structure and the process indicate the potential of p-HEMT having the gate oxide layer for high-power applications.

Interface-trap density, lifetime and Schottky barrier height of erbium-silicided Schottky diode are evaluated using equivalent circuit method. The extracted interface trap density, lifetime and Schottky barrier height for hole are determined as $1.5{\times}10^{13} traps/cm^2$, 3.75 ms and 0.76 eV, respectively. The interface traps are efficiently cured by $N_2$ annealing. Based on the diode characteristics, various sizes of erbium- silicided/platinum-silicided n/p-type Schottky barrier metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (SB-MOSFETs) are manufactured from 20 m to 35nm. The manufactured SB-MOSFETs show excellent drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) characteristics due to the existence of Schottky barrier between source and channel. DIBL and subthreshold swing characteristics are compatible with the ultimate scaling limit of double gate MOSFETs which shows the possible application of SB-MOSFETs in nanoscale regime.

The drain current of the SB MOSFET was analytically modeled by an equation composed of thermionic emission and tunneling with consideration of the image force lowering. The depletion region electron concentration was used to model the channel electron concentration for the tunneling current. The Schottky barrier width is dependent on the channel electron concentration. The drain current is changed by the gate oxide thickness and Schottky barrier height, but it is hardly changed by the doping concentration. For a GaN SB MOSFET with ITO source and drain electrodes, the calculated threshold voltage was 3.5 V which was similar to the measured value of 3.75 V and the calculated drain current was 1.2 times higher than the measured.

A new trenched Hybrid Schottky INjection Field Effect Transistor (HSINFET) is proposed and verified by 2-D semiconductor device simulation. The feature of the proposed structure is that the hybrid Schottky injector is implemented at the trench sidewall and p-n junction injector at the upper sidewall and bottom of a trench. Two-dimensional simulation has been performed to compare the new HSINFET with the SINFET, conventional HSINFET and lateral insulated gate bipolar transistor(LIGBT). The numerical results shows that the current handling capability of the proposed HSINFET is significantly increased without sacrificing turn-off characteristics. The proposed HSINFET exhibits higher latch-up current density and much faster switching speed than the lateral IGBT. The forward voltage drop of the proposed HSINFET is 0.4 V lower than that of the conventional HSINFET and the turn-off time of the trenched HSINFET is much smaller than that of LIGBT.

쇼트키 장벽 관통 트랜지스터에 실리콘 나노점을 부유 게이트로 사용하는 비휘발성 메모리 소자를 제작하였다. 소스/드레인 영역에 어븀 실리사이드를 형성하여 쇼트키 장벽을 생성하였으며, 디지털 가스 주입의 저압 화학 기상 증착법으로 실리콘 나노점을 형성하여 부유 게이트로 이용하였다. 쇼트키 장벽 관통 트랜지스터의 동작 상태를 확인하였으며, 게이트 전압의 크기 및 걸어준 시간에 따른 트랜지스터의 문턱전압의 이동을 관찰함으로써 비휘발성 메모리 특성을 측정하였다. 초기 ${\pm}20\;V$의 쓰기/지우기 동작에 따른 메모리 창의 크기는 ${\sim}5\;V$ 이었으며, 나노점에 충분한 전하 충전을 위한 동작 시간은 10/50 msec 이었다. 그러나 메모리 창의 크기는 일정 시간이 지난 후에 0.4 V로 감소하였다. 이러한 메모리 창의 감소 원인을 어븀 확산에 따른 결과로 설명하였다. 본 메모리 소자는 비교적 안정한 쓰기/지우기 내구성을 보여주었으나, 지속적인 쓰기/지우기 동작에 따라 수 V의 문턱전압 이동과 메모리 창의 감소를 보여주었다. 본 실험 결과를 가지고 실리콘 나노점 부유게이트가 쇼트키 장벽 트랜지스터 구조에 접목 가능하여 초미세 비휘발성 메모리 소자로 개발 가능함을 확인하였다.
