The double gate(DG) MOSFET is a promising candidate to further extend the CMOS scaling and provide better control of short channel effect(SCE). DGMOSFETs, having ultra thin undoped Si channel for SCEs control, ale being validated for sub-20nm scaling. A novel analytical transport model for the subthreshold mode of DGMOSFETs is proposed in this paper. The model enables analysis of short channel effect such as the subthreshold swing(SS), the threshold voltage roil-off$({\Delta}V_{th})$ and the drain induced barrier lowering(DIBL). The proposed model includes the effects of thermionic emission and quantum tunneling of carriers through the source-drain barrier. An approximative solution of the 2D Poisson equation is used for the distribution of electric potential, and Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin approximation is used for the tunneling probability. The new model is used to investigate the subthreshold characteristics of a double gate MOSFET having the gate length in the nanometer range $(5-20{\sim}nm)$ with ultra thin gate oxide and channel thickness. The model is verified by comparing the subthreshold swing and the threshold voltage roll-off with 2D numerical simulations. The proposed model is used to design contours for gate length, channel thickness, and gate oxide thickness.

Three different structures of GaN MOSFETs with trap distributions, trap levels, and densities were simulated, and its results were analyzed. Two of them are Schottky barrier MOSFETs(SB-MOSFETs): one with a p-type GaN body while the other is in the accumulation mode MOSFET with an undoped GaN body and regrown source/drain. The trap levels, distributions and densities were considered based on the measured or calculated properties. For the SB-MOSFET, the interface trap distribution affected the threshold voltage significantly, but had a relatively small influence on the subthreshold swing, while the bulk trap distribution affects the subthreshold swing more.

In this paper, the subthreshold characteristics have been alanyzed using MicroTec4.0 for double gate MOSFET(DGMOSFET). The DGMOSFET is extensively been studing since it can reduce the short channel effects due to structural characteristics. We have presented the short channel effects such as subthreshold swing and threshold voltage for DGMOSFET, using MicroTec, semiconductor simulator. We have analyzed for channel length, thickness and width to consider the structural characteristics for DGMOSFET. The subthreshold swing and threshold voltage have been analyzed for DGMOSFET using MicroTec since MicroTec is well verified as comparing with results of the numerical three dimensional models.

The device performances of accumulation-mode Pi-gate pMOSFETs with different fin widths have been characterized at high operating temperatures. The device fin height is 10nm and fin widths are 30nm, 40nm, and 50nm. The variation of the drain current, threshold voltage, subthreshold swing, effective mobility, and leakage current have been investigated as a function of operating temperatures. The drain current at high temperature is slightly larger than at room temperature. The variation of the threshold voltage as a function of the operating temperature is smaller than that of the inversion-mode MOSFETs. The effective mobility is decreased with the increase of operating temperature. It is observed that the effective mobility is enhanced as the fin width decreases.

In this study, we have fabricated and characterized vertical double-gate (DG) InGaAs tunnel field-effect-transistors (TFETs) with Al₂O₃/HfO₂ = 1/5 nm bi-layer gate dielectric by employing a top-down approach. The device exhibited excellent characteristics including a minimum subthreshold swing of 60 mV/decade, a maximum transconductance of 141 µS/㎛, and an on/off current ratio of over 10³ at 20℃. Although the TFETs were fabricated using a dry etch-based top-down approach, the values of DIBL and hysteresis were as low as 40 mV/V and below 10 mV, respectively. By evaluating the effects of constant voltage and hot carrier injection stress on the vertical DG InGaAs TFET, we have identified the dominant charge trapping mechanism in TFETs.

N-channel poly-Si TFT, Processed by Solid Phase Crystalline(SPC) on a glass substrate, has been investigated by measuring its electrical properties before and after electrical stressing. It is observed that the threshold voltage shift due to electrical stress varies with various stress conditions. Threshold voltages measured in 1.5$\mu\textrm{m}$ and 3$\mu\textrm{m}$ poly-Si TFTs are 3.3V, 3.V respectively. With the threshold voltage shia the degradation of transconductance(G$\_$m/) and subthreshold swing(S) is also observed.

In this work, Er-silicided SB-SOI nMOSFET and Pt-silicided SB-SOI pMOSFET have been fabricated to investigate the current-voltage characteristics of Schottky barrier SOI nMOS and pMOS at elevated temperature. The dominant current transport mechanism of SB nMOS and pMOS is discussed using the measurement results of the temperature dependence of drain current with gate voltages. It is observed that the drain current increases with the increase of operating temperature at low gate voltage due to the increase of thermal emission and tunneling current. But the drain current is decreased at high gate voltage due to the decrease of the drift current. It is observed that the ON/Off current ratio is decreased due to the increased tunneling current from the drain to channel region although the ON current is increased at elevated temperature. The threshold voltage variation with temperature is smaller and the subthreshold swing is larger in SB-SOI nMOS and pMOS than in SOI devices or in bulk MOSFETs.

A novel selective oxidation process has been developed for low source/drain (S/D) series resistance of the fin channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET). Using this technique, the selective oxidation fin-channel MOSFET (SoxFET) has the gate-all-around structure and gradually enhanced S/D extension regions. The SoxFET demonstrated over 70% reduction in S/D series resistance compared to the control device. Moreover, it was found that the SoxFET behaved better in performance, not only a higher drive current but also higher transconductances with suppressing subthreshold swing and drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) characteristics, than the control device. The saturation current, threshold voltage, peak linear transconductance, peak saturation transconductance, subthreshold swing, and DIBL for the fabricated SoxFET are 305 ㎂/㎛, 0.33 V, 13.5 𝜇S, 76.4 𝜇S, 78 mV/dec, and 62 mV/V, respectively.
