Due to the limitations of the channel length, the lateral spread for two-dimensional impurity distributions is critical for the analysis of devices including the integrated complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) circuits and high frequency semiconductor devices. The developed codes were then compared with the two-dimensional implanted profiles measured by transmission electron microscope (TEM) as well as simulated by a commercial TSUPREM4 for verification purposes. The measured two-dimensional TEM data obtained by chemical etching-method was consistent with the results of the developed analytical model, and it seemed to be more accurate than the results attained by a commercial TSUPREM4. The developed codes can be applied on a wider energy range $(1KeV{\sim}30MeV)$ than a commercial TSUPREM4 of which the maximum energy range cannot exceed 1MeV for the limited doping elements. Moreover, it is not only limited to diffusion process but also can be applied to implantation due to the sloped and nano scale structure of the mask.

This paper describes the structure modeling and operation characteristics of MFMIS(metal-ferroelectric-metal-insulator-semiconductor) device using the Tsuprem4 which is a semiconductor device tool by Avanti. MFMIS device is being studied for nonvolatile memory application at various semiconductor laboratory but it is difficult to fabricate and analyze MFMIS devices using the semiconductor simulation tool: Tsuprem4, medici and etc. So the new library and new materials parameters for adjusting ferroelectric material and platinum electrodes in the tools are studied. In this paper structural model and operation characteristics of MFMIS devices are measured, which can be easily adopted to analysis of MFMIS device for nonvolatile memory device application.

In submicron MOSFET devices, maintaining the ratio between the channel length (L) and the channel depth (D) at 3 : 1 or larger is known to be critical in preventing deleterious short-channel effects. In this study, n-type SOI-MOSFETs with a channel length of $0.1\;{\mu}m$ and a Si film thickness (channel depth) of $0.033\;{\mu}m$ (L : D = 3 : 1) were virtually fabricated using a TSUPREM-4 process simulator. To form functioning transistors on the very thin Si film, a protective layer of $0.08\;{\mu}m$-thick surface oxide was deposited prior to the source/drain ion implantation so as to dampen the speed of the incoming As ions. The p-type boron doping concentration of the Si film, in which the device channel is formed, was used as the key variable in the process simulation. The finished devices were electrically tested with a Medici device simulator. The result showed that, for a given channel doping concentration of $1.9{\sim}2.5\;{\times}\;10^{18}\;cm^{-3}$, the threshold voltage was $0.5{\sim}0.7\;V$, and the subthreshold swing was $70{\sim}80\;mV/dec$. These value ranges are all fairly reasonable and should form a 'magic region' in which SOI-MOSFETs run optimally.

Thin film SOI(Silicon-on-insulator) device offer unique advantages such as reduction in short channel effects, improvement of subthreshold slope, higher mobility, latch-up free nature, and so on. But these devices exhibit floating-body effet such as current kink which inhibits the proper device operation. In this paper, the SOI NMOSFET with a T-type gate structure is proposed to solve the above problem. To simulate the proposed device with TSUPREM-4, the part of gate oxide was considered to be 30nm thicker than the normal gate oxide. The I-V characteristics were simulated with 2D MEDICI. Since part of gate oxide has different oxide thickness, the gate electric field strength is not same throughout the gate and hence the impact ionization current is reduced. The current kink effect will be reduced as the impact ionization current drop. The reduction of current kink effect for the proposed device structure were shown using MEDICI by the simulation of impact ionization current, I-V characteristics, and hole current distribution.

An SOI(Silicon-On-Insulator) LD(Lateral Double-diffused)MOS with graded gate and recessed source is proposed. The proposed structure can increase the breakdown voltage by reducing the electric field crowding at the edge of gate. Simulation results by TSUPREM4 and MEDICI have shown that the breakdown voltage of proposed device was found to be 52 V while that of conventional device was 45 V. At the same breakdown voltage of 45 V, the on-resistance of the LDMOS with graded gate and recessed source was 14.4 % lower than that of conventional structure.

This research analyzed the electrical characteristics of an 80 V optimal trench power MOSFET (metal oxide field effect transistor) for mobile applications. The power MOSFET is a fast switching device in fields with low voltage(<100 V) such as mobile application. Moreover, the power MOSFET is a major carrier device that is not minor carrier accumulation when the device is turned off. We performed process and device simulation using TCAD tools such as MEDICI and TSUPREM. The electrical characteristics of the proposed trench gate power MOSFET such as breakdown voltage and on resistance were compared with those of the conventional power MOSFET. Consequently, we obtained breakdown voltage of 100 V and low on resistance of $130m{\Omega}$. The proposed power MOSFET will be used as a switch in batteries of mobile phones and note books.

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.

To improve the DIBL characteristics of deep sub micron BC PMOSFETs, the methods of DCI(Deep Channel Implantation) and Hale Implantation have been reported. In this study, using the process simulator TSUPREM4, we simulated the 0.25$\mu\textrm{m}$ and 0.45$\mu\textrm{m}$ gate length BC PMOSFETs applying the both methods to improve the DIBL characteristics, and their electric characteristics were compared to find the mothod suitable far deep sub-half micron BC PMOSFETs, using the device simulator MEDICI. So we found out that the method of Halo Implantation could be applied to deep sub-half micron BC PMOSFETs for 255 Mbit DRAM.
