This paper has presented the dependence of the threshold voltage on back gate bias and drain voltage for FinFET. The FinFET has three gates such as the front gate, side and back gate. Threshold voltage is defined as the front gate bias when drain current is 1 micro ampere as the onset of the turn-on condition. In this paper threshold voltage is investigated into the analytical potential model derived from three dimensional Poisson's equation with the variation of the back gate bias and drain voltage. The threshold voltage of a transistor is one of the key parameters in the design of CMOS circuits. The threshold voltage, which described the degree of short channel effects, has been extensively investigated. As known from the down scaling rules, the threshold voltage has been presented in the case that drain voltage is the 1.0V above, which is set as the maximum supply voltage, and the drain induced barrier lowing(DIBL), drain bias dependent threshold voltage, is obtained using this model.

An analytical threshold voltage model is presented to observe the change in threshold voltage shift ΔV_th of a junctionless double gate MOSFET using ferroelectric-metal-SiO₂ as a gate oxide film. The negative capacitance transistors using ferroelectric have the characteristics of increasing on-current and lowering off-current. The change in the threshold voltage of the transistor affects the power dissipation. Therefore, the change in the threshold voltage as a function of theferroelectric thickness is analyzed. The presented threshold voltage model is in a good agreement with the results of TCAD. As a results of our analysis using this analytical threshold voltage model, the change in the threshold voltage with respect to the change in the ferroelectric thickness showed that the threshold voltage increased with the increase of the absolute value of charges in the employed ferroelectric. This suggests that it is possible to obtain an optimum ferroelectric thickness at which the threshold voltage shift becomes 0 V by the voltage across the ferroelectric even when the channel length is reduced. It was also found that the ferroelectric thickness increased as the silicon thickness increased when the channel length was less than 30 nm, but the ferroelectric thickness decreased as the silicon thickness increased when the channel length was 30 nm or more in order to satisfy ΔV_th=0.

This paper has analyzed threshold voltage roll-off for bottom gate voltages of asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. Since the asymmetric DGMOSFET is four terminal device to be able to separately bias for top and bottom gates, the bottom gate voltage influences on threshold voltage. It is, therefore, investigated how the threshold voltage roll-off known as short channel effects is reduced with bottom gate voltage. In the pursuit of this purpose, off-current model is presented in the subthreshold region, and the threshold voltage roll-off is observed for channel length and thickness with a parameter of bottom gate voltage as threshold voltage is defined by top gate voltage that off-currnt is $10^{-7}A/{\mu}m$ per channel width. As a result to observe the threshold voltage roll-off for bottom gate voltage using this model, we know the bottom gate voltage greatly influences on threshold voltage roll-off voltages, especially in the region of short channel length and thickness.

This paper has presented doping profile dependent threshold voltage for DGMOSFET using analytical transport model based on Gaussian function. Two dimensional analytical transport model has been derived from Poisson's equation for symmetrical Double Gate MOSFETs(DGMOSFETs). Threshold voltage roll-off is very important short channel effects(SCEs) for nano structures since it determines turn on/off of MOSFETs. Threshold voltage has to be constant with decrease of channel length, but it shows roll-off due to SCEs. This analytical transport model is used to obtain the dependence of threshold voltage on channel doping profile for DGMOSFET profiles. Also we have analyzed threshold voltage for structure of channel such as channel length and gate oxide thickness.

Delta doping method can separate the threshold voltage control region from the charge transport region in a-Si TFT, whereby the threshold voltage of a TFT could be modified. Threshold voltage could be changed by delta doping, while field effect mobility was estimated to be 80% of that of standard TFT.

In this paper, we analytically examine the voltage transfer function dependent on input conditions for an N-Input NAND Gate. The logic threshold voltage, defined as a voltage at which the input and the output voltage become equal, changes as the input condition changes for a static NAND Gate. The logic threshold voltage has the highest value when all the N-inputs undergo transitions and it has the lowest value when only the last input connected to the last NMOS to ground, makes a transition. This logic threshold voltage difference increases as the number of inputs increases. Therefore, in order to provide a near symmetric voltage transfer function, a multistage N-Input Gate consisting of 2-Input Logic Gates is desirable over a conventional N-Input Gate.

An analytical threshold voltage model is proposed to analyze the threshold voltage roll-off and drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL) for a junction-based double-gate (JBDG) MOSFET and a junction-less double-gate (JLDG) MOSFET. We used the series-type potential distribution function derived from the Poisson equation, and observed that it is sufficient to use n=1 due to the drastic decrease in eigenvalues when increasing the n of the series-type potential function. The threshold voltage derived from this threshold voltage model was in good agreement with the result of TCAD simulation. The threshold voltage roll-off of the JBDG MOSFET was about 57% better than that of the JLDG MOSFET for a channel length of 25 nm, channel thickness of 10 nm, and oxide thickness of 2 nm. The DIBL of the JBDG MOSFET was about 12% better than that of the JLDG MOSFET, at a gate metal work-function of 5 eV. It was also found that decreasing the work-function of the gate metal significantly reduces the DIBL.

This paper has analyzed the change of threshold voltage for oxide structure of symmetric and asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. The asymmetric DGMOSFET can be fabricated with different top and bottom gate oxide thickness, while the symmetric DGMOSFET has the same top and bottom gate oxide thickness. Therefore optimum threshold voltage is considered for top and bottom gate oxide thickness of asymmetric DGMOSFET, compared with the threshold voltage of symmetric DGMOSFET. To obtain the threshold voltage, the analytical potential distribution is derived from Possion's equation, and Gaussian distribution function is used as doping profile. We investigate for bottom gate voltage, channel length and thickness, and doping concentration how top and bottom gate oxide thickness influences on threshold voltage using this threshold voltage model. As a result, threshold voltage is greatly changed for oxide thickness, and we know the changing trend greatly differs with bottom gate voltage, channel length and thickness, and doping concentration.

This paper has analyzed threshold voltage shift for doping profile of asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. Ion implantation is usually used in process of doping for semiconductor device and doping profile becomes Gaussian distribution. Gaussian distribution function is changed for projected range and standard projected deviation, and influenced on transport characteristics. Therefore, doping profile in channel of asymmetric DGMOSFET is affected in threshold voltage. Threshold voltage is minimum gate voltage to operate transistor, and defined as top gate voltage when drain current is $0.1{\mu}A$ per unit width. The analytical potential distribution of series form is derived from Poisson's equation to obtain threshold voltage. As a result, threshold voltage is greatly changed by doping profile in high doping range, and the shift of threshold voltage due to projected range and standard projected deviation significantly appears for bottom gate voltage in the region of high doping concentration.
