Asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET is a novel transistor to be able to reduce the short channel effects. This paper has analyzed a off current for conduction path of asymmetric DGMOSFET. The conduction path is a average distance from top gate the movement of carrier in channel happens, and a factor to change for oxide thickness of asymmetric DGMOSFET to be able to fabricate differently top and bottom gate oxide thickness, and influenced on off current for top gate voltage. As the conduction path is obtained and off current is calculated for top gate voltage, it is analyzed how conduction path influences on off current with parameters of oxide thickness and channel length. The analytical potential distribution of series form is derived from Poisson's equation to obtain off current. As a result, off current is greatly changed for conduction path, and we know threshold voltage and subthreshold swing are changed for this reasons.

This paper has analyzed the subthreshold swings for top and bottom gate voltages of asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. The asymmetric DGMOSFET is four terminal device to be able to separately bias for top and bottom gates. The subthreshold swing, therefore, has to be analyze not only for top gate voltage, but also for bottom gate voltage. In the pursuit of this purpose, Poisson equation has been solved to obtain the analytical solution of potential distribution with Gaussian function, and the subthreshold swing model has been presented. As a result to observe the subthreshold swings for the change of top and bottom gate voltage using this subthreshold swing model, we know the subthreshold swings are greatly changed for gate voltages. Especially we know the conduction path has been changed for top and bottom gate voltage and this is expected to greatly influence on subthreshold swings.

The change of subthreshold swing for channel length of asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET has been analyzed. The subthreshold swing is the important factor to determine digital chracteristics of transistor and is degraded with reduction of channel. The subthreshold swing for channel length of the DGMOSFET developed to solve this problem is investigated for channel thickness, oxide thickness, top and bottom gate voltage and doping concentration. Especially the subthreshold swing for asymmetric DGMOSFET to be able to be fabricated with different top and bottom gate structure is investigated in detail for bottom gate voltage and bottom oxide thickness. To obtain the analytical subthreshold swing, the analytical potential distribution is derived from Possion's equation, and Gaussian distribution function is used as doping profile. As a result, subthreshold swing is sensitively changed according to top and bottom gate voltage, channel doping concentration and channel dimension.

This paper analyzes the influence of tunneling current on threshold voltage shift by channel length of short channel asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. Tunneling current significantly increases by decrease of channel length in the region of 10 nm below, and the secondary effects such as threshold voltage shift occurs. Threshold voltage shift due to tunneling current is not negligible even in case of asymmetric DGMOSFET to develop for reduction of short channel effects. Off current consists of thermionic and tunneling current, and the ratio of tunneling current is increasing with reduction of channel length. The WKB(Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin) approximation is used to obtain tunneling current, and potential distribution in channel is hermeneutically derived. As a result, threshold voltage shift due to tunneling current is greatly occurred for decreasing of channel length in short channel asymmetric DGMOSFET. Threshold voltage is changing according to bottom gate voltages, but threshold voltage shifts is nearly constant.

This paper analyzed the phenomenon of drain induced barrier lowering(DIBL) for the ratio of channel length vs. thickness of asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. DIBL, the important secondary effect, is occurred for short channel MOSFET in which drain voltage influences on potential barrier height of source, and significantly affects on transistor characteristics such as threshold voltage movement. The series potential distribution is derived from Poisson's equation to analyze DIBL, and threshold voltage is defined by top gate voltage of asymmetric DGMOSFET in case the off current is 10^-7 A/m. Since asymmetric DGMOSFET has the advantage that channel length and channel thickness can significantly minimize, and short channel effects reduce, DIBL is investigated for the ratio of channel length vs. thickness in this study. As a results, DIBL is greatly influenced by the ratio of channel length vs. thickness. We also know DIBL is greatly changed for bottom gate voltage, top/bottom gate oxide thickness and channel doping concentration.

This paper analyzes the ratio of tunneling current for channel doping concentration of sub-10 nm asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. The ratio of tunneling current for off current in subthreshold region increases in the region of channel length of 10 nm below. Even though asymmetric DGMOSFET is developed to reduce short channel effects, the increase of tunneling current in sub-10 nm is inevitable. As the ratio of tunneling current in off current according to channel doping concentration is calculated in this study, the influence of tunneling current to occur in short channel is investigated. To obtain off current to consist of thermionic emission and tunneling current, the analytical potential distribution is obtained using Poisson equation and tunneling current using WKB(Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin). As a result, tunneling current is greatly changed for channel doping concentration in sub-10 nm asymmetric DGMOSFET, specially with parameters of channel length, channel thickness, and top/bottom gate oxide thickness and voltage.

This paper analyzes the deviation of tunneling current for the ratio of top and bottom gate oxide thickness of short channel asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. The ratio of tunneling current for off current significantly increases if channel length reduces to 5 nm. This short channel effect occurs for asymmetric DGMOSFET having different top and bottom gate oxide structure. The ratio of tunneling current in off current with parameters of channel length and thickness, doping concentration, and top/bottom gate voltages is calculated in this study, and the influence of tunneling current to occur in short channel is investigated. The analytical potential distribution is obtained using Poisson equation and tunneling current using WKB(Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin). As a result, tunneling current is greatly changed for the ratio of top and bottom gate oxide thickness in short channel asymmetric DGMOSFET, specially according to channel length, channel thickness, doping concentration, and top/bottom gate voltages.

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 analyzed the relation of conduction path and subthreshold swing for doping profile in channel of asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. Since the channel size of asymmetric DGMOSFET is greatly small and number of impurity is few, the high doping channel is analyzed. The analytical potential distribution is derived from Possion's equation, and Gaussian distribution function is used as doping profile. The conduction path and subthreshold swing are derived from this analytical potential distribution, and those are investigated for variables of doping profile, projected range and standard projected deviation, according to the change of channel length and thickness. As a result, subthreshold swing is reduced when conduction path is approaching to top gate, and that is increased with a decrease of channel length and a increase of channel thickness due to short channel effects.

본 연구에서는 비대칭 이중게이트(double gate; DG) MOSFET의 채널길이에 대한 문턱전압이하 스윙의 변화에 대하여 분석하였다. 문턱전압이하 스윙은 트랜지스터의 디지털특성을 결정하는 중요한 요소로서 채널길이가 감소하면 특성이 저하되는 문제가 나타나고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 개발된 DGMOSFET의 문턱전압이하 스윙의 채널길이에 대한 변화를 채널두께, 산화막두께, 상하단 게이트 전압 및 도핑농도 등에 따라 조사하고자 한다. 특히 하단 게이트 구조를 상단과 달리 제작할 수 있는 비대칭 DGMOSFET에 대하여 문턱전압이하 스윙을 분석함으로써 하단 게이트 전압 및 하단 산화막 두께 등에 대하여 자세히 관찰하였다. 문턱전압이하 스윙의 해석학적 모델을 구하기 위하여 포아송방정식에서 해석학적 전위분포모델을 유도하였으며 도핑분포함수는 가우스분포함수를 사용하였다. 결과적으로 문턱전압이하 스윙은 상하단 게이트 전압 및 채널도핑농도 그리고 채널의 크기에 매우 민감하게 변화하고 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
