This paper has studied drain induced barrier lowering(DIBL) for Double Gate MOSFET(DGMOSFET) using analytical potential model. Two dimensional analytical potential model has been presented for symmetrical DGMOSFETs with process parameters. DIBL is very important short channel effects(SCEs) for nano structures since drain voltage has influenced on source potential distribution due to reduction of channel length. DIBL has to be small with decrease of channel length, but it increases with decrease of channel length due to SCEs. This potential model is used to obtain the change of DIBL for DGMOSFET correlated to channel doping profiles. Also device parameters including channel length, channel thickness, gate oxide thickness and doping intensity have been used to analyze DIBL.

In the present work a methodology to minimize short channel effects (SCEs) by modulating the effective channel length is proposed to design 25 nm single and double gate-source/drain underlap MOSFETs. The analysis is based on the evaluation of the ratio of effective channel length to natural/ characteristic length. Our results show that for this ratio to be greater than 2, steeper source/drain doping gradients along with wider source/drain roll-off widths will be required for both devices. In order to enhance short channel immunity, the ratio of source/drain roll-off width to lateral straggle should be greater than 2 for a wide range of source/drain doping gradients.

Glass forming technology is used to form channels of external electrode flat fluorescent lamps (FFL). The efficiency of FFL depends on the number and the length of the channels. Five FFLs with same size ($300\;mm{\times}80\;mm$), different channel number, and different channel length were fabricated. The electrical and optical characteristics of 5 FFLs were evaluated. It was found that the FFL with one channel with its channel length of 1,110 mm and channel width of 7 mm corner width was shown to have the highest efficiency at room temperature operation.

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.

In this study, we investigate the influence of channel length of bendable a-Si:H thin film transistors (TFTs) on their electrical characteristics as a function of bending strain. Under a tensile strain of 1.69%, $8{\mu}m$-channel-length TFT has the threshold voltage shift up to 5.25 V, while $100{\mu}m$-channel-length TFT operates stably.

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.

The electrical stress of short channel polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin film transistor (TFT) has been investigated. The device characteristics of short channel poly-Si TFT with 5$\mu$m channel length has been observed to be significantly degraded such as a large shift in threshold voltage and asymmetric phenomena after the electrical stress. The dominant degradation mechanism in long channel poly-Si TFT's with 10$\mu$m and 20$\mu$m channel length respectively is charage trappling in gate oxide while that in short channel device with 5.mu.m channel length is defect creation in active poly-Si layer. We propose that the increased defect density within depletion region near drain junction due to high electric field which could be evidenced by kink effect, constitutes the important reason for this significant degradation in short channel poly-Si TFT. The proposed model is verified by comparing the amounts of the defect creation and the charge trapping from the strechout voltage.

Organic field-effect transistors (OFETS) are of interest for use in widely area electronic applications. We fabricated a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) based field-effect transistor with varying channel length. The CuPc FET device was made a top-contact type and the channel length was a $100\;{\mu}m,\;50\;{\mu}m,\;40\;{\mu}m,\;and\;30\;{\mu}m$ and the channel width was a fixed at 3 mm. We observed a typical current-voltage (I-V) characteristics in CuPc FET with varying channel length (L) and we calculated the effective mobility. Also, we measured a capacitance-voltage (C-V) by applied bias voltage with varying frequency at 43, 100, 1000 Hz.

본 연구에서는 Symmetric NMOSFET의 channel length에 따른 전기적 특성 분석에 관한 연구를 진행하였다. 특성 분석에 사용된 소자의 Gate oxide 두께는 6 nm 이며, 채널 Width/Length는 각각 10/10 ${\mu}m$, 10/0.2 ${\mu}m$ 이다. Drain Avalanche Hot Carrier(DAHC) 테스트를 진행하기 위하여 각각 스트레스 조건을 추출하였고, 조건에 해당되는 스트레스를 1700초 동안 인가하였다. 스트레스 후, Channel length가 10 ${\mu}m$과 0.2 ${\mu}m$인 두 소자의 특성을 측정, 분석결과 10 ${\mu}m$의 소자의 경우 문턱전압(VT)과 Subthreshold swing (SS)의 변화가 없었지만 0.2 ${\mu}m$의 소자의 경우 0.42V의 (from 0.67V to 1.09V) 문턱전압 변화 (VTH)와 71 mV/dec (from 79 mV/dec to 150 mV/dec))의 Swing (SS)변화를 보여 스트레스 후에 Interface trap이 증가하였음을 알 수 있다. off-state leakage current를 측정 결과 0.2 ${\mu}m$ 의 경우 leakage current의 양이 증가하였음을 알 수 있고 이는 드레인 부근에 증가된 interface trap에 의한 현상으로 판단된다. 상기 결과와 같이 DAHC 스트레스에 의한 소자의 열화 현상은 Channel length가 짧을수록 더 크게 의존하는 것을 확인하였다.

A new paired gate-source voltage RF capacitance-voltage (C-V) method of extracting the effective channel length and parasitic capacitance using the intersection between two closely spaced linear regression lines of the gate capacitance versus gate length measured from S-parameters is proposed to remove errors from conventional C-V methods. Physically verified results are obtained at the gate-source voltage range where the slope of the gate capacitance versus gate-source voltage is maximized in the inversion region. The accuracy of this method is demonstrated by finding extracted value corresponding to the metallurgical channel length.
