Models and simulations of gate tunneling current for thinoxide MOSFETs and Double-Gate SOIs are discussed. A guideline in design of leaky MOS capacitors is proposed and resonant gate tunneling current in DG SOI simulated based on quantum-mechanicalmodels. Gate tunneling current in fully-depleted, double-gate SOI MOSFETs is characterized based on quantum-mechanical principles. The simulated $I_G-V_G$ of double-gate SOI has negative differential resistance like that of the resonant tunnel diodes.

For an optimum device design of nano-scale SOI devices, this paper describes the short channel effects of multi-gate structures SOI MOSFETs such as double gate, triple gate and quadruple gate, as well as a new proposed Pi gate using computer simulation. The simulation has been performed with different channel doping concentrations, channel widths, silicon film thickness, and vertical gate extension depths of Pi gate. From the simulation results, it is found that Pi gate devices have a large margin in determination of doping concentrations, channel widths and film thickness comparing to double and triple gate devices because Pi gate devices offer a better short channel effects.

In this paper we analyze the influence of source/drain (S/D) extension region design for minimizing short channel effects (SCEs) in 25 nm gate length single and double gate Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) and Germanium-on-Insulator (GOI) MOSFETs. A design methodology, by evaluatingm the ratio of the effective channel length to the natural length for the different devices (single or double gate FETs) and technology (SOI or GOI), is proposed to minimize short channel effects (SCEs). The optimization of non-overlapped gate-source/drain i.e. underlap channel architecture is extremely useful to limit the degradation in SCEs caused by the high permittivity channel materials like Germanium as compared to that exhibited in Silicon based devices. Subthreshold slope and Drain Induced Barrier Lowering results show that steeper S/D gradients along with wider spacer regions are needed to suppress SCEs in GOI single/double gate devices as compared to Silicon based MOSFETs. A design criterion is developed to evaluate the minimum spacer width associated with underlap channel design to limit SCEs in SOI/GOI MOSFETs.

A new two-dimensional analytical model for dual-material double-gate fully-depleted SOI MOSFET with Pearson-IV type Doping Distribution is presented. An investigation of electrical MOSFET parameters i.e. drain current, transconductance, channel resistance and device capacitance in DM DG FD SOI MOSFET is carried out with Pearson-IV type doping distribution as it is essential to establish proper profiles to get the optimum performance of the device. These parameters are categorically derived keeping view of potential at the center (${\phi}_c$) of the double gate SOI MOSFET as it is more sensitive than the potential at the surface (${\phi}_s$). The proposed structure is such that the work function of the gate material (both sides) near the source is higher than the one near the drain. This work demonstrates the benefits of high performance proposed structure over their single material gate counterparts. The results predicted by the model are compared with those obtained by 2D device simulator ATLAS to verify the accuracy of the proposed model.

Electron mobility has been investigated theoretically in undoped double-gate (DG) MOSFETs of different channel architectures: a relaxed-Si DG SOI, a strained-Si (sSi) DG SSOI (strained-Si-on-insulator, containing no SiGe layer), and a strained-Si DG SGOI (strained-Si-on-SiGe-on-insulator, containing a SiGe layer) at 300K. Electron mobility in the DG SSOI device exhibits high enhancement relative to the DG SOI. In the DG SGOI devices the mobility is strongly suppressed by the confinement of electrons in much narrower strained-Si layers, as well as by the alloy scattering within the SiGe layer. As a consequence, in the DG SGOI devices with thinnest strained-Si layers the electron mobility may drop below the level of the relaxed DG SOI and the mobility enhancement expected from the strained-Si devices may be lost.

An analysis of the 1/f or flicker noise in FD n-channel Double Gate SOI MOSFET is proposed. In this paper, the variation of power spectral density (PSD) of the equivalent noise voltage and noise current with respect to frequency, channel length and gate-to-source voltage at various temperatures and exponent $C(i.e\;1/f^c$ is reported. The temperature is varied 125 K from to room temperature. The variation of PSD with respect to channel length down to $0.1{\mu}m$ technology is considered. It is analyzed that l/f noise in FD n-channel Double Gate SOI MOSFET is due to both carrierdensity fluctuations and mobility-fluctuations. But controversy still exits to its origin.

현재 게이트 길이가 100nm 이하의 MOSFET 소자를 구현할 때 가장 대두되는 문제인 short channel effect를 억제하는 방법으로 제안된 소자 중 하나가 double gate (DG) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) MOSFET이다. 그러나 DG SOI MOSFET는 두 게이트간의 align과 threshold voltage control 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 DG SOI MOSFET에서 이상적으로 게이트가 align된 구조와 back 게이트가 front 게이트보다 긴 non-align된 구조가 subthreshold 동작 영역에서 impact ionization에 미치는 영향에 대해 시뮬레이션을 통하여 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 게이트가 이상적으로 align된 구조보다 back 게이트가 front 게이트보다 긴 non-align된 구조가 게이트와 드레인이 overlap된 영역에서 impact ionization이 증가하였으며 게이트가 각각 n+ 폴리실리콘과 p+ 폴리실리콘을 가진 소자에서 두 게이트가 같은 work function을 가진 소자보다 높은 impact generation rate을 가짐을 알 수 있었다.

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.

In this thesis, in order to a equivalent circuit-analytical study for a symmetric double gate type MOSFET, we slove analytically the 2D Poisson's equation in a a silicon body. To solve the threshold voltage in a symmetric double gate type MOSFET from the derived expression for the surface potential which the two-dimensional potential distribution of a symmetric double gate type MOSFET is assumed approximately. This thesis can use short and long channel in a silicon body we introduce a new the threshold voltage model in a symmetric double gate type MOSFET and measure it the distance about the range of channel length up to 0.1 [${\mu}m$].

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.
