Quantum effects in the poly-gate are analyzed in two dimensions using the density-gradient method, and their impact on the short-channel effect of double-gate MOSFETs is investigated. The 2-D effects of quantum mechanical depletion at the gate to sidewall oxide is identified as the cause of large charge-dipole formation at the corner of the gate. The bias dependence of the charge dipole shows that the magnitude of the dipole peak-value increases in the subthreshold region and there is a large difference in carrier and potential distribution compared to the classical solution. Using evanescent-nude analysis, it is found that the quantum effect in the poly-gate substantially increases the short-channel effect and it is more significant than the quantum effect in the Si film. The penetration of potential contours into the poly-gate due to the dipole formation at the drain side of the gate corner is identified as the reason for the substantial increase in short-channel effects.

In this paper, design and implement 60W Doherty power amplifiers for 3GPP repeater and base station transceiver system. Efficiency improvement and high power property of Doherty power amplifier is distinguishable; however implementation of assistance amplifer is difficult, though. To solve the problem, therefore, GCHD (Gate Control Hybrid Doherty) power amplifier is embodied to gate bias adjusament circuit of assistance amplifier to General Doherty power amplifier. Experiment result shows that $2.11\~2.17GHz$, 3GPP operating frequency band, with 62.55 dB gain, PEP output is 50,76 dBm, W-CDMA average power is 47.81 dBm, and -40.05 dBc ACLR characteristic in 5MHz offset frequency band. Each of the parameter satisfied amplifier specification which we want to design. Especially, GCHD power amplifier shows proper efficiency performance improvement in uniformity ACLR than general power amplifier.

In this paper, a 512b MTP memory IP is designed by using MTP memory cells which are written by the FN (Fowler-Nordheim) tunneling method with only MV (medium voltage) devices of 5V which uses the back-gate bias, that is VNN (negative voltage). The used MTP cell consists of a CG (control gate) capacitor, a TG (tunnel gate) transistor, and a select transistor. To reduce the size of the MTP memory cell, just two PWs (P-wells) are used: one for the TG and the select transistors; and the other for the CG capacitor. In addition, just one DNW (deep N-well) is used for the entire 512b memory cell array. VPP and VNN generators supplying pumping voltages of ${\pm}8V$ which are insensitive to PVT variations since VPP and VNN level detectors are designed by a regulated voltage, V1V (=1V), provided by a BGR voltage generator.

During several method of improvement efficient, We analyzed Doherty Amplifier That used by simple circuit and 180w PEP LDMOS to analyze improvement of efficient and linearity. We for testing performance of Doherty Amplifier compared with Balanced Class AB, the experimental results show when Peaking Amp $V_gs.P$=1.53V, the efficiency is increased at Maximum 11.6$\%$. After finding optimum bias point of linearity improvement by manual tuning gate bias, when WCDMA 4FA $V_gs.P$=3.68V IMSR could be increased maximum 3.34dB. especially, when we match bias point of Peaking amp at 1.53V, we could get a excellent efficiency increase and have fUR under -3203c at output power 43dBm.

A Dual metal gate stack cylindrical/ surrounded gate MOSFET (DMGSA CGT/SGT MOSFET) has been proposed and an analytical model has been developed to examine the impact of this structure in suppressing short channel effects and in enhancing the device performance. It is demonstrated that incorporation of gate stack along with dual metal gate architecture results in improvement in short channel immunity. It is also examined that for DMGSA CGT/SGT the minimum surface potential in the channel reduces, resulting increase in electron velocity and thereby improving the carrier transport efficiency. Furthermore, the device has been analyzed at different bias point for both single material gate stack architecture (SMGSA) and dual material gate stack architecture (DMGSA) and found that DMGSA has superior characteristics as compared to SMGSA devices. The analytical results obtained from the proposed model agree well with the simulated results obtained from 3D ATLAS Device simulator.

This paper presents a comprehensive study on threshold voltage $(V_{th})$ control of organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) with dual-gate structure. The fabrication of dual-gate pentacene OTFTs using plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposited (PEALD) 150 nm thick $Al_{2}O_{3}$ as a bottom gate dielectric and 300 nm thick parylene or PEALD 200 nm thick $Al_{2}O_{3}$ as both a top gate dielectric and a passivation layer was investigated. The $V_{th}$ of OTFT with 300 nm thick parylene as a top gate dielectric was changed from 4.7 V to 1.3 V and that with PEALD 200 nm thick $Al_{2}O_{3}$ as a top gate dielectric was changed from 1.95 V to -9.8 V when the voltage bias of top gate electrode was changed from -10 V to 10 V. The change of $V_{th}$ of OTFT with dual-gate structure was successfully investigated by an analysis of electrostatic potential.

The 1-D numerical model and its extraction methodology are suggested and these simulation results for the S-swing as a function of back-gate voltage are well matched with the measured. S-swing characteristics are analyzed using PD-SOI devices with enough deeper regions up to substrates. The PD-SOI device doesn't have to be short channel to see the anomalous subthreshold phenomena based on the back gate bias. This results recommend to operate better SOI device performances by controlling the back gate voltages. So SOI performances will be much optimistic with proper control of the back-gate voltage for the already- proven- high- performance (APHP) SOI VLSIs.

This paper introduces a gate drive IC for power modules with shoot-through immunity. A new approach uses a bootstrap diode as a high-side voltage bias and a level shift function at the same time. Therefore, the gate drive circuit becomes a simple and low-cost without conventional level shift functions such as HVIC(High-Voltage IC), optocoupler and transformer. The proposed gate drive IC is designed and fabricated using the Dongbu-Hitek's 0.35um BD350BA process. It has been tested and verified with IGBT modules.

In this study, gate leakage current mechanism has been analyzed for GaAs MESFET with different temperatures ranging from 27$^{\circ}C$ to 300$^{\circ}C$ . It is expected that the thermionic and field emission at the MS contact will dominate the current flow. Thermal cycle is applied to test the reliability of the device. From the results, it is proved that thermal stress gradually increases the gate leakage current at the same bias conditions and leads to the breakdown and failure mechanism which is critical in the field equipment. Finally the gate contact under the repeated thermal shock has been tested to check the quality of Schottky barrier and the current will be expressed in the analytical from to associate with the electrical characteristics of the device.
