We present a subthreshold swing model for a symmetric junctionless double gate MOSFET. The scale length λ1 required to obtain the potential distribution using the Poisson's equation is a criterion for analyzing the short channel effect by an analytical model. In general, if the channel length Lg satisfies Lg > 1.5λ1, it is known that the analytical model can be sufficiently used to analyze short channel effects. The scale length varies depending on the channel and oxide thickness as well as the dielectric constant of the channel and the oxide film. In this paper, we obtain the scale length for a constant permittivity (silicon and silicon dioxide), and derive the relationship between the scale length and the channel length satisfying the error range within 5%, compared with a numerical method. As a result, when the thickness of the oxide film is reduced to 1 nm, even in the case of Lg < λ1, the analytical subthreshold swing model proposed in this paper is observed to satisfy the error range of 5%. However, if the oxide thickness is increased to 3 nm and the channel thickness decreased to 6 nm, the analytical model can be used only for the channel length of Lg > 1.8λ1.

This paper presents a study of the influence of variation of counter doping thickness on short channel effect in symmetric double-gate (DG) nano MOSFETs. Short channel effects are estimated from the computed values of current-voltage (I-V) characteristics. Two dimensional Quantum transport equations and Poisson equations are used to compute DG MOSFET characteristics. We found that the transconductance ($g_m$) and the drain conductance ($g_d$) increase with an increase in p-type counter-doping thickness ($T_c$). Very high value of transconductance ($g_m=38\;mS/{\mu}m$) is observed at 2.2 nm channel thickness. We have established that the threshold voltage of DG MOSFETs can be tuned by selecting the thickness of counter-doping in such device.

A two-dimensional treatment of the potential distribution under the depletion approximation is presented for poly-crystalline silicon thin film transistors. Green's function approach is adopted to solve the two-dimensional Poisson's equation. The solution for the potential distribution is derived using Neumann's boundary condition at the silicon-silicon di-oxide interface. The developed model gives insight into device behavior due to the effects of traps and grain-boundaries. Also short-channel effects and drain induced barrier lowering effects are incorporated in the model. The potential distribution and electric field variation with various device parameters is shown. An analysis of threshold voltage is also presented. The results obtained show good agreement with simulated results and numerical modeling based on the finite difference method, thus demonstrating the validity of our model.

This paper describes the short-channel effect(SCE), corner effect of nano-scale MuGFETs(Multiple-Gate FETs) by three-dimensional simulation. We can extract the equivalent gate number of MuGFETs(Double-gate=2, Tri-gate=3, Pi-gate=3.14, Omega-gate=3.4, GAA=4) by threshold voltage model. Using the extracted gate number(n) we can calculate the natural length for each gate devices. We established a scaling theory for MuGFETs, which gives a optimization to avoid short channel effects for the device structure(silicon thickness, gate oxide thickness). It is observed that the comer effects decrease with the reduction of doping concentration and gate oxide thickness when the radius of curvature is larger than 17 % of the channel width.

This study has presented the analysis of breakdown voltage for a double-gate metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) based on the doping distribution of the Gaussian function. The double-gate MOSFET is a next generation transistor that shrinks the short channel effects of the nano-scaled CMOSFET. The degradation of breakdown voltage is a highly important short channel effect with threshold voltage roll-off and an increase in subthreshold swings. The analytical potential distribution derived from Poisson's equation and the Fulop's avalanche breakdown condition have been used to calculate the breakdown voltage of a double-gate MOSFET for the shape of the Gaussian doping distribution. This analytical potential model is in good agreement with the numerical model. Using this model, the breakdown voltage has been analyzed for channel length and doping concentration with parameters such as projected range and standard projected deviation of Gaussian function. As a result, since the breakdown voltage is greatly changed for the shape of the Gaussian function, the channel doping distribution of a double-gate MOSFET has to be carefully designed.

This paper have analyzed the change of breakdown voltage for conduction path of double gate(DG) MOSFET. The low breakdown voltage among the short channel effects of DGMOSFET have become obstacles of device operation. The analytical solution of Poisson's equation have been used to analyze the breakdown voltage, and Gaussian function been used as carrier distribution to analyze closely for experimental results. The change of breakdown voltages for conduction path have been analyzed for device parameters such as channel length, channel thickness, gate oxide thickness and doping concentration. Since this potential model has been verified in the previous papers, we have used this model to analyze the breakdown voltage. Resultly, we know the breakdown voltage is greatly influenced on the change of conduction path for device parameters of DGMOSFET.

The device performance of nano-scale center-channel (CC) double-gate (DG) MOSFET structure was investigated by numerically solving coupled Schr$\"{o}$dinger-Poisson and current continuity equations in a self-consistent manner. The CC operation and corresponding enhancement of current drive and transconductance of CC-NMOS are confirmed by comparing with the results of DG-NMOS which are performed under the condition of 10-80 nm gate length. Device optimization was theoretically performed in order to minimize the short-channel effects in terms of subthreshold swing, threshold voltage roll-off, and drain-induced barrier lowering. The simulation results indicate that DG-MOSFET structure including CC-NMOS is a promising candidates and quantum-mechanical modeling and simulation calculating the coupled Schr$\"{o}$dinger-Poisson and current continuity equations self-consistently are necessary for the application to sub-40 nm MOSFET technology.

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.

Drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL) is one of the main parameters employed to indicate the short-channel effect for nano metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). We propose a new physical model of the DIBL effect under two-dimensional approximations based on the energy-conservation equation for channel electrons in FETs, which is different from the former field-penetration model. The DIBL is caused by lowering of the effective potential barrier height seen by the channel electrons because a lateral channel electric field results in an increase in the average kinetic energy of the channel electrons. The channel length, temperature, and doping concentration-dependent DIBL effects predicted by the proposed physical model agree well with the experimental data and simulation results reported in Nature and other journals.
