Fabrication technologies and electrical characteristics of a diffusion self-aligned MOS transistor (DSA MOST) or a double-diffused MOS transistor (DMOST) are discussed in comparison with a conventional short-channel MOS transistor as a fundamental device for a VLSI. The symmetrical DSA MOS LSI with enhancement depletion configurations requires six photolithographic steps and the number of the steps is the same as that of an NMOS LSI with small physical dimensions. The only difference is the step orders of the enhancement channel doping in these devices. The lowering effects of the threshold voltage and the source drain breakdown voltage are smaller in the DSA MOST than in the conventional MOS transistor. The drain current ID of the symmetrical DSA MOS transistor is, respectively, 1.13 (in the nonsaturation region) and 1.33 (in the saturation region) times larger than that of the conventional short-channel NMOS transistor at the effective gate voltage of 3.0 V. The improvement of the short-channel effect, the current voltage characteristics, and the power-delay product are obtained by the scaling of the DSA MOS transistor. 相似文献

An attempt is made to derive rigorous analysis for the short-channel MOS transistor on the basis of the 2-D Poisson's equation. The analysis is able to predict a correct dependence of the threshold voltage on channel length and drain voltage, avoids the need for the definition of an average depletion charge density, and gives more physical insight into the short-channel effects 相似文献

Simple expressions of threshold and subthreshold characteristics for a very small buried-channel MOSFET is derived from a model of majority-carrier distribution along the channel. The carrier distribution is determined from the Poisson equation for a high-low junction. The basic formula for the subthreshold characteristic is derived from the majority-carrier drift-current equation. The theory is compared with the measured threshold voltages and the measured inverse semilogarithmic slopes of subthreshold current. The theoretical curves are in a reasonable agreement with experimental results. It is shown for a buried-channel MOSFET having a channel length less than 1 μm that the threshold and subthreshold characteristics change abruptly as the channel length is reduced because the majority-carrier concentration increases through the carrier diffusion from the source and drain terminals. The theoretical estimation shows that buried-channel MOSFETs will have the less short-channel effect than surface-channel MOSFETs for a small drain voltage. The theory also predicts that the buried-channel MOSFET can be scaled down in the same way as the surface-channel MOSFET. 相似文献

In this paper, an analytical model for threshold voltage of short-channel MOSFETs is presented. For such devices, the depletion regions due to source/drain junctions occupy a large portion of the channel, and hence are very important for accurate modeling. The proposed threshold voltage model is based on a realistic physically-based model for the depletion layer depth along the channel that takes into account its variation due to the source and drain junctions. With this, the unrealistic assumption of a constant depletion layer depth has been removed, resulting in an accurate prediction of the threshold voltage. The proposed model can predict the drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) effect and hence, the threshold voltage roll-off characteristics quite accurately. The model predictions are verified against the 2-D numerical device simulator, DESSIS of ISE TCAD. 相似文献

Two-dimensional analytical modeling of fully depleted DMG SOI MOSFET and evidence for diminished SCEs 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
A two-dimensional (2-D) analytical model for the surface potential variation along the channel in fully depleted dual-material gate silicon-on-insulator MOSFETs is developed to investigate the short-channel effects (SCEs). Our model includes the effects of the source/drain and body doping concentrations, the lengths of the gate metals and their work functions, applied drain and substrate biases, the thickness of the gate and buried oxide and also the silicon thin film. We demonstrate that the surface potential in the channel region exhibits a step function that ensures the screening of the drain potential variation by the gate near the drain resulting in suppressed SCEs like the hot-carrier effect and drain-induced barrier-lowering (DIBL). The model is extended to find an expression for the threshold voltage in the submicrometer regime, which predicts a desirable "rollup" in the threshold voltage with decreasing channel lengths. The accuracy of the results obtained using our analytical model is verified using 2-D numerical simulations. 相似文献

A detailed expression of the threshold voltage for a short-channel MOSFET is derived from a model of surface-potential distribution under the gate using a relationship of surface-channel charge neutrality. The theory is compared with the measured threshold voltages. The theoretical curves for threshold voltage over a wide range of drain and backgate voltage are in good agreement with experimental results. It is shown for a MOSFET having a channel length less than 2 μm that the body-bias constant increases as the drain voltage increases. The theory also predicts that the increase in backgate voltage leads to the reduction in short-channel effect for the shorter-channel case. 相似文献

MOS devices have become smaller and smaller as the integrated circuit technology advances. A thorough understanding of the device characteristics of these small-size devices is important. In this paper, three small-geometry effects; namely, short-channel effect (SCE), narrow-width effect (NWE), and minimum-size effect (MSE) (which combines SCE and NWE together) are discussed. The variations of threshold voltage, mobility, and drain current are illustrated for minimum-size devices. The threshold voltage decreases as channel length decreases but increases as device width decreases. Carrier mobility also decreases as the device size becomes small. Simple device models of minimum-size devices are proposed for threshold voltage and carrier mobility. Experimental results of threshold voltage, mobility, and drain current are compared with the calculated results. 相似文献

We present an analytical model of the threshold voltage of a short-channel MOSFET based on an explicit solution of two-dimensional Poisson's equation in the depletion region under the gate. This model predicts an exponential dependence on channel length (L), a linear dependence on drain voltage (VD ), and an inverse dependence on oxide capacitance (εox /tox ). An attractive feature of this model is that it provides an analytical closed-form expression for the threshold voltage as a function of material and device parameters (tox , VD , L, substrate bias, and substrate doping concentration) without making premature approximations. Also, this expression reduces to the corresponding expression for long-channel devices. 相似文献

A 0.18 μm nMOS structure with a vertically nonuniform low-impurity-density channel (LIDC) at 77 K has been studied at supply voltage below 1 volt. An abrupt Gaussian profile is used in the channel. The investigation is based on two-dimensional (2-D) energy transport simulation with appropriate models to account for quantum and low-temperature freeze-out effects. The study focuses on achieving high driving capability and low off-current at low supply voltage and on minimizing short-channel effects. Some guidelines are proposed for improving device performance and suppressing short-channel effects of the LIDC MOS devices. It is shown that at 77 K the optimized nonuniform LIDC 0.18 μm nMOS structure with an abrupt impurity channel profile at supply voltage as low as 0.9 V is able to provide a saturation drain current comparable to that of a room-temperature LIDC 0.1 μm nMOS device at 1.5 V. Furthermore, the 77 K LIDC 0.18 μm nMOS consumes considerably lower dynamic and standby power than the room-temperature 0.1 μm nMOS. These results suggest that the LIDC MOS structure with an abrupt channel profile is very suitable for low-power and high-speed ULSI applications at low temperature 相似文献

A simple yet accurate semi-empirical analytical model for simulating the anomalous threshold voltage behavior in submicrometer MOSFETs is reported. The increase in the threshold voltage with decreasing channel length has been modeled by assuming a bias-independent, but channel-length-dependent, fixed charge at the source and drain ends. The new model requires two extra parameters in addition to the usual short-channel threshold voltage model parameters. These two parameters represent the magnitude of the fixed charge and the length over which the charge is spread at the source and drain ends. The model shows excellent agreement with the experimental threshold voltage data (within 2%) for submicrometer devices with varying oxide thickness, junction depth, and channel doping concentration 相似文献

The threshold voltage, V th, of lightly doped drain (LDD) and non-LDD MOSFETs with effective channel lengths down to the deep-submicrometer range has been investigated. Experimental data show that in the very-short-channel-length range, the previously reported exponential dependence on channel length and the linear dependence on drain voltage no longer hold true. A simple quasi-two-dimensional model is used, taking into account the effects of gate oxide thickness, source/drain junction depth, and channel doping, to describe the accelerated V th on channel length due to their lower drain-substrate junction built-in potentials. LDD devices also show less V th dependence on drain voltage because the LDD region reduces the effective drain voltage. Based on consideration of the short-channel effects, the minimum acceptable length is determined 相似文献

The dependence of channel current in subthreshold operation upon drain, gate, and substrate voltages is formulated in terms of a simple model. The basic results are consistent with earlier approaches for long-channel devices. For short-channel devices, the variation of current with drain voltage up to the punch-through voltage is accurately described. The threshold voltage of a short-channel device as a function of applied voltages follows as a natural result of the derivation. Results are presented which confirm the theory over a wide range of drain and gate voltages. With the application of substrate bias it is concluded from the data and the theory that two-dimensional effects can cause dramatic increases in the drain conductance. 相似文献

Predictions of gate threshold voltage and punchthrough voltage have been made for short-channel VDMOS and UMOS field-effect transistors using exact, two-dimensional numerical analysis. In these devices the doping concentration varies laterally from source to drain. The threshold voltage is found to be related to the maximum value of channel doping. This correspondence becomes poorer as the channel length is diminished since punchthrough current begins to influence the threshold voltage for short-channel devices. Surface punch-through is predicted for the VDMOSFET whereas bulk punchthrough is found in the UMOS device. A correspondence between the results of two-dimensional computer simulation of punchthrough and the estimations of one-dimensional simplified theory is found. 相似文献

Hot-electron degradation in short-channel (0.50 mu m and 0.83 mu m) double-implanted lightly doped drain (DI-LDD) devices was characterised using DC stress tests. Compared to lightly doped drain (LDD) devices of the same effective channel length L/sub eff/, the measurements indicate that channel hot-electron injection is more prevalent in devices with the p/sup +/-pocket implant due to a higher peak channel electric field. Degradation is more severe in both the drain current and transconductance. However, an improvement in short-channel effects was seen in DI-LDD devices over LDD devices. For the same L/sub eff/, the punch-through voltage was higher and the subthreshold swing lower for the DI-LDD devices.<> 相似文献

An analytical subthreshold surface potential model for short-channel pocket-implanted (double-halo) MOSFET is presented. The effect of the depletion layers around the source and drain junctions on channel depletion layer depth, which is very important for short-channel devices, is included. Using this surface potential, a drift-diffusion based analytical subthreshold drain current model for short-channel pocket-implanted MOSFETs is also proposed. A physically-based empirical modification of the channel conduction layer thickness that was originally proposed for relatively long-channel conventional device is made for such short-channel double-halo devices. Very good agreement for both the surface potential and drain current is observed between the model calculation and the prediction made by the 2-D numerical device simulation using Dessis. 相似文献

An n-channel double ion implanted (or diffused] lateral V-MOS structure (D-V-MOS) for LSI digital application is presented. The effective channel is formed by the vertical difference in an n-type and a p-type impurity profile on a high resistive p-type substrate through a V-groove technique. Thus the threshold voltage and effective channel length of the D-V-MOS can be directly and accurately controlled by ion implantation. Very short-channel length (0.1 to 0.2 /spl mu/m) MOS devices with good electrical characteristics can thus be realized. A simple fabrication process with 5 masking steps for an n-channel self-isolated self-aligned enhancement/depletion (E/D) D-V-MOST device is presented. The fabrication procedures are described. Special features associated with the V structure are discussed. The short-channel effect is treated. It is found that the substrate sensitivity due to source-substrate biasing for a short-channel D-V-MOS is reduced significantly, even with a 1000-/spl Aring/ gate oxide thickness. 相似文献

Tho substrain current against gate voltage characteristics or relatively short n-channel MOS transistors were examined for various substrate and drain voltages, channel length and surface doping conditions : namely without implantation, implantation for threshold voltage adjustment and implantation for depletion mode device types A, B and C, respectively. The substrate current may increase or decrease when increasing the aubstrate voltage magnitude duo to the fact that the drain current decreases and the multiplication factor increases with the substrate bias. The substrate current increases when decreasing the channel length. It increases for the devices of type B, but is lower for type C. These experimental results were qualitatively explained by using published models in which the substrate current is caused by low-level impact ionization within the pinched-off region. A simple model in which the ionization coefficient and the field derivative with respect to x wore assumed to be power-law field-dependent correctly predicts the behaviour of the substrate current. 相似文献

As the channel length of MOS transistors reduces to the submicron dimension, the punchthrough becomes more of a surface-initiated and gate-controlled phenomenon. A surface diffusion current (Isdif) originates from the injection of minority carriers from the source junction due to the combined effect of drain-induced-barrier-lowering (DIBL) and surface-band-bending (Δφso). The DIBL effect increases rapidly with decreasing channel length. In addition, the extracted Δφso from the punchthrough current indicates that surface space charges at the source edge shift from the accumulation/depletion mode for long submicron devices (≈0.62 μm) to the strong-inversion mode for deep submicron devices (≈0.12 μm). In general, Isdif dominates over the low drain bias range and eventually converts to the bulk space-charge-limited current (Iscl) as the drain bias increases and the source/drain depletion regions connect. The drain bias for this conversion to occur strongly depends on the channel dimension. Only intermediate submicron devices (≈0.37 μm) in this study clearly show both the surface and bulk (space-charge-limited) punchthrough components. For long submicron devices, Isdif essentially dominates, while for deep submicron devices, it converts rapidly to Iscl over the drain bias range investigated. A semi-empirical closed form equation is proposed to describe both Isdif and Iscl and their merging over the entire range of drain bias 相似文献

Fundamental MOS device performances are experimentally analyzed for the projected three levels of scaled-down, silicon-gate devices envisioned in the next decade. The final third-level device having 20 nm thick gate oxide and 0.7 μm effective channel length will have vertical dimension only 0.35 times that of the present 3 μm lithography level. Principal device characteristics discussed are threshold voltage, source to drain breakdown voltage, and effective carrier mobility under practical applied voltage conditions, mainly for dynamic MOS memory operation.
It is found that breakdown voltage reduction is the main obstacle hindering down-scaling, and also that the mobility lowering in the shorter channel length region reduces the merits of down-scaling. MOS device performances for the coming 1 μm geometry level LSI's under practical operation conditions are discussed on the basis of the experimental results obtained. 相似文献
