Recently there has been tremendous progress made in the research of novel nanotechnology for future nanoelectronic applications. In particular, several emerging nanoelectronic devices such as carbon-nanotube field-effect transistors (FETs), Si nanowire FETs, and planar III-V compound semiconductor (e.g., InSb, InAs) FETs, all hold promise as potential device candidates to be integrated onto the silicon platform for enhancing circuit functionality and also for extending Moore's Law. For high-performance and low-power logic transistor applications, it is important that these research devices are frequently benchmarked against the existing Si logic transistor data in order to gauge the progress of research. In this paper, we use four key device metrics to compare these emerging nanoelectronic devices to the state-of-the-art planar and nonplanar Si logic transistors. These four metrics include: 1) CV/I or intrinsic gate delay versus physical gate length L/sub g/; 2) energy-delay product versus L/sub g/; 3) subthreshold slope versus L/sub g/; and 4) CV/I versus on-to-off-state current ratio I/sub ON//I/sub OFF/. The results of this benchmarking exercise indicate that while these novel nanoelectronic devices show promise and opportunities for future logic applications, there still remain shortcomings in the device characteristics and electrostatics that need to be overcome. We believe that benchmarking is a key element in accelerating the progress of nanotechnology research for logic transistor applications. 相似文献

We show experimental evidence of surface phonon scattering in the high-/spl kappa/ dielectric being the primary cause of channel electron mobility degradation. Next, we show that midgap TiN metal-gate electrode is effective in screening phonon scattering in the high-/spl kappa/ dielectric from coupling to the channel under inversion conditions, resulting in improved channel electron mobility. We then show that other metal-gate electrodes, such as the ones with n+ and p+ work functions, are also effective in improving channel mobilities to close to those of the conventional SiO/sub 2//poly-Si stack. Finally, we demonstrate this mobility degradation recovery translates directly into high drive performance on high-/spl kappa//metal-gate CMOS transistors with desirable threshold voltages. 相似文献

Position profiling the interface trap density along the channel length of metal-oxide-silicon transistors by the Direct-Current Current-Voltage method is illustrated for five density variations: zero, peaked in drain junction space-charge layer, constant in channel, nonconstant in channel, and peaked in drain junction space-charge layer and nonconstant in channel. The interface trap densities were monitored by MOS transistor's d.c. body current and the density profiles were obtained from the body-drain and body-source differential conductance versus drain or source bias voltage. An experimental demonstration is given for a 1.6 μm n-channel Si MOS transistor with about 1011 traps/cm2 generated by channel hot electron stress 相似文献

A direct-current current-voltage (DCIV) measurement technique of interface and oxide traps on oxidized silicon is demonstrated. It uses the gate-controlled parasitic bipolar junction transistor of a metal-oxide-silicon field-effect transistor in a p/n junction isolation well to monitor the change of the oxide and interface trap density. The dc base and collector currents are the monitors, hence, this technique is more sensitive and reliable than the traditional ac methods for determination of fundamental kinetic rates and transistor degradation mechanisms, such as charge pumping 相似文献

Areally nonuniform distribution of oxide charge gives a significant distortion in the gate capacitance and subthreshold DC drain current versus DC gate voltage characteristics. This distortion prevents a reliable determination of the spatial profile of interface and oxide traps generated when a MOS transistor is subjected to channel hot carrier stress. A new procedure is demonstrated which separates the nonuniform oxide charge distribution from interface traps by combining the analysis of two experimental DC characteristics: the subthreshold drain-current and the DC base recombination current versus the gate voltage 相似文献

Accurate measurement of MOS transistor inversion capacitance with a physical silicon dioxide thickness less than 20 Å requires correction for the direct tunneling leakage. This work presents a capacitance model and extraction based on the application of a lossy transmission line model to the MOS transistor. This approach properly accounts for the leakage current distribution along the channel and produces a gate length dependent correction factor for the measured capacitance that overcomes discrepancies produced through use of previously reported discrete element based models. An extraction technique is presented to determine the oxide's tunneling and channel resistance of the transmission line equivalent circuit. This model is confirmed by producing consistent C0x measurements for several different gate lengths with physical silicon dioxide thickness of 9, 12, and 18 Å 相似文献

Fully-depleted (FD) tri-gate CMOS transistors with 60 nm physical gate lengths on SOI substrates have been fabricated. These devices consist of a top and two side gates on an insulating layer. The transistors show near-ideal subthreshold gradient and excellent DIBL behavior, and have drive current characteristics greater than any non-planar devices reported so far, for correctly-targeted threshold voltages. The tri-gate devices also demonstrate full depletion at silicon body dimensions approximately 1.5 - 2 times greater than either single gate SOI or non-planar double-gate SOI for similar gate lengths, indicating that these devices are easier to fabricate using the conventional fabrication tools. Comparing tri-gate transistors to conventional bulk CMOS device at the same technology node, these non-planar devices are found to be competitive with similarly-sized bulk CMOS transistors. Furthermore, three-dimensional (3-D) simulations of tri-gate transistors with transistor gate lengths down to 30 nm show that the 30 nm tri-gate device remains fully depleted, with near-ideal subthreshold swing and excellent short channel characteristics, suggesting that the tri-gate transistor could pose a viable alternative to bulk transistors in the near future. 相似文献
