Design and experimental technology for 0.1-µm gate-length low-temperature operation FET's |
| |
Abstract: | The first device performance results are presented from experiments designed to assess FET technology feasibility in the 0.1-µm gate-length regime. Low-temperature device design considerations for these dimensions lead to a 0.15-V threshold and 0.6-V power supply, with a forward-biased substrate. Self-aligned and almost fully scaled devices and simple circuits were fabricated by direct-write electron-beam lithography at all levels, with gate lengths down to 0.07 µm. Measured device characteristics yielded over 750-mS/mm transconductance, which is the highest value obtained to date in Si FET's. |
