The subthreshold and high field operations are analysed as a function of device architecture. The special SOI parasitic phenomena, such as the floating body potential and temperature, are critically reviewed. The main limitations of submicron MOSFET are comparatively evaluated for various SOI structures. Short channel and hot carrier effects as well as the reliability of the SOI technology are investigated for gate length down to sub\|0 1 micron.展开更多

Simulation is performed at 70 nm technology node with supply voltage 1V for domino logic and DOIND logic based AND, OR, XOR and Half Adder circuits using the tanner EDA tool. Simulation results show that the proposed DOIND approach decreases the average leakage current by 68.83%, 66.6%, 77.86% and 74.34% for 2 input AND, OR, XOR and Half Adder respectively. The proposed approach also has 47.76% improvement in PDAP for the buffer circuit as compared to domino logic.展开更多

The results show that hot-carrier degradations on irradiated devices are greater than those without irradiation, especially for narrow channel device. The reason is attributed to charge traps in STI, which then induce different electric field and impact ionization rates during hotcarrier stress.展开更多
