With fin width decreasing from 100 nm to 7 nm, the electric field induced by the lateral gates increases and therefore the influence of back gate on the threshold voltage weakens. For a narrow and tall fin, the lateral gates mainly control the channel and therefore the effect of back gate decreases. A simple two-dimensional (2D) potential model is proposed for the subthreshold region of junctionless SO1 FinFET. TCAD simulations validate our model. It can be used to extract the threshold voltage and doping concentration. In addition, the tuning of back gate on the threshold voltage can be predicted.展开更多

Based on this principle, the floating layer can pin the potential for modulating bulk field. In particular, the accumulated high concentration of holes at the bottom of the NFL can efficiently shield the electric field of the SOI layer and enhance the dielectric field in the buried oxide layer (BOX). At variation of back-gate bias, the shielding charges of NFL can also eliminate back-gate effects. The simulated results indicate that the breakdown voltage (BV) is increased from 315 V to 558 V compared to the conventional reduced surface field (RESURF) SOI (CSOI) LDMOS, yielding a 77% improvement. Furthermore, due to the field shielding effect of the NFL, the device can maintain the same breakdown voltage of 558 V with a thinner BOX to resolve the thermal problem in an SOI device.展开更多

The extended gate consists of a P– region and two diodes in series. In the on-state with VGD〉 0, an electron accumulation layer is formed along the drift region surface under the AG. It provides an ultra-low resistance current path along the whole drift region surface and thus the novel device obtains a low temperature distribution. The R_on,sp is nearly independent of the doping concentration of the drift region. In the off-state, the AG not only modulates the surface electric field distribution and improves the BV, but also brings in a charge compensation effect to further reduce the R_on,sp. Moreover, the BE avoids vertical premature breakdown to obtain high BV and allows a uniform doping in the drift region, which avoids the variable lateral doping(VLD) and the "hot-spot" caused by the VLD. Compared with the VLD SOI LDMOS, the proposed device simultaneously reduces the R_on,sp by 70.2% and increases the BV from 776 V to 818 V.展开更多

Single-crystal ZnO NWs are synthesized by a hydrothermal method. The fabricated FETs exhibit excellent performance. When Vds=2.5 V, the peak transconductance of the FETs is 0.396 μS, the average electron mobility is 50.17 cm2/(V·s), the resistivity is 0.96 × 102 Ω·cm at Vgs = 0 V, and the current on/off ratio (Ion/Ioff) is approximately 105. ZnO NW-FET devices exposed to ultraviolet radiation (2.5 μW/cm2) exhibit punch-through and threshold voltage (Vth) shift (from-0.6 V to +0.7 V) and a decrease by almost half of the source-drain current (Ids, from 560 nA to 320 nA) due to drain-induced barrier lowering. Continued work is underway to reveal the intrinsic properties of suspended ZnO nanowires and to explore their device applications.展开更多

Single-crystalline ZnO nanowires were synthesized by a hydrothermal method, they were used as a suspended ZnO nanowire channel of back-gate field-effect transistors (FET). The fabricated suspended nanowire FETs showed a pchannel depletion mode, exhibited high on-off current ratio of -10^5. When VDS = 2.5V, the peak transconductances of the suspended FETs were 0.396 μS, the oxide capacitance was found to be 1.547 fF, the pinch-off voltage VTH was about 0.6 V, the electron mobility was on average 50.17cm2/Vs. The resistivity of the ZnO nanowire channel was estimated to be 0.96 × 10^2 Ω cm at VGS = 0 V. These characteristics revealed that the suspended nanowire FET fabricated by the photolithography process had excellent performance. Better contacts between the ZnO nanowire and metal electrodes could be improved through annealing and metal deposition using a focused ion beam.展开更多

This modification is stable and time invariant.In order to improve the back-gate threshold voltage,positive substrate bias was applied to NMOS devices and negative substrate bias was applied to PMOS devices.These results suggest that there is a leakage path between source and drain along the silicon island edge,and the application of large backgate bias with the source,drain and gate grounded can strongly affect this leakage path.So we draw the conclusion that the back-gate threshold voltage,which is directly related to the leakage current,can be influenced by back-gate stress.展开更多

By utilizing a split gate, an electron accumulation layer is formed near the surface of the n-drift region to improve current conduction capability during on-state operation. As a result, the specific on-resistance can be low- ered down to 74.7 m^2.cm2 for a 600 V device from simulation. Furthermore, under high-voltage and high-current conditions, electrons and holes flow as majority carriers in the n-drift region and p-type split gate, respectively. Due to charge compensation occurring between holes and electrons, the local electric field is reduced and impact ion- ization is weakened in the proposed device. Therefore, a higher on-state breakdown voltage at large V6s is obtained and snap-back is suppressed as well.展开更多

Compared with the conventional simulation method, the new one is more accordant with the actual conditions of a device that can be used in the high voltage circuit. The BV of the SOI p-channel LDMOS can be properly represented and the effect of reduced bulk field can be revealed by employing the new simulation method. Simulation results show that the off-state (on-state) BV of the SOI p-channel LDMOS can reach 741 (620) V in the 3μm-thick buried oxide layer, 50μm-length drift region, and at -400 V back-gate voltage, enabling the device to be used in a 400 V UHV integrated circuit.展开更多

Back gate n-channel metal-oxidesemiconductor field-effect transistors (nMOSFETs) are fabricated by using these In0.53Ga0.47As-OI structures with excellent electrical characteristics. Positive bias temperature instability (PBTI) and hot carrier injection (HCI) characterizations are performed for the In0.53Ga0.47As-OI nMOSFETs. It is confirmed that the In0.53Ga0.47 As-OI nMOSFETs with a thinner body thickness suffer from more severe degradations under both PBTI and HCr stresses. Moreover, the different evolutions of the threshold voltage and the saturation current of the UTB In0.53Ga0.47As-OI nMOSFETs may be due to the slow border traps.展开更多
