The carrier mobility in low-field specifically in parabolic energy region of one-dimensional graphene nanoribbon (GNR) band energy is presented in this work. Low-field mobility model describe the carrier transport and its dependency factors when dealing with degenerate and non-degenerate principals. The result shows that the low-field mobility strongly depends on the temperature in the non-degenerate regime in which it sharply decreases with increasing temperature in the range of 10–250 K but the mobility is less affected by the temperature above 250 K. The effect of varying the GNR width to the mobility is also demonstrated in this work. In addition, it is also shown that the mobility depends on the carrier concentration in degenerate domain in which it increases at higher carrier concentrations.

The variability of the low-frequency (LF) noise in n-channel MOSFETs fabricated on an Ultra-Thin Buried Oxide (UTBOX) Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) substrate has been studied and compared with the variability in the threshold voltage and low-field mobility of the same devices. No correlation has been found between the noise magnitude and the DC parameters, suggesting that the traps responsible for the current fluctuations do not affect the latter. A possible explanation is that the LF noise is dominated by Generation-Recombination (GR) centers in the silicon film, which have less impact on the drain current.

The strain-dependence of electron transport in bulk Si and deep-submicron MOSFETs is investigated by full-band Monte Carlo simulation. On the bulk level, the drift velocity at medium field strengths is still enhanced above Ge-contents of 20% in the substrate, where the low-field mobility is already saturated, while the saturation velocity remains unchanged under strain. In an n-MOSFET with a metallurgical channel length of 50nm, the saturation drain current is enhanced by up to 11%, but this maximum improvement is essentially already achieved at a Ge-content of 20% emphasizing the role of the low-field mobility as a key indicator of device performance in the deep-submicron regime.
