In this paper, we present a drain current model for stressed short-channel MOSFET's. Stress conditions are chosen so that the interface states generated by hot-carriers are dominant. The defects generated during stress time are simulated by a spatio-temporal gaussian distribution. The parasitic source and drain resistances are included. We also investigate the impact of the interface charge density, generated during stress, on the transconductance. Simulation results show a significant degradation of the drain current versus stress time.

ABSTRACTRecently, we have experimentally demonstrated a very simply structured unipolar accumulation-type metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (AMOSFET) using grow-in-place silicon nanowires. The AMOSFET consists of a single doping type nanowire, metal source and drain contacts which are separated by a partially gated region. Despite its simple configuration, it is capable of high performance thereby offering the potential of a low manufacturing-cost transistor. Since the quality of the metal/semiconductor ohmic source and drain contacts impacts AMOSFET performance, we repot here on initial exploration of contact variations and of the impact of thermal process history. With process optimization, current on/off ratios of 106 and subthreshold swings of 70 mV/dec have been achieved with these simple devices

With technology invading nanometer regime performance of the Metal-Oxide-semiconductor Field Effect Transistor is largely hampered by short channel effects. Most of the simulation tools available do not include short channel effects and quantum effects in the analysis which raises doubt on their authenticity. Although researchers have tried to provide an alternative in the form of tunnel field-effect transistors, junction-less transistors, etc. but they all suffer from their own set of problems. Therefore, Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor remains the backbone of the VLSI industry. This work is dedicated to the design and study of the novel tub-type Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor. For simulation Non-Equilibrium Green’s Function is used as the primary model of simulation. The device is analyzed under different physical variations like work function, permittivity, and interface trap charge. This work uses Silicon-Molybdenum Disulphide heterojunction and Silicon-Tungsten Disulphide heterojunction as channel material. Results for both the heterojunctions are compared. It was analyzed that Silicon-Molybdenum Disulphide heterojunction provides better linearity and Silicon-Tungsten Disulphide heterojunction provides better switching speed than conventional Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor.

The paper introduces an analytical model for gate all around (GAA) or Surrounding Gate Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (SG-MOSFET) inclusive of quantum mechanical effects. The classical oxide capacitance is replaced by the capacitance incorporating quantum effects by including the centroid parameter. The quantum variant of inversion charge distribution function, inversion layer capacitance, drain current, and transconductance expressions are modeled by employing this model. The established analytical model results agree with the simulated results, verifying these models' validity and providing theoretical supports for designing and applying these novel devices.

An organic ferroelectric capacitor, using polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) as the dielectric, was fabricated. By connecting the PVDF capacitor in series to the gate of a commercially purchased metal-oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), drain current (ID)–drain voltage (VD) characteristics and drain current (ID)–gate voltage (VG) characteristics were measured. In addition, the subthreshold slopes of the MOSFET were determined from the ID–VG curves. It was found that the subthreshold slope could be effectively reduced by 23% of its original value when the PVDF capacitor was added to the gate of the MOSFET.
