Abstract Nanosheet Field Effect Transistor (NSFET) is a viable contender for future scaling in sub-7-nm technology. This paper provides insights into the variations of DC FOMs for different geometrical configurations of the NSFET. In this script, DC performance of 3D GAA NSFET is analyzed by varying the width, thickness of the device. Moreover, the gate length is scaled from 20 nm to 5 nm to check for the device suitability in logic applications. The thickness and width of each nanosheet are varied in the range of 5 to 9 nm, and 10 to 50 nm respectively to analyse the performance dependency on the geometry of the device. The impact of geometry of NSFET on various DC performance metrics like transfer characteristics, sub-threshold swing (SS), on current (ION), off current (IOFF), switching ratio (ION/IOFF), threshold voltage (Vth) and drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) are studied. On top of that, the device’s electrical characteristics are analyzed for a wide range of temperatures from -43oC to 127oC to identify the temperature compensation point and is observed at VGS = 0.55 V and ID = 3.86 × 10−6 A. Furthermore, the important process parameter, work function variations on transfer characteristics of the device is analyzed. Moreover, the analyses tell that, for sub -7 nm, the NSFET is a potential device for high performance and good logic applications.

Present Understanding

The present understanding of this work is about to evaluate and resolve the temperature compensation point (TCP) or zero temperature coefficient (ZTC) point for a sub-20 nm FinFET. The sensitivity of geometry parameters on assorted performances of Fin based device and its reliability over ample range of temperatures i.e. 25?C to 225?C is reviewed to extend the benchmark of device scalability. The impact of fin height (HFin), fin width (WFin), and temperature (T) on immense performance metrics including on-off ratio (Ion/Ioff), transconductance (gm), gain (AV), cut-off frequency (fT), static power dissipation (PD), energy (E), energy delay product (EDP), and sweet spot (gmfT/ID) of the FinFET is successfully carried out by commercially available TCAD simulator SentaurusTM from Synopsis Inc.

<span>This paper studies the impact of fin width of channel on temperature and electrical characteristics of fin field-effect transistor (FinFET). The simulation tool multi-gate field effect transistor (MuGFET) has been used to examine the FinFET characteristics. Transfer characteristics with various temperatures and channel fin width (W<sub>F</sub>=5, 10, 20, 40, and 80 nm) are at first simulated in this study. The results show that the increasing of environmental temperature tends to increase threshold voltage, while the subthreshold swing (SS) and drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL) rise with rising working temperature. Also, the threshold voltage decreases with increasing channel fin width of transistor, while the SS and DIBL increase with increasing channel fin width of transistor, at minimum channel fin width, the SS is very near to the best and ideal then its value grows and going far from the ideal value with increasing channel fin width. So, according to these conditions, the minimum value as possible of fin width is the preferable one for FinFET with better electrical characteristics.</span>

Abstract Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) specimens are typically prepared using the focused ion beam (FIB) due to its site specificity, and fast and accurate thinning capabilities. However, TEM and high-resolution TEM (HRTEM) analysis may be limited due to the resulting FIB-induced artifacts. This work identifies FIB artifacts and presents the use of argon ion milling for the removal of FIB-induced damage for reproducible TEM specimen preparation of current and future fin field effect transistor (FinFET) technologies. Subsequently, high-quality and electron-transparent TEM specimens of less than 20 nm are obtained.

AbstractUsing accurate dissipative DFT-NEGF atomistic-simulation techniques within the Wannier-Function formalism, we give a fresh look at the possibility of sub-10-nm scaling for high-performance complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) applications. We show that a combination of good electrostatic control together with high mobility is paramount to meet the stringent roadmap targets. Such requirements typically play against each other at sub-10-nm gate length for MOS transistors made of conventional semiconductor materials like Si, Ge, or III–V and dimensional scaling is expected to end ~12 nm gate-length (pitch of 40 nm). We demonstrate that using alternative 2D channel materials, such as the less-explored HfS2 or ZrS2, high-drive current down to ~6 nm is, however, achievable. We also propose a dynamically doped field-effect transistor concept, that scales better than its MOSFET counterpart. Used in combination with a high-mobility material such as HfS2, it allows for keeping the stringent high-performance CMOS on current and competitive energy-delay performance, when scaling down to virtually 0 nm gate length using a single-gate architecture and an ultra-compact design (pitch of 22 nm). The dynamically doped field-effect transistor further addresses the grand-challenge of doping in ultra-scaled devices and 2D materials in particular.

The Impact

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
