scholarly journals Performance Analysis Of Double-Gate Carbon-Nanotube FET And MOSFET For High Speed Integrated Circuits Design

This paper explains the detailed structure as well as performance of DG-CNTFET (Double Gate Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistor) and its performance is compared with the DG-MOSFET (Double Gate Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor). Various parameters like I-V characteristics, ON current, OFF current and ON to OFF current ratio have been evaluated using nano-TCAD ViDES. Also, the transport description of DG-MOSFET and DG-CNTFET has been described in detail. It has been observed that DG-CNTFET has lower OFF current and higher ON current in comparison to the DG-MOSFET. The higher ON current of DG-CNTFET depicts that it requires less time to turn on the device in comparison with DG-MOSFET. Also, OFF current of the DG-CNTFET is lesser as compared to MOSFET. The DG-CNTFET’s higher ON to OFF current ratio outperforms the DG-MOSFET in term of switching speed of the device. It is proposed that CNTFET can be used as an alternative of MOSFETs for high speed Integrated Circuit (IC) design.

In this paper, a novel 4H-SiC split heterojunction gate double trench metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (SHG-DTMOS) is proposed to improve switching speed and loss. The device modifies the split gate double trench MOSFET (SG-DTMOS) by changing the N+ polysilicon split gate to the P+ polysilicon split gate. It has two separate P+ shielding regions under the gate to use the P+ split polysilicon gate as a heterojunction body diode and prevent reverse leakage `current. The static and most dynamic characteristics of the SHG-DTMOS are almost like those of the SG-DTMOS. However, the reverse recovery charge is improved by 65.83% and 73.45%, and the switching loss is improved by 54.84% and 44.98%, respectively, compared with the conventional double trench MOSFET (Con-DTMOS) and SG-DTMOS owing to the heterojunction.
