Recent Upgrades and Applications of UFDG

Fossum J.G., Trivedi V.P., Chowdhury M.M., Kim S-H, Zhang W., University of Florida, US

Recent upgrades of UFDG, a process/physics-based compact model for nonclassical MOSFETs having ultra-thin Si bodies (UTB), are overviewed, and several recent applications of the model are presented, exemplifying the potential benefits of FinFETs in nanoscale [...]

Unified Approach to Bulk/SOI/UTB/s-DG MOSFET Compact Modeling

Zhou X., Chandrasekaran K., Chiah S.B., Shangguan W., Zhu Z., See G.H., Mani Pandey S., Lim G.H., Rustagi S., Cheng M., Chu S., Hsia L.-C., Nanyang Technological University, SG

In this paper, we extend our unified regional approach to bulk-MOS charge modeling with non-pinned surface potential for various device structures such as PD/FD/UTB SOI and s-DG MOSFETs, including strained-Si channel. The regional solutions make [...]

Gate Length Scaling Effects in ESD Protection Ultra-thin Body SOI Devices

Lee J.W., Li Y., Sze S.M., Natl Nano Device Labs & Natl Chiao Tung Univ, TW

In this paper we experimentaly explore the gate length scaling effects which related to the abrupt degation of electrostatic discharge (ESD) robustness for ultra-thin body silicon on insulator (SOI) devices and integrated circuits (ICs). It [...]
