The drain current expression is then obtained from Pao-Sah's double integral. The model consists of one set of surface potential equations,and the analytic drain current can be evaluated from the surface potential at the source and drain ends. It is demonstrated that the model is valid for all operation regions of the double-gate MOSFETs and without any need for simplification (e. g., by using the charge sheet assumption) or auxiliary fitting functions. The model has been verified by extensive comparisons with 2D numerical simulation under different operation conditions with different geometries. The consistency between the model calculation and numerical simulation demonstrates the accuracy of the model.展开更多
