These devices with 1.2μm gate-length,4mm space between source and drain,and 15nm recessed-gate depth exhibit a maximum drain current of 332mA/mm at 3V, a maximum transconductance of 221mS/mm, a threshold voltage of 0.57V, ft of 5.2GHz, and fmax of 9.3GHz. A dielectric layer formed unintentionally during recessedgate etching is confirmed by contrasting the Schottky I-V characteristics of pre-etching and post-etching. The frequency characteristics and subthreshold characteristics of the devices are studied in detail.展开更多

Two-dimensional analytical models of surface potential and threshold voltage for the novel SOI MOSFET are developed based on the explicit solution of the two-dimensional Poisson's equation. Its characteristic improvement is investigated. It is concluded that the novel structure exhibits better suppression of drain-induced barrier lowering and higher carrier transport efficiency than conventional dual material gate SOI MOSFETs. Its drain-induced barrier lowering decreases with increasing halo doping concentration but does not change monotonically with halo length. The analytical models agree well with the two-dimensional device simulator MEDICI.展开更多

ITO film was adopted in the device as gate electrode to reduce the light absorption. Thin Si film was fully depleted under gate voltage to achieve low dark current and high photo4o-dark current ratio. The model of gate voltage was obtained and the numerical simulations were presented by ATLAS. Current-voltage characteristics of LPIN PD-GTE obtained in dark (dark current) and under 570 nm illumination (photo current) were studied to achieve the greatest photo-to-dark current ratio for active channel length from 2 to 12 /am. The results show that the photo-to-dark current ratio is 2.0×10^7, with dark current of around 5×10^-4 pA under VGK=0.6 V, PrN=5 mW/cm2, for a total area of 10μm×10μm in fully depleted SOI technology. Thus, the LPIN PD-GTE can be suitable for high-grade photoelectric systems such as blue DVD.展开更多
