Model verification is carried out using the 2D device simulator ISE. Good agreement is obtained between the model's calculations and the simulated results. By analyzing the model, the dependence of current on the strained-Si layer strain, doping concentration, source/drain junction depths and substrate voltage is studied. This subthreshold current model provides valuable information for strained-Si MOSFET design.展开更多
