Design Guidelines For Sub-12 Nm Nanowire Mosfets
IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON NANOTECHNOLOGY(2015)
摘要
Traditional thinking assumes that a light effective mass (m*), high mobility material will result in better transistor characteristics. However, sub-12-nm metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) with light m* may under-perform compared to standard Si, as a result of source to drain (S/D) tunneling. An optimum heavier mass can decrease tunneling leakage current, and at the same time, improve gate to channel capacitance because of an increased quantum capacitance (C-q). A single band effective mass model has been used to provide the performance trends independent of material, orientation and strain. This paper provides guidelines for achieving optimum m* for sub-12-nm nanowire down to channel length of 3 nm. Optimum m* are found to range between 0.2-1.0 m(0) and more interestingly, these masses can be engineered within Si for both p-type and n-type MOSFETs. m* is no longer a material constant, but a geometry and strain dependent property of the channel material.
