Impact of Substrate Resistance on Drain Current Noise in MOSFETs
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper identifies the physical origin and contribution mechanism of substrate induced channel thermal noise in MOSFETs. Resistance of the substrate generates potential fluctuations that in turn produce additive channel noise via the channel depletion capacitor. The additive noise may result in a frequency dependence of the drain current noise due to a pole associated with the Rsub-Cdepl network. Its bias and length dependencies conforms to those of reported excess noise, it thus may exaggerate the amount of the channel thermal noise factor.

متن کاملNoise in nanometric s-Si MOSFET for low- power applications
Abstract. This paper reports on the influence of the gate length reduction on the noise performance of strained-Si surface channel MOSFETs for very low power applications. When the gate length is reduced from 100nm to 20nm an increase of the current gain is achieved that nearly doubles the cut-off frequency of the transistor. This is counterbalanced by a deterioration of the noise figure and th...
