ANALOG AND DIGITAL PERFORMANCE OF THE SCREEN-GRID FIELD EFFECT TRANSISTOR (SGrFET)
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Screen-Grid Field Effect Transistor (SGrFET) is a planar MOSFET-type device with a gating configuration consisting of metal cylindrical fingers inside the channel perpendicular to the current flow. The SGrFET operates in a MESFET mode using oxide insulated gates. The multi-gate configuration offers advantages for both analog and digital applications, whilst the gate cylinder holes can be exploited for bio-applications. In this manuscript TCAD results are presented on the analog and digital performance of the Screen-Grid Field Effect Transistor. The results are compared to the operation of an SOI-MOSFET and a finFET.
