Effects of Neglecting Carrier Tunneling on Electrostatic Potential in Calculating Direct Tunneling Gate Current in Deep Submicron MOSFETs
نویسنده
چکیده
We investigate the validity of the assumption of neglecting carrier tunneling effects on self-consistent electrostatic potential in calculating direct tunneling gate current in deep submicron MOSFETs. Comparison between simulated and experimental results shows that for accurate modeling of direct tunneling current, tunneling effects on potential profile need to be considered. The relative error in gate current due to neglecting carrier tunneling is higher at higher gate voltages and increases with decreasing oxide thickness. We also study the direct tunneling gate current in MOSFETs with highgate dielectrics.

Issues in High Frequency Noise Simulation for Deep Submicron MOSFETs
This paper proposes issues in highly accurate high frequency noise simulation for deep submicron MOSFETs. Unlike classical RF design, in which a given device with fixed characteristics is used, CMOS RF design permits selection of user specified device geometries as well as matching elements and bias conditions. Therefore, an exhaustive intrinsic noise modeling of MOSFETs across the entire opera...
