- Influence of the N-type FinFET width on the zero temperature coefficient(2007-09-07) BELLODI, M.; MARTINO, J. A.; CAMILO, L. M.; SIMOEN, E.; CLAEYS, C.This paper presents the influence of the Fin width dimension on the Zero Temperature Coefficient (ZTC) behavior for devices operating at high temperatures (from room temperature up to 573K). Besides this, a simple analytical model is presented in order to describe the ZTC behavior as the temperature increases. Three-dimensional simulations are carried out and compared with experimental results to support the interpretation presented along this work. © The Electrochemical Society.
- Influence of fin width on the intrinsic voltage gain of standard and strained triple-gate nFinFETs(2008-09-04) Marcelo Antonio Pavanello; MARTINO, J. A.; SIMOEN, E.; ROOYACKERS, R.; COLLAERT, N.; CLAEYS, C.This work studies the influence of the fin width on the intrinsic voltage gain of standard and strained Si (sSOI) n-type triple-gate FinFETs with high-k dielectrics and metal gate. It is demonstrated that independent of the fin width the application of strain improves the device transconductance. On the other hand, the device output conductance shows a high dependence on the fin width in strained FinFETs with respect to standard ones. The output conductance degrades if narrow fins are used and improves for wide fins. Narrow strained FinFETs show a degradation of the Early voltage compared to standard ones suggesting that strained devices are more subjected to the channel length modulation effect. © The Electrochemical Society.
- Fin width influence on the harmonic distortion of standard and strained FinFETs operating in saturation(2009-09-03) Rodrigo Doria; CERDEIRA. A.; MARTINO J. A; SIMOEN, E.; CLAEYS, C.; Marcelo Antonio PavanelloThis work compares the harmonic distortion of standard and biaxially strained FinFETs aiming at analog applications such as amplifiers. The harmonic distortion has been extracted for devices operating as single transistor amplifiers. Total harmonic distortion (THD) and third order harmonic distortion (HD3) have been evaluated for devices with several fin widths. For a fairer analysis, the influence of the open-loop voltage gain (Av) in devices with different dimensions has also been considered generating the figures of merit THD/Av and HD3/Av. According to the analysis, narrower devices have overcome the wider ones and conventional FinFETs have shown to be more attractive than the strained ones for analog purposes. Narrower standard FinFETs exhibited up to 20 dB THD/Av better in relation to the strained ones. © The Electrochemical Society.
- Influence of fin width and channel length on the performance of buffers implemented with standard and strained triple-gate nFinFETs(2009-09-03) Marcelo Antonio Pavanello; MARTINO, J. A.; SIMOEN, E.; ROOYACKERS, R.; COLLAERT, N.; CLAEYS, C.In this work the application of standard and strained triple-gate FinFETs in unity-gain source-follower configuration is compared. The analysis is performed by evaluating the buffer voltage gain with respect to the fin width and channel length as well as the total harmonic distortion. It is demonstrated that the application of strained material in narrow FinFETs, when the devices are operating in double-gate mode, can be beneficial for the performance of buffers in any channel length. On the other hand, for triple-gate FinFETs or quasi-planar ones the degradation of the output conductance overcomes the transconductance improvements from strained material and the performance of standard buffers is better than of strained ones. Narrow strained buffers also offer better harmonic distortion. © The Electrochemical Society.
- An analytical model for the non-linearity of triple gate SOI MOSFETs(2011-01-05) Rodrigo Doria; MARTINO, J. A.; SIMOEN, E.; CLAEYS, C.; Marcelo Antonio PavanelloThis work proposes a physically-based analytical model for the non-linearity of Triple-Gate MOSFETs. The model describes the second order harmonic distortion (HD2), usually the major non-linearity source, as a function of the device dimensions, the series resistance, the low field mobility and the mobility degradation factor (θ). The model was applied to transistors of different channel lengths and fin widths and allowed to conclude that θ is the parameter which most contributes for the increase of HD2. The model was validated for both unstrained and strained FinFETs. ©The Electrochemical Society.
- Impact of substrate rotation and temperature on the mobility and series resistance of triple-gate SOI nMOSFETs(2011-09-02) Michely De Souza; MARTINO, J. A.; SIMOEN, E.; CLAEYS, C.; Marcelo Antonio PavanelloIn this work a comparative experimental analysis of the electron mobility and parasitic source-drain series resistance of triple-gate n-channel MOSFETs as a function of the temperature is carried out. Devices with different fin widths fabricated on standard non-rotated and 45° rotated SOI substrates were analyzed for temperatures ranging from 250 K to 400 K. It is shown that the use of rotated substrate does not affect the subthreshold slope or the threshold voltage variation with temperature of these devices. On the other hand, the change in the conduction plane not only improves the mobility, but also promotes a rise of its variation with temperature. Although the fin width reduction may cause an increase of the series resistance, the increased mobility of rotated devices is responsible for the series resistance roll-off and this reduction becomes larger as the fin is narrowed. © The Electrochemical Society.
