Drain current-gate voltage, I d ( V g ) characteristics and the power spectral density, PSD , of I d fluctuations were obtained on SiGe channel pMOSFETs and on their Si homologues, for I d intensities varied from deep sub-threshold to strong inversion values. Devices with 2.2nm thick SiO 2 gates and channel lengths 50 nm <L<10μm were used. In heterostructures, the SiGe layers were 20nm thick and buried under 2nm of Si . The data were simulated, assuming a parallel current flow in the interface and the SiGe channels, with associated noise sources. The transport parameters, extracted from I d ( V g ) characteristics, served for calculating the PSD ( I d ) functions. The latter required adjusting the interface trap density and a parameter α c , accounting for the effect of the interface charge fluctua-tions on the hole mobility fluctuations, significant at high levels of trap filling i.e. high I d . We found that the PSD in the SiGe devices was up to 10 times lower than in the Si controls at sufficiently high I d . The simulation, accounting for the data, required a significant lowering of α c for the SiGe channel. That implies that the LFN reduction in SiGe MOSFETs results from a weaker interaction of the SiGe holes with the interface charges. The sub-0.1μm channel devices show a similar noise lowering, in spite of the hole mobility degradation.

AbstractWe have investigated the effects of white-light illumination on the electrical performance of organic polymer thin-film transistors (OP-TFTs). The OFF-state drain current is significantly increased, while the drain current in the strong accumulation regime is relatively unaffected. At the same time, the threshold voltage is decreased and the subthreshold slope is increased, while the field-effect mobility of the charge carriers is not affected. The observed effects are explained in terms of the photogeneration of free charge carriers in the channel region due to the absorbed photons.

Background: A novel Dual Material Gate Graded Channel and Dual Oxide Thickness Cylindrical Gate (DMG-GC-DOT) MOSFET is presented in this paper. Methods: Analytical model of drain current is developed using a quasi-two-dimensional cylindrical form of the Poisson equation and is expressed as a function of the surface potential, which is calculated using the expressions of the current density. Results: Comparison of the analytical results with 3D numerical simulations using Silvaco Atlas - TCAD software presents a good agreement from subthreshold to strong inversion regime and for different bias voltages. Conclusion: Two oxide thicknesses with different permittivity can effectively improve the subthreshold current of DMG-GC-DOT MOSFET.

This paper presents a simple and comprehensive model of a dual-gate graphene field effect transistor (FET). The quantum capacitance and surface potential dependence on the top-gate-to-source voltage were studied for monolayer and bilayer graphene channel by using equivalent circuit modeling. Additionally, the closed-form analytical equations for the drain current and drain-to-source voltage dependence on the drain current were investigated. The distribution of drain current with voltages in three regions (triode, unipolar saturation, and ambipolar) was plotted. The modeling results exhibited better output characteristics, transfer function, and transconductance behavior for GFET compared to FETs. The transconductance estimation as a function of gate voltage for different drain-to-source voltages depicted a proportional relationship; however, with the increase of gate voltage this value tended to decline. In the case of transit frequency response, a decrease in channel length resulted in an increase in transit frequency. The threshold voltage dependence on back-gate-source voltage for different dielectrics demonstrated an inverse relationship between the two. The analytical expressions and their implementation through graphical representation for a bilayer graphene channel will be extended to a multilayer channel in the future to improve the device performance.
