The saturation regime of two types of fully depleted (FD) SOI MOSFET devices was studied. Ultrathin body (UTB) and gate recessed channel (GRC) devices were fabricated simultaneously on the same silicon wafer through a selective “gate recessed” process. They share the sameW/Lratio but have a channel film thickness of 46 nm and 2.2 nm, respectively. Their standard characteristics (IDS-VDSandIDS-VGS) of the devices were measured at room temperature before cooling down to 77 K. Surprisingly, their respective temperature dependence is found to be opposite. In this paper, we focus our comparative analysis on the devices' conduction using aY-function applied to the saturation domain. The influence of the temperature in this domain is presented for the first time. We point out the limits of theY-function analysis and show that a new function calledZcan be used to extract the series resistance in the saturation regime.

Introduction: A new analytical model is designed for Workfunction Modulated Rectangular Recessed Channel-Silicon On Insulator (WMRRC-SOI) MOSFET that considers the concept of groove gate and implements an idea of workfunction engineering. Methods: The impact of Negative Junction Depth (NJD) and oxide thickness (tox) are analyzed on device performances such as Sub-threshold Slope (SS), Drain Induced Barrier Lowering (DIBL) and threshold voltage. Results: The results of the proposed work are evaluated with the Rectangular Recessed Channel-Silicon On Insulator (RRC-SOI) MOSFET keeping the metal workfunction constant throughout the gate region. Furthermore, an analytical model is developed using 2D Poisson’s equation and threshold voltage is estimated in terms of minimum surface potential. Conclusion: In this work, the impact of Negative Junction Depth (NJD) on minimum surface potential and the drain current are also evaluated. It is observed from the analysis that the analog switching performance of WMRRC-SOI MOSFET surpasses RRC-SOI MOSFET in terms of better driving capability, high Ion/Ioff ratio, minimized Short Channel Effects (SCEs) and hot carrier immunity. Results are simulated using 2D Sentaurus TCAD simulator for validation of the proposed structure.

TCAD tools have been largely improved in the last decades in order to support both process and device complementary simulations which are usually based on continuously developed models following the technology progress. In this paper, we compare between experimental and TCAD simulated results of two kinds of nanoscale devices: ultrathin body (UTB) and nanoscale Body (NSB) SOI-MOSFET devices, sharing the sameW/Lratio but having a channel thickness ratio of 10 : 1 (46 nm and 4.6 nm, resp.). The experimental transferI-Vcharacteristics were found to be surprisingly different by several orders of magnitude. We analyzed this result by considering the severe mobility degradation and the influence of a large gate voltage dependent series resistance (RSD). TCAD tools do not usually considerRSDto be either channel thickness or gate voltage dependent. After observing a clear discrepancy between the mobility values extracted from our measurements and those modeled by the available TCAD models, we propose a new semiempirical approach to model the transfer characteristics.
