This short note presents the simulation result on the effect of channel engineering i.e., non-uniform channel doping on short channel effects (SCE) in nano Fin-FET devices using Silvaco TCAD tool. The nano Fin-FET structures were generated using DEVEDIT and the effect of channel doping concentration has been studied. The optimum doping concentration profile has been observed to considerably improve the SCE in general and drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) in particular.

In this paper, first, the impact of different gate arrangements on the short-channel effects of carbon nanotube field-effect transistors with doped source and drain with the self-consistent solution of the three-dimensional Poisson equation and the Schr¨odinger equation with open boundary conditions, within the non-equilibrium Green function, is investigated. The results indicate that the double-gate structure possesses a quasi-ideal subthreshold oscillation and an acceptable decrease in the drain induced barrier even for a relatively thick gate oxide (5 nm). Afterward, the electrical characteristics of the double-gate carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (DG-CNTFET) are investigated. The results demonstrate that an increase in diameter and density of the nanotubes in the DG-CNTFET increases the on-state current. Also, as the drain voltage increases, the off-state current of the DG-CNTFET decreases. In addition, regarding the negative gate voltages, for a high drain voltage, increasing in the drain current due to band-to-band tunnelling requires a larger negative gate voltage, and for a low drain voltage, resonant states appear

<p>Square gate all around MOSFETs are a very promising device structures allowing to continue scaling due to their superior control over the short channel effects. In this work a numerical study of a square structure with single channel is compared to a structure with 4 channels in order to highlight the impact of channels number<em> </em>on the device’s DC parameters (drain current and threshold voltage). Our single channel rectangular GAA MOSFET showed reasonable ratio Ion/Ioff of 10<sup>4</sup>, while our four channels GAA MOSFET showed a value of 10<sup>3</sup>. In addition, a low value of drain induced barrier lowering<em> (DIBL) of </em>60mV/V was obtained for our single channel GAA and a lower value of with 40mv/v has been obtained for our four channel one. Also, an extrinsic transconductance of 88ms/µm have been obtained for our four channels GAA compared to the single channel that is equal to 7ms/µm.</p>

A quantum-mechanical model, by combining the quantum mechanical carrier distribution and short channel effects (SCEs) with the classical carrier transport is used to predict the I–V characteristics at sub-90 nm technology nodes. I–V characteristics of 90, 65, and 45 nm for developed model are benchmarked. The analysis of SCEs, namely, velocity saturation, mobility degradation, and threshold voltage shift, has been carried out in this paper for these technology nodes. The detailed physical view of the variation of these effects with channel length (L) and drain voltage (Vds) has been presented. Also, the impact of including these effects in I–V equations of nanoscale MOSFETs is included in the paper. The observations presented in this paper will help in developing a clear understanding of physical behavior of nanoscale MOSFETs.

AbstractAs extensions have been up till now always used in N-MOS transistors with an activation anneal. Here, we show that also alternative doping by P can result in junction extensions that are extremely abrupt and shallow thus suitable for upcoming transistor technologies. P extensions are manufactured by amorphization, carbon co-implantation and conventional rapid thermal annealing (RTA). The impact of Si interstitials (Sii) flux suppression on the formation of P junction extensions during RTA is demonstrated. We have concluded that optimization of implants followed by RTA spike offers excellent extensions with depth Xj = 20 nm (taken at 5 × 1018 at./cm3), abruptness 3 nm/dec. and Rs = 326 Ω. Successful implementation of these junctions is straightforward for N-MOS devices with 30 nm gate length and results in an improved short channel effects with respect to the As reference.
