Abstract

We investigated the characteristics of UTB-SOI pMOSFETs with SOI thickness ($T_{SOI}$) ranging from 10 nm to 1 nm and evaluated the dependence of electrical characteristics on the silicon surface orientation. As a result, it is found that the subthreshold characteristics of (100)-surface UTB-SOI pMOSFETs were superior to (110)-surface. However, the hole mobility of (110)-surface were larger than that of (100)-surface. The enhancement of effective hole mobility at the effective field of 0.1 MV/ccm was observed from 3-nm to 5-nm SOI thickness range.
