Abstract
The transconductance of short channel LDD MOSFETs in the saturation region (high Vd)has shown different characteristics from that of conventional device. The transconductance in saturation regime of short channel LDD MOSFETs is reduced from maximum value at higher gate voltage. This decline is analyzed as the velocity saturation effects of carrier at LDD region but accurate analytical expressions for the drain current Idsat and the transconductance Gmsat in the saturation regime are still not in existence. Recently the drain current dependence of parasitic source resistance Rs has been modeled from the velocity saturation of carriers in LDD region. In this study, we approximate that Rmsat that Rs is linearly dependent on the applied gate voltage. Analytical expressions for Idsat and Gmsat obtained from this approximation show the same general behavior as experimental results of short channel LDD NMOSFETs.
