This paper analyzes the influence of tunneling current on threshold voltage shift by channel length of short channel asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. Tunneling current significantly increases by decrease of channel length in the region of 10 nm below, and the secondary effects such as threshold voltage shift occurs. Threshold voltage shift due to tunneling current is not negligible even in case of asymmetric DGMOSFET to develop for reduction of short channel effects. Off current consists of thermionic and tunneling current, and the ratio of tunneling current is increasing with reduction of channel length. The WKB(Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin) approximation is used to obtain tunneling current, and potential distribution in channel is hermeneutically derived. As a result, threshold voltage shift due to tunneling current is greatly occurred for decreasing of channel length in short channel asymmetric DGMOSFET. Threshold voltage is changing according to bottom gate voltages, but threshold voltage shifts is nearly constant.

Reduction of breakdown voltage is serious short channel effect (SCE) by shrink of channel length. The deviation of breakdown voltage for doping concentration is investigated with structural parameters of sub-10 nm double gate (DG) MOSFET in this paper. To analyze this, thermionic and tunneling current are derived from analytical potential distribution, and breakdown voltage is defined as drain voltage when the sum of two currents is $10{\mu}A$. As a result, breakdown voltage increases with increase of doping concentration. Breakdown voltage decreases by reduction of channel length. In order to solve this problem, it is found that silicon and oxide thicknesses should be kept very small. In particular, as contributions of tunneling current increases, breakdown voltage increases.

In this paper, we study STBC(Space Time Block Code) detection scheme in time varying Rayleigh fading channel. When the channel is varying during the time duration of STBC, the channel matrix of orthogonal STBC is not orthogonal. To get the optimum reception performance in this channel, joint ML detection scheme may be used, however this scheme requires high computation complexity. Decision feedback scheme is proposed to reduce the computation complexity with less reception performance. In this paper, we propose a novel STBC detection algorithm using double decision feedback which is less complex than the joint ML scheme and outperforms the conventional decision feedback scheme.

This paper have presented the breakdown voltage for double gate(DG) MOSFET. The analytical solution of Poisson's equation and Fulop's breakdown condition have been used to analyze for breakdown voltage. The double gate(DG) MOSFET has the advantage to reduce the short channel effects as improving the current controllability of gate. But we need the study for the breakdown voltage of DGMOSFET since the decrease of the breakdown voltage is unavoidable. To approximate with experimental values, we have used the Gaussian function as charge distribution for Poisson's equation, and the change of breakdown voltage has been observed for device geometry. Since this potential model has been verified in the previous papers, we have used this model to analyze the breakdown voltage. As a result to observe the breakdown voltage, the smaller channel length and the higher doping concentration become, the smaller the breakdown voltage becomes. Also we have observed the change of the breakdown voltage for gate oxide thickness and channel thickness.

In this paper, drain induced barrier lowering(DIBL) has been analyzed as one of short channel effects occurred in double gate(DG) MOSFET to be next-generation devices. Since Gaussian function been used as carrier distribution for solving Poisson's equation to obtain analytical solution of potential distribution, we expect our results using this model agree with experimental results. DIBL has been investigated according to projected range and standard projected deviation as variables of Gaussian function, and channel structure and channel doping intensity as device parameter. Since the validity of this analytical potential distribution model derived from Poisson's equation has already been proved in previous papers, DIBL has been analyzed using this model. Resultly, DIBL has been greatly changed for channel structure and doping concentration.

An analytical subthreshold swing (SS) model has been presented for double gate MOSFET(DGMOSFET) in this study. The results calculated by this model are more precise for about 10nm channel length and thickness than those derived from the previous models. The results of this model are compared with Medici simulation to varify the validity of this model, and good agreementes have been obtained. The changes of SS have been investigated for various channel lengths, channel thicknesses and gate oxide thicknesses using this model, given that these parameters are very important in design of DGMOSFET. This demonstrates that the proposed model provides useful data for design of nano-scale DGMOSFET. It is Known that the SS is improved to smaller ratios of channel thickness vs channel length and is smaller in very thin oxides. New gate dielectric materials with high permittivity have to be developed to enable design of nano-scale DGMOSFET.

This paper has analyzed threshold voltage roll-off for bottom gate voltages of asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET. Since the asymmetric DGMOSFET is four terminal device to be able to separately bias for top and bottom gates, the bottom gate voltage influences on threshold voltage. It is, therefore, investigated how the threshold voltage roll-off known as short channel effects is reduced with bottom gate voltage. In the pursuit of this purpose, off-current model is presented in the subthreshold region, and the threshold voltage roll-off is observed for channel length and thickness with a parameter of bottom gate voltage as threshold voltage is defined by top gate voltage that off-currnt is $10^{-7}A/{\mu}m$ per channel width. As a result to observe the threshold voltage roll-off for bottom gate voltage using this model, we know the bottom gate voltage greatly influences on threshold voltage roll-off voltages, especially in the region of short channel length and thickness.

This paper has presented the relation of scaling theory and threshold voltage of double gate(DG) MOSFET. In the case of conventional MOSFET, current and switching frequency have been analyzed based on scaling theory. To observe the possibility of application of scaling theory for threshold voltage of DGMOSFET, the change of threshold voltage has been observed and analyzed according to scaling theory. The analytical potential distribution of Poisson equation has been used, and this model has been already verified. To solve Poisson equation, charge distribution such as Gaussian function has been used. As a result, it has been observed that threshold voltage is grealty changed according to scaling factor and change rate of threshold voltages is traced for scaling of doping concentration in channel. This paper has explained for the best modified scaling theory reflected the influence of two gates as using weighting factor when scaling theory has been applied for channel length and channel thickness.

In this paper, the subthreshold swing has been analyzed for double gate FinFET under channel length of 20nm. The analytical current model has been developed, including thermionic current and tunneling current models. The potential distribution by Poisson equation and carrier distribution by Maxwell-Boltzman statistics are used to calculate thermionic emission current, and WKB(Wentzel-Framers-Brillouin) approximation to tunneling current. The cutoff current is obtained by simple adding two currents since two current is independent. The subthreshold swings by this model are compared with those by two dimensional simulation and two values are good agreement. Since the tunneling current increases especially under channel length of 10nm, the characteristics of subthreshold swing is degraded. The channel and gate oxide thickness have to be fabricated as thin as possible to decrease this short channel effects and this process has to be developed. The subthreshold swings as a function of channel doping concentrations are obtained.

A method on the hardware implementation of the Multi-channel FIR digital filter using Digital Quarter Square Multiplication(DQSM) algorithm is proposed. This paper describes that ROM requirement can be reduced by using the double precision algorithm and the absolute value circuit, and also execution speed can be improved by reducing logic level steps of absolute value circuit. The frequency response of the four channel FIR digital filter implemented by the above method is quite agreeable with the frequency response simulated by Remez excahange algorithm.
