The bulk-planer MOSFET has a scaling limitation due to the short channel effect (SCE). The Double-Gate MOSFET (DG-MOSFET) is a next generation device for nanoscale with excellent control of SCE. The quantum effect in lateral direction is important for subthreshold characteristics when the effective channel length of DG-MOSFET is less than 10nm, Also, ballistic transport is setting important. This study shows modeling and design issues of nanoscale DG-MOSFET considering the 2D quantum effect and ballistic transport. We have optimized device characteristics of DG-MOSFET using a proper value of $t_{si}$ underlap and lateral doping gradient.

In this paper, we designed double gate(DG) MOSFET structure which has main gate(MG) and two side gates(SG). We have simulated using TCAD simulator. DG MOSFET have the main gate length of nm and the side gate length of 70nm. Then, we have investigated the pinch-off characteristics, drain voltage is changed from 0V to 1.5V at VMG=1.5V and VSG=3.0V. In spite of the LMG is very small, we have obtained a very good pinch-off characteristics. Therefore, we know that the DG structure is very useful at nino scale.

CMOS devices have scaled down to sub-50nm gate to achieve high performance and high integration density. Key challenges with the device scaling are non-scalable threshold voltage( $V^{th}$ ), high electric field, parasitic source/drain resistance, and $V^{th}$ variation by random dopant distribution. To solve scale-down problem of conventional structure, a new structure was proposed. In this paper, we have investigated double-gate MOSFET structure, which has the main-gate and the side-gates, to solve these problem.

In this paper, we have investigated characteristics of sub-50nm double gate MOSFET. From I-V characteristics, we obtained =510$\mu$A/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ at VMG=VDS=1.5V and VSG=3.0V. Then, the transconductance is 111$\mu$A/V, subthreshold slope is 86mV/dec and DIBL (Drain Induced Barrier Lowering) is 51.3mV. Also, we have presented that TCAD simulator is suitable for device simulation.

In this paper, a high-sensitivity low power photodetector using double gate (DG) MOSFET is proposed for the first time using change in subthreshold current under illumination as the sensitivity parameter. An analytical model for optically controlled double gate (DG) MOSFET under illumination is developed to demonstrate that it can be used as high sensitivity photodetector and simulation results are used to validate the analytical results. Sensitivity of the device is compared with conventional bulk MOSFET and results show that DG MOSFET has higher sensitivity over bulk MOSFET due to much lower dark current obtained in DG MOSFET because of its effective gate control. Impact of the silicon film thickness and gate stack engineering is also studied on sensitivity.

In this paper, we have investigated double gate (DG) MOSFET structure, which has main gate (NG) and two side gates (SG). We know that optimum side gate voltage for each side gate length is about 3V in the main gate 50nm. Also, we know that optimum side gate length for each for main gate length is about 70nm. DG MOSFET shows a small threshold voltage roll-off. From the I-V characteristics, we obtained IDsat=550$mutextrm{A}$/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ at VMG=VDS=1.5V and VSG=3.0V for DG MOSFET with the main gate length of 50nm and the side gate length of 70nm. The subthreshold slope is 86.2㎷/decade, transconductance is 114$mutextrm{A}$/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and DIBL (Drain Induced Barrier Lowering) is 43.37㎷. Then, we have investigated the advantage of this structure for the application to multi-input NAND gate logic. Then, we have obtained very high cut-off frequency of 41.4GHz in the DG MOSFET.

This study has presented the analysis of breakdown voltage for a double-gate metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) based on the doping distribution of the Gaussian function. The double-gate MOSFET is a next generation transistor that shrinks the short channel effects of the nano-scaled CMOSFET. The degradation of breakdown voltage is a highly important short channel effect with threshold voltage roll-off and an increase in subthreshold swings. The analytical potential distribution derived from Poisson's equation and the Fulop's avalanche breakdown condition have been used to calculate the breakdown voltage of a double-gate MOSFET for the shape of the Gaussian doping distribution. This analytical potential model is in good agreement with the numerical model. Using this model, the breakdown voltage has been analyzed for channel length and doping concentration with parameters such as projected range and standard projected deviation of Gaussian function. As a result, since the breakdown voltage is greatly changed for the shape of the Gaussian function, the channel doping distribution of a double-gate MOSFET has to be carefully designed.

The analytical transport model in subthreshold regime for double gate MOSFET has been presented to analyze the short channel effects such as subthreshold swing, threshold voltage roll-off and drain induced barrier lowering. The present approach includes the quantum tunneling of carriers through the source-drain barrier. Poisson equation is used for modeling thermionic emission current, and Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin approximations are applied for modeling quantum tunneling current. This model has been used to investigate the subthreshold operations of double gate MOSFET having the gate length of the nanometer range with ultra thin gate oxide and channel thickness under sub-20nm. Compared with results of two dimensional numerical simulations, the results in this study show good agreements with those for subthreshold swing and threshold voltage roll-off. Note the short channel effects degrade due to quantum tunneling, especially in the gate length of below 10nm, and DGMOSFETs have to be very strictly designed in the regime of below 10nm gate length since quantum tunneling becomes the main transport mechanism in the subthreshold region.

In this paper, the 1,700 V level SiC-based power MOSFET device widely used in electric vehicles and new energy industries was designed, that is, a single trench gate power MOSFET structure and a double trench gate power MOSFET structure were proposed to analyze electrical characteristics while changing the design and process parameters. As a result of comparing and analyzing the two structures, it can be seen that the double trench gate structure shows quite excellent characteristics according to the concentration of the drift layer, and the breakdown voltage characteristics according to the depth of the drift layer also show excellent characteristics of 200 V or more. Among them, the trench gate power MOSFET device can be applied not only to the 1,700 V class but also to a voltage range above it, and it is believed that it can replace all Si devices currently applied to electric vehicles and new energy industries.
