  • Power MOSFETs (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor) operate as energy control semiconductor switches. In order to reduce energy loss of the device, it is essential to increase its conductance. However, a trade-off relationship between the breakdown voltage and conductance of the device have been the critical difficulty to improve. In this paper, theoretical analysis of electrical benefits on single floating island power MOSFET is proposed. By the method, the optimization point has set defining the doping limit under single floating island structure. The numerical multiple 2.22 was obtained which indicates the doping limit of the original device, improving its ON state voltage drop by 45%.

  • Power MOSFETs (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor) operate as energy control semiconductor switches. In order to reduce energy loss of the device during switch-on state, it is essential to increase its conductance. In this study we have investigated a structure to reduce the on-resistance characteristics of the MOSFET. We have a proposed MOSFET structure of active cells region buried under the gate pad. The measurement are carried out with a EDS to analyze electrical characteristics, and the proposed MOSFET are compared with the conventional MOSFET. The result of proposed MOSFET was 1.68[${\Omega}$], showing 10% improvement compared to the conventional MOSFET at 700[V].

  • In future wearable electronic systems, 3-dimensional (3D) devices have attracted much attention due to their high density integration and low-power functionality. Among 3D devices, gate-all-around (GAA) nanowire transistor provides superior gate controllability, resulting in suppressing short channel effect and other drawbacks in 2D metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET). Silicon nanowires (SiNWs) are the most promising building block for GAA structure device due to their compatibility with the current Si-based ultra large scale integration (ULSI) technology. Moreover, the theoretical limit for subthreshold swing (SS) of MOSFET is 60 mV/dec at room temperature, which causes the increase in Ioff current. To overcome theoretical limit for the SS, it is crucial that research into new types of device concepts should be performed. In our present studies, we have experimentally demonstrated feedback FET (FBFET) and tunnel FET (TFET) with sub-60 mV/dec based on SiNWs. Also, we fabricated SiNW based complementary TFET (c-TFET) and SiNW complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) inverter. Our research demonstrates the promising potential of SiNW electronic devices for future wearable electronic systems.

  • The electrical characteristics of the monolithic 3-dimensional static random access memory consisting of a feedback field-effect transistor (M3D-SRAM-FBFET) was investigated using technology computer-aided design (TCAD). The N-type FBFET and N-type MOSFET are designed with fully depleted silicon on insulator (FDSOI), and those are located at bottom and top tiers, respectively. For the M3D-SRAM-FBFET, as the supply voltage decreased from 1.9 V to 1.6 V, the reading on-current decreased approximately 10 times.

  • Recently, the junctionless (JL) transistors realized by a single-type doping process have attracted attention instead of the conventional metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFET). The JL transistor can overcome MOSFET's problems such as the thermal budget and short-channel effect. Thus, the JL transistor is considered as great alternative device for a next generation low standby power silicon system. In this paper, the JL FinFET was simulated with a three dimensional (3D) technology computer-aided design (TCAD) simulator and optimized for DC characteristics according to device dimension and doping concentration. The design variables were the fin width ($W_{fin}$), fin height ($H_{fin}$), and doping concentration ($D_{ch}$). After the optimization of DC characteristics, RF characteristics of JL FinFET were also extracted.

  • Power metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) devices are widely used in power electronics applications, such as brushless direct current motors and power modules. For a conventional power MOSFET device such as trench double-diffused MOSFET (TDMOS), there is a tradeoff relationship between specific on-state resistance and breakdown voltage. To overcome the tradeoff relationship, a super-junction (SJ) trench MOSFET (TMOSFET) structure is studied and designed in this letter. The processing conditions are proposed, and studies on the unit cell are performed for optimal design. The structure modeling and the characteristic analyses for doping density, potential distribution, electric field, width, and depth of trench in an SJ TMOSFET are performed and simulated by using of the SILVACO TCAD 2D device simulator, Atlas. As a result, the specific on-state resistance of 1.2 $m{\Omega}-cm^2$ at the class of 100 V and 100 A is successfully optimized in the SJ TMOSFET, which has the better performance than TDMOS in design parameters.

  • The electrical characteristics of solid state devices such as the bipolar junction transistor (BJT), metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET), and other active devices are altered by impinging photon radiation and temperature in the space environment. In this paper, the threshold voltage, the breakdown voltage, and the on-resistance for two kinds of MOSFETs (200 V and 100 V of $V_{DSS}$) are tested for ${\gamma}-irradiation$ and compared with the electrical specifications under the pre- and post-irradiation low dose rates of 4.97 and 9.55 rad/s as well as at a maximum total dose of 30 krad. In our experiment, the ${\gamma}-radiation$ facility using a low dose, available at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI), has been applied on two commercially available International Rectifier (IR) products, IRFP250 and IRF540.

  • This paper reports the optimized mixed-signal performance of a high-voltage (HV) laterally double-diffused metaloxide-semiconductor (LDMOS) field-effect transistor (FET) with a dual gate oxide (DGOX). The fabricated device is based on the split-gate FET concept. In addition, the gate oxide on the source-side channel is thicker than that on the drain-side channel. The experiment results showed that the electrical characteristics are strongly dependent on the source-side channel length with a thick gate oxide. The digital and analog performances according to the source-side channel length of the DGOX LDMOS device were examined for circuit applications. The HV DGOX device with various source-side channel lengths showed reduced by maximum 37% on-resistance (RON) and 50% drain conductance (gds). Therefore, the optimized mixed-signal performance of the HV DGOX device can be obtained when the source-side channel length with a thick gate oxide is shorter than half of the channel length.
