To analyze Nonvolatile SNOSFET(polySilicon-Nitride-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) memory device, two dimensional numerical computer simulation program was developed. The equation discretization was performed by the Finite difference method and the solution was derived by the Iteration method. The doping profile of n-channel device which was fabricated by 1Mbit CMOS process was observed. The electrical potential and the carrier concentration distribution to applied bias condition were observed in the inner of a device. As a result of the write and the erase to memory charge quantity, the threshold voltage shift is expected. Therefore, without device fabrication, the operating characteristics of the device was observed under various the processing and the operating condition.

본 연구에서는 비대칭 이중게이트 MOSFET의 채널 내 도핑농도분포에 대한 드레인유도장벽감소(Drain Induced Barrier Lowering; DIBL)에 대하여 분석하고자한다. DIBL은 드레인 전압에 의하여 소스 측 전위장벽이 낮아지는 효과로서 중요한 단채널 효과이다. 이를 분석하기 위하여 포아송방정식을 이용하여 해석학적 전위분포를 구하였으며 전위분포에 영향을 미치는 채널도핑농도의 분포함수변화에 대하여 DIBL을 관찰하였다. 채널길이, 채널두께, 상하단 게이트 산화막 두께, 하단 게이트 전압 등을 파라미터로 하여 DIBL을 관찰하였다. 결과적으로 DIBL은 채널도핑농도분포함수의 변수인 이온주입범위 및 분포편차에 변화를 나타냈다. 특히 두 변수에 대한 DIBL의 변화는 최대채널도핑농도가 $10^{18}/cm^3$ 정도로 고도핑 되었을 경우 더욱 현저히 나타나고 있었다. 채널길이가 감소할수록 그리고 채널두께가 증가할수록 DIBL은 증가하였으며 하단 게이트 전압과 상하단 게이트 산화막 두께가 증가할수록 DIBL은 증가하였다.

In this paper, threshold voltage characteristics have been analyzed as one of short channel effects occurred in double gate(DG)MOSFET to be next-generation devices. The Gaussian function to be nearly experimental distribution has been used as carrier distribution to solve Poisson's equation, and threshold voltage has been investigated according to projected range and standard projected deviation, variables of Gaussian function. The analytical potential distribution model has been derived from Poisson's equation, and threshold voltage has been obtained from this model. Since threshold voltage has been defined as gate voltage when surface potential is twice of Fermi potential, threshold voltage has been derived from analytical model of surface potential. Those results of this potential model are compared with those of numerical simulation to verify this model. As a result, since potential model presented in this paper is good agreement with numerical model, the threshold voltage characteristics have been considered according to the doping profile of DGMOSFET.

Halo pocket implantation in MOSFETs, which is known to be an efficient method to provent the punchthrough and threshold voltage roll-off phenomena, decreases the drain current of MOSFET devices. Although the decrease of the drain current in halo structure MOSFET is usually explained in terms of the increase of the threshold voltage, more decrease in the drain current than is predicted by the increased threshold voltage has experimentally been observed. In this work, the effect of halo doping profile on the drain current degradation is investigated in terms of the field distribution along the channel. Effective mobility model of the halo MOSFETs due to pocket implantation is presented and the degradation of the mobility is shown to be effective in the further decrease of the drain current. Present model is shown to be in good agreement with experimental results.

In this work, reliable methodology for device design is presented. Based on this method, the underlap length has been optimized for minimizing the gateinduced drain leakage (GIDL) in a 22-nm node 4-terminal (4-T) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) fin-shaped field effect transistor (FinFET) by TCAD simulation. In order to examine the effects of underlap length on GIDL more realistically, doping profile of the source and drain (S/D) junctions, carrier lifetimes, and the parameters for a band-to-band tunneling (BTBT) model have been experimentally extracted from the devices of 90-nm channel length as well as pnjunction test element groups (TEGs). It was confirmed that the underlap length should be near 15 nm to suppress GIDL effectively for reliable low standby power (LSTP) operation.

In this work, the frequency response of gate-all-around (GAA) Ge/GaAs heterojunction tunneling field-effect transistor (TFET) with hetero-gate-dielectric (HGD) and pnpn channel doping profile has been analysed by technology computer-aided design (TCAD) device-circuit mixed-mode simulations, with comparison studies among ppn, pnpn, and HGD pnpn TFET devices. By recursive tracing of voltage transfer curves (VTCs) of a common-source (CS) amplifier based on the HGD pnpn TFET, the operation point (Q-point) was obtained at $V_{DS}=1V$, where the maximum available output swing was acquired without waveform distortion. The slope of VTC of the amplifier was 9.21 V/V (19.4 dB), which mainly resulted from the ponderable direct-current (DC) characteristics of HGD pnpn TFET. Along with the DC performances, frequency response with a small-signal voltage of 10 mV has been closely investigated in terms of voltage gain ($A_v$), unit-gain frequency ($f_{unity}$), and cut-off frequency ($f_T$). The Ge/GaAs HGD pnpn TFET demonstrated $A_v=19.4dB$, $f_{unity}=10THz$, $f_T=0.487$ THz and $f_{max}=18THz$.

A silicon-gate n-well CMOS process with 3 $\mu$m gate length was developed and its possibility for the applications was discussed,. Threshold voltage was easily controlled by ion implantation and 3-$\mu$m gate length with 650 $\AA$ oxide shows ignorable short channel effect. Large value of Al-n+ contact resistance is one of the problems in fabrications of VLSI circuits. Transfer characteristics of CMOS inverter is fairly good and the propagation delay time per stage in ring oscillator with layout of (W/L) PMOS /(W/L) NMOS =(10/5)/(5/5) is about 3.4 nsec. catch-up occurs on substrate current of 3-5 mA in this process and critically dependent on the well doping density and nt-source to n-well space. Therefore, research, more on latch-up characteristics as a function of n-well profile and design rule, especially n+-source to n-well space, is required.
