The inaccuracy of the bias-dependent gate-drain overlap capacitance $C_{gdo}$ simulation in original BSIM4 and BSIM4 macro model using a diode is analyzed in detail. It is found that the accuracy of the macro model is better than of the BSIM4. However, the macro model cannot be used in the linear region. In order to remove the inaccuracy of the conventional models, a new BSIM4 macro model with a physical bias-dependent $C_{gdo}$ equation is proposed and its accuracy is validated in the full bias range.

This work investigates the device degradation p-channel PD SOI devices at various applied voltages as well as stress temperatures with respect to Body-Contact SOI (BC-SOI) and Floating-Body SOI (FB-SOI) MOSFETs. It is observed that the drain current degradation at the gate voltage of the maximum gate current is more significant in FB-SOI devices than in BC-SOI devices. For a stress at the gate voltage of the maximum gate current and elevated temperature, it is worth noting that the $V_{PT}$ Will be decreased by the amount of the HEIP plus the temperature effects. For a stress at $V_{GS}$ = $V_{DS}$ . the drain current decreases moderately with stress time at room temperature but it decreases significantly at the elevated temperature due to the negative bias temperature instability.

A 2-dimensional numerical analysis is presented for thermal-electron heat conduction effects upon the electron transport and the drain current-voltage characteristics of submicron GaAs MESFETs, based on the use of a nonstationary hydrodynamic transport model. It is shown that for submicron GaAs MESFETs, electron heat conduction effects are significant on their internal electronic properties and also drain current-voltage characteristics. Due to electron heat conduction effects, the electron energy is greatly one-djmensionalized over the entire device region. Also, the drain current decreases continuously with increasing thermal conductivity in the saturation region of large drain voltages above 1 V. However, the opposite trend is observed in the linear region of small drain voltages below 1 V. Accordingly, for a large thermal conductivity, negative differential resistance drain current characteristics are observed with a pronounced peak of current at the drain voltage of 1 V. On the contrary, for zero thermal conductivity, a Gunn oscillation characteristic is observed at drain voltages above 2 V under a zero gate bias condition.

In this work, we investigated the characteristics and the effects of light on the negative gate bias stress stability (NBS) in high mobility polycrystalline IGO TFTs. IGO TFT showed a high drain current on/off ratio of ${\sim}10^9$, a field-effect mobility of $114cm^2/Vs$, a threshold voltage of -4V, and a subthresholdslpe(SS) of 0.28V/decade from log($I_{DS}$) vs $V_{GS}$. IGO TFTs showed large negative $V_{TH}$ shift(17V) at light power of $5mW/cm^2$ with negative gate bias stress of -10V for 10000seconds, at a fixed drain voltage ($V_{DS}$) of 0.5V.

This paper shows some variable bias techniques which can improve the power added efficiency(PAE) for the designed power amplifier. Some simulations have been done to get the effect of the bias change, and variable bias is adopted to get the higher efficiency for dual mode amplifier which generates two different output power levels. With drain bias change and a fixed gate bias, the amplifier shows PAE improvement compared to the fixed bias amplifier. In addition, this paper analyzed nonlinear distortion of the power amplifier and has used the digital predistortion which can result in 10dB ACPR improvement for the dual band amplifier.

We quantitatively investigated instability mechanisms under simultaneous positive gate and drain bias stress (SPGDBS) in self-aligned top-gate amorphous indium-zinc-oxide thin-film transistors. After SPGDBS ($V_{GS}=13V$and $V_{DS}=13V$), the parallel shift of the transfer curve into a negative $V_{GS}$ direction and the increase of on current were observed. In order to quantitatively analyze mechanisms of the SPGDBS-induced negative shift of threshold voltage (${\Delta}V_T$), we experimentally extracted the density-of-state, and then analyzed by comparing and combining measurement data and TCAD simulation. As results, 19% and 81% of ${\Delta}V_T$ were taken to the donor-state creation and the hole trapping, respectively. This donor-state seems to be doubly ionized oxygen vacancy ($V{_O}^{2+}$). In addition, it was also confirmed that the wider channel width corresponds with more negative ${\Delta}V_T$. It means that both the donor-state creation and hole trapping can be enhanced due to the increase in self-heating as the width becomes wider. Lastly, all analyzed results were verified by reproducing transfer curves through TCAD simulation.

This paper presents the extraction and analysis of small-signal parameters of tunneling field-effect transistors (TFETs) by using TCAD device simulation. The channel lengths ($L_G$) of the simulated devices varies from 50 nm to 100 nm. The parameter extraction for TFETs have been performed by quasi-static small-signal model of conventional MOSFETs. The small-signal parameters of TFETs with different channel lengths were extracted according to gate bias voltage. The $L_G$-dependency of the effective gate resistance, transconductance, source-drain conductance, and gate capacitance are different with those of conventional MOSFET. The $f_T$ of TFETs is inverely proportional not to $L_G{^2}$ but to $L_G$.

The substrate parameters of Si MOSFET equivalent circuit model were directly extracted from measured S-Parameters in the GHz region by using simple 2-port parameter equations. Using the above extract ion method, bias and gate length dependent curves of substrate parameters in the RF region are obtained by varying drain voltage at several short channel devices with various gate lengths. These extract ion data will greatly contribute to scalable RF nonlinear substrate modeling.

This paper has presented the potential distribution for asymmetric double gate(DG) MOSFET, and sloved Poisson equation to obtain the analytical solution of potential distribution. The symmetric DGMOSFET where both the front and the back gates are tied together is three terminal device and has the same current controllability for front and back gates. Meanwhile the asymmetric DGMOSFET is four terminal device and can separately determine current controllability for front and back gates. To approximate with experimental values, we have used the Gaussian function as doping distribution in Poisson equation. The potential distribution has been observed for gate bias voltage and gate oxide thickness and channel doping concentration of the asymmetric DGMOSFET. As a results, we know potential distribution is greatly changed for gate bias voltage and gate oxide thickness, especially for gate to increase gate oxide thickness. Also the potential distribution for source is changed greater than one of drain with increasing of channel doping concentration.
