Improved parametric analysis of cylindrical surrounding double-gate (CSDG) MOSFET.

Masters Degree. University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban.Transistors are major components in designing and fabricating high-speed switching devices and micro-electronics. The Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) is popular and highly efficient for designing switches. It has wide applications in microelectronics, nanotechnology and Very Large-Scale Integration (VLSI) design where millions of MOSFETs are fabricated and embedded into a single chip. In these applications, heat becomes a major concern and requires to be addressed. The Cylindrical Surrounding Double-Gate (CSDG) MOSFET was introduced to overcome this challenge. The device has two scaled channel paths in a cylindrical two-gate structure, which have excellent control on the electrostatic activities that take place along the channel. This help to reduce corner effect and short channel effect and in turn produce higher drain current. This research work explores these advantages to propose a novel structure for an improved CSDG MOSFET. Firstly, the physical dimensions and structural layout of the improved CDSG MOSFET are highlighted and explained. After that, a parametric analysis of the CDSG MOSFET design has been done. This includes and supported with mathematical analysis and derivation of its operational parameters, namely surface potential, drain current, threshold voltage, transconductance, carrier mobility and capacitive characteristics etc. Thirdly, the thermal effects of this proposed device is analysed at different temperature. Also, the performance of the CDSG MOSFET is analyzed and compared to other existing MOSFET structures. The results from this analysis show that the improved CDSG MOSFET outperforms other existing MOSFETs. In fact, its power consumption is shown to be lower than those of other compared MOSFETs. A practical application of this device as an amplifier also yields plausible performance in terms of amplification gain and efficiency over a wide range of temperatures

Devenlopment of Compact Small Signal Quasi Static Models for Multiple Gate Mosfets

En esta tesis hemos desarrollado los modelos compactos explícitos de carga y de capacitancia adaptados para los dispositivos dopados y no dopados de canal largo (DG MOSFETs dopados, DG MOSFETs no dopados, UTB MOSFETs no dopados y SGT no dopados) de un modelo unificado del control de carga derivado de la ecuación de Poisson. El esquema de modelado es similar en todos estos dispositivos y se adapta a cada geometría. Los modelos de la C.C. y de la carga son completamente compatibles. Las expresiones de la capacitancia se derivan del modelo de la carga. La corriente, la carga total y las capacitancias se escriben en términos de las densidades móviles de la carga en los extremos de fuente y drenador del canal. Las expresiones explícitas e infinitamente continuas se utilizan para las densidades móviles de la carga en la fuente y drenador. Las capacitancias modeladas demuestran el acuerdo excelente con las simulaciones numéricas 2D y 3D (SGT), en todos los regímenes de funcionamiento. Por lo tanto, el modelo es muy prometedor para ser utilizado en simuladores del circuito. Desafortunadamente, no mucho trabajo se ha dedicado a este dominio de modelado. Las cargas analíticas y las capacitancias, asociadas a cada terminal se prefieren en la simulación de circuito. Con respecto al SGT MOSFET, nuestro grupo fue el primero en desarrollar y publicar un modelo de las cargas y de las capacitancias intrínsecas, que es también analítico y explícito. La tesis es organizada como sigue: el capítulo (1) presenta el estado del arte, capítulo (2) el modelado compacto de los cuatro dispositivos: DG MOSFETs dopados, DG MOSFETs no dopados, UTB MOSFETs no dopados y SGT no dopados; en el capítulo (3) estudiamos las capacitancias de fricción en MuGFETs. Finalmente el capítulo (4) resuma el trabajo hecho y los futuros objetivos que necesitan ser estudiados. Debido a la limitación de los dispositivos optimizados disponibles para el análisis, la simulación numérica fue utilizada como la herramienta principal del análisis. Sin embargo, cuando estaban disponibles, medidas experimentales fueron utilizadas para validar nuestros resultados. Por ejemplo, en la sección 2A, en el caso de DG MOSFETs altamente dopados podríamos comparar nuestros resultados con datos experimentales de FinFETs modelados como DG MOSFETs. La ventaja principal de este trabajo es el carácter analítico y explícito del modelo de la carga y de la capacitancia que las hace fácil de implementar en simuladores de circuitos. El modelo presenta los resultados casi perfectos para diversos casos del dopaje y para diversas estructuras no clásicas del MOSFET (los DG MOSFETs, los UTB MOSFETs y los SGTs). La variedad de las estructuras del MOSFET en las cuales se ha incluido nuestro esquema de modelado y los resultados obtenidos, demuestran su validez absoluta. En el capítulo 3, investigamos la influencia de los parámetros geométricos en el funcionamiento en RF de los MuGFETs. Demostramos el impacto de parámetros geométricos importantes tales como el grosor de la fuente y del drenador o, el espaciamiento de las fins, la anchura del espaciador, etc. en el componente parásito de la capacitancia de fricción de los transistores de la múltiple-puerta (MuGFET). Los resultados destacan la ventaja de disminuir el espaciamiento entre las fins para MuGFETs y la compensación entre la reducción de las resistencias parásitas de fuente y drenador y el aumento de capacitancias de fricción cuando se introduce la tecnología del crecimiento selectivo epitaxial (SEG). La meta de nuestro estudio y trabajo es el uso de nuestros modelos en simuladores de circuitos. El grupo de profesor Aranda, de la Universidad de Granada ha puesto el modelo actual de SGT en ejecución en el simulador Agilent ADS y buenos resultados fueron obtenidos.In this thesis we have developed explicit compact charge and capacitance models adapted for doped and undoped long-channel devices (doped Double-Gate (DG) MOSFETs, undoped DG MOSFETs, undoped Ultra-Thin-Body (UTB) MOSFETs and undoped Surrounding Gate Transistor (SGT)) from a unified charge control model derived from Poisson's equation. The modelling scheme is similar in all these devices and is adapted to each geometry. The dc and charge models are fully compatible. The capacitance expressions are derived from the charge model. The current, total charges and capacitances are written in terms of the mobile charge sheet densities at the source and drain ends of the channel. Explicit and infinitely continuous expressions are used for the mobile charge sheet densities at source and drain. As a result, all small signal parameters will have an infinite order of continuity. The modeled capacitances show excellent agreement with the 2D and 3D (SGT) numerical simulations, in all operating regimes. Therefore, the model is very promising for being used in circuit simulators. Unfortunately, not so much work has been dedicated to this modelling domain. Analytical charges and capacitances, associated with each terminal are preferred in circuit simulation. Regarding the surrounding-gate MOSFET, our group was the first to develop and publish a model of the charges and intrinsic capacitances, which is also analytic and explicit. The thesis is organized as follows: Chapter (1) presents the state of the art, Chapter (2) the compact modeling of the four devices: doped DG MOSFETs, undoped DG MOSFETs, undoped UTB MOSFETs and undoped SGT; in Chapter (3) we study the fringing capacitances in MuGFETs. Finally Chapter (4) summarizes the work done and the future points that need to be studied. Due to the limitation of available optimized devices for analysis, numerical simulation was used as the main analysis tool. However, when available, measurements were used to validate our results. The experimental part was realised at the Microelectronics Laboratory, Université Catholique de Louvain, Louvain-la Neuve, Belgium. For example, in section 2A, in the case of highly-doped DG MOSFETs we could compare our results with experimental data from FinFETs modeled as DG MOSFETs. The main advantage of this work is the analytical and explicit character of the charge and capacitance model that makes it easy to implement in circuit simulators. The model presents almost perfect results for different cases of doping (doped/undoped devices) and for different non classical MOSFET structures (DG MOSFET, UTB MOSFETs and SGT). The variety of the MOSFET structures in which our modeling scheme has been included and the obtained results, demonstrate its absolute validity. In chapter 3, we investigate the influence of geometrical parameters on the RF performance in MuGFETs. We show the impact of important geometrical parameters such as source and drain thickness, fin spacing, spacer width, etc. on the parasitic fringing capacitance component of multiple-gate field-effect transistors (MuGFET). Results highlight the advantage of diminishing the spacing between fins for MuGFETs and the trade-off between the reduction of parasitic source and drain resistances and the increase of fringing capacitances when Selective Epitaxial Growth (SEG) technology is introduced. The goal of our study and work is the usage of our models in circuit simulators. This part, of implementing and testing our models of these multi gate MOSFET devices in circuit simulators has already begun. The group of Professor Aranda, from the University of Granada has implemented the SGT current model in the circuit simulator Agilent ADS and good results were obtained

Design and analytical performance of subthreshold characteristics of CSDG MOSFET.

Masters Degree. University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban.The downscaling of the Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFET) devices have been the driving force for Nanotechnology and Very Large-Scale Integration (VLSI) systems. This is affirmed by Moore’s law which states that “The number of transistors placed in an Integrated Circuit (IC) or chip doubles approximately every two years”. The main objectives for the transistor scaling are: to increase functionality, switching speed, packing density and lower the operating power of the ICs. However, the downscaling of the MOSFET device is posed with various challenges such as the threshold roll-off, Drain Induced Barrier Lowing (DIBL), surface scattering, and velocity saturation known as Short Channel Effects (SCEs). To overcome these challenges, a cylindrically structured MOSFET is employed because it increases the switching speed, current flow, packing density, and provides better immunity to SCEs. This thesis proposes a Cylindrical Surrounding Double-Gate (CSDG) MOSFET which is an extended version of Double-Gate (DG) MOSFET and Cylindrical Surrounding-Gate (CSG) MOSFET in terms of form factor and current drive respectively. Furthermore, employing the Evanescent-Mode analysis (EMA) of a two-dimensional (2D) Poisson solution, the performance analysis of the novel CSDG MOSFET is presented. The channel length, radii Silicon film difference, and the oxide thickness are investigated for the CSDG MOSFET at the subthreshold regime. Using the minimum channel potential expression obtained by EMA, the threshold voltage and the subthreshold swing model of the proposed CSDG MOSFET are evaluated and discussed. The device performance is verified with various values of radii Silicon film difference and gate oxide thickness Finally, the low operating power and switching characteristics of the proposed CSDG MOSFET has been employed to design a simple CSDG bridge rectifier circuit for micropower electricity (energy harvester). Similar to the traditional MOSFETs, the switching process of CSDG MOSFET is in two operating modes: switch-ON (conduction of current between the drain and source) or switched-OFF (no conduction of current). However, unlike the traditional diode bridge rectifier which utilizes four diodes for its operation, the CSDG bridge rectifier circuits employs only two CSDGs (n-channel and p- channel) for its operation. This optimizes cost and improves efficiency. Finally, the results from the analyses demonstrate that the proposed CSDG MOSFET is a promising device for nanotechnology and self-micro powered device system application

Design evolution of dual-material gate structure in cylindrical surrounding double-gate (CSDG) MOSFET using physics-based analytical modeling.

Doctoral Degree. University of KwaZulu- Natal, Durban.The Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) is the fundamental component in present Micro and Nano-electronics device applications, such as switching, memory devices, communication devices, etc. MOSFET’s dimension has shrunk down following Moore’s law to attain high-speed operation and packing density integration. The scaling of conventional MOSFET has been the most prominent technological challenge in the past few years because the decreasing device dimensions increase the charge sharing from the source to the drain and that in turn give rises to the reduced gate-control over the channel, hot carrier induced degradation, and other SCEs. These undesired effects devaluate the device performance that compels optimum device design analysis for particular operating conditions. Therefore, several innovative device design/architectures, including Double-gate, FinFET, Surrounding gate MOSFET, etc., have been developed to mitigate device scaling challenges. Comprehensive research can be traced long for one such promising gate-all-around MOSFET, i.e., Cylindrical Surrounding Double-Gate (CSDG) MOSFET centrally hollow concentric structure, provides an additional internal control gate that improves the device electrical performance and offers easy accessibility. There have been several developments in terms of improvements, and applications of CSDG MOSFET have been practiced since after its evolution. This thesis’s work has been targeted to incorporate the gate material engineering in the CSDG structure after appropriate analysis of device physics-based modeling. In particular to the proposed structure, the electric field, pinch off capacitance, and after that thickness of the device parameters’ dependence have been mathematically derived from attaining the objective. Finally, a model based on a dual-material gate in CSDG MOSFET has been proposed. The electrical field in CSDG MOSFET has been analyzed in detail using a mathematical derivation of device physics, including the Surface-Potential, threshold voltage, and the gate-oxide capacitances of the internal and external part of the device. Further, the gate-oxide capacitance of CSDG MOSFET, particularly to the device pinch-off condition, has been derived. Since the device operation and analysis at the shorter channel are not similar to conventional long-channel MOSFETs, the depletion-width variation has been studied. The identified notion has been applied to derive the approximate numerical solution and silicon thickness inducing parameters for CSDG MOSFET to deploy the improvements in the device performance and novel design modifications. As the gate-material and gate-stack engineering is an alternative to overcome the device performance degradation by enhancing the charge transport efficiency, the CSDG MOSFET in a novel Dual-Metal Gate (DMG) structure design has been proposed and analyzed using the solution of 2D Poisson’s equations in the geometrical boundary conditions of the device. The model expressions obtained solution using the proposed structure has been compared with a single metal gate structure. Finally, it has been analyzed that the proposed model exhibits an excellent match with the analytical model. The obtained DMG device structure advances the carrier velocity and transport efficiency, resulting in the surface-potential profile caused by dissimilar gate metal work-function. The superior device characteristics obtained employing a dual-material structure in CSDG are promising and can reduce the threshold voltage roll-off, suppress the hot-carrier effects and SCEs

PERFORMANCE AND A NEW 2-D ANALYTICAL MODELING OF A DUAL-HALO DUAL-DIELECTRIC TRIPLE-MATERIAL SURROUNDING-GATE-ALL-AROUND (DH-DD-TM-SGAA) MOSFET

This proposed work covers the effect of dual halo structure with dual dielectric. A 2-D analytical model for potential distribution, threshold voltage, electric field and sub-threshold swing has been described through the Poisson’s equation solution for a novel structure known as dual-halo dual-dielectric triple-material surrounding-gate MOSFET to diminish short channel effects. The new device has been incorporated with Dual halo near the source and drain sides, while the electrode at the gate incorporates three dissimilar work function metals. A relative estimation of short channel effects (SCEs) for DHDD-TM-SG, triple-material surrounding-gate (TM-SG) and single-halo triplematerial surrounding-gate (SH-TM-SG) MOSFETs has also been carried out in terms of threshold-voltage-roll-off, drain induced barrier lowering, hot carrier effects, and also sub-threshold swing. The proposed novel structure significantly reduces the SCEs. Therefore, DH-DD-TM-SG MOSFETs have superior performance than TM-SG and SH-TM-SG MOSFETs. The efficiency of the Dual halo-doped device is investigated. The proposed model demonstrates its validity by a comparing the simulated results from already published devices obtained by using TCAD Silvaco

Compact modeling of the rf and noise behavior of multiple-gate mosfets

La reducción de la tecnología MOSFET planar ha sido la opción tecnológica dominante en las últimas décadas. Sin embargo, hemos llegado a un punto en el que los materiales y problemas en los dispositivos surgen, abriendo la puerta para estructuras alternativas de los dispositivos. Entre estas estructuras se encuentran los dispositivos DG, SGT y Triple-Gate. Estas tres estructuras están estudiadas en esta tesis, en el contexto de rducir las dimensiones de los dispositivos a tamaños tales que los mecanismos cuánticos y efectos de calan coro deben tenerse n cuenta. Estos efectos vienen con una seria de desafíos desde el pun to de vista de modelación, unos de los más grandes siendo el tiempo y los recursos comprometidos para ejecutar las simulaciones. para resolver este problema, esta tesis propone modelos comlets analíticos y compactos para cada una de las geometrías, validos desde DC hasta el modo de operación en Rf para los nodos tecnológicos futuros. Dichos modelos se han extendido para analizar el ruido de alta frecuencia en estos diapositivos

Analytical Modeling of Ultrashort-Channel MOS Transistors

Les geometries de transistors d'avui són al rang de nanòmetres d'un sol dígit.

La validez del concepto de dimensiones DG equivalentes se demuestra mediante datos de mediciones y de simulaciones TCAD Sentaurus, mientras que el método de wavelets se verifica mediante simulaciones NanoMOS NEGF.Today's transistor geometries are in the single-digit nanometer range. Consequently, device functionalities are negatively affected by short-channel and quantum mechanical effects (SCEs & QMEs). A transition from fin field-effect transistor (FinFET) geometry to gate-all-around (GAA) FETs such as cylindrical nanowire (NW) and silicon nanosheet (SiNS) FETs is envisioned in the upcoming technology nodes to suppress SCEs and ensure further MOSFET miniaturization. This dissertation focuses on the analytical modeling of ultrashort-channel NW and SiNS FETs. An equivalent double-gate (DG) dimensions concept is introduced to transfer an analytical DG potential model to NW FETs. A compact DG current model is modified by exploiting the rotational symmetry of NW FETs. The effect of quantum confinement (QC) is implemented by considering the additional bandgap widening in the calculation of an effective intrinsic charge carrier concentration and in the calculation of the threshold voltage. The effect of direct source-to-drain tunneling (DSDT) current in ultrascaled SiNS FETs is modeled with the new wavelet approach. This model calculates the tunneling probability analytically for each electron energy by approximating the potential barrier shape by a rectangular barrier with an equivalent barrier height. Due to the nonanalytically integrable Tsu-Esaki tunneling formula an analytical approach named quasi-compact model (QCM) is presented. This approach requires, among other approximations, a Newton iteration, and a linear interpolation of the tunneling current density. Furthermore, a cryogenic temperature and doping analysis is performed. The strong influence of the distance of the source related Fermi level from the conduction band edge on the subthreshold swing, current, and drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL) saturation is investigated. Also, the merging of two subthreshold swing and DIBL effects is demonstrated and explained. The validity of the equivalent DG dimensions concept is proven by measurement and TCAD Sentaurus simulation data, while the wavelet approach is verified by NanoMOS NEGF simulations

Simulation of FinFET Structures

The intensive downscaling of MOS transistors has been the major driving force behind the aggressive increases in transistor density and performance, leading to more chip functionality at higher speeds. While on the other side the reduction in MOSFET dimensions leads to the close proximity between source and drain, which in turn reduces the ability of the gate electrode to control the potential distribution and current flow in the channel region and also results in some undesirable effects called the short-channel effects. These limitations associated with downscaling of MOSFET device geometries have lead device designers and researchers to number of innovative techniques which include the use of different device structures, different channel materials, different gate-oxide materials, different processes such as shallow trench isolation, source/drain silicidation, lightly doped extensions etc. to enable controlled device scaling to smaller dimensions. A lot of research and development works have been done in these and related fields and more remains to be carried out in order to exploit these devices for the wider applications

Charge-based compact model of gate-all-around floating gate nanowire with variable oxide thickness for flash memory cell

Due to high gate electrostatic control and introduction of punch and plug process technology, the gate-all-around (GAA) transistor is very promising in, and apparently has been utilized for, flash memory applications. However, GAA Floating Gate (GAA-FG) memory cell still requires high programming voltage that may be susceptible to cell-to-cell interference. Scaling down the tunnel oxide can reduce the Program/Erase (P/E) voltage but degrades the data retention capability. By using Technology-Computer-Aided-Design (TCAD) tools, the concept of tunnel barrier engineering using Variable Oxide Thickness (VARIOT) of low-k/high-k stack is utilized in compensating the trade-off between P/E operation and retention characteristics. Four high-k dielectrics (Si3N4, Al2O3, HfO2 and ZrO2) that are commonly used in semiconductor process technology are examined with SiO2 as its low-k dielectric. It is found that by using SiO2/Al2O3 as the tunnel layer, both the P/E and retention characteristics of GAA-FG can be compensated. About 30% improvement in memory window than conventional SiO2 is obtained and only 1% of charge-loss is predicted after 10 years of applying gate stress of -3.6V. Compact model of GAA-FG is initiated by developing a continuous explicit core model of GAA transistor (GAA Nanowire MOSFET (GAANWFET) and Juntionless Nanowire Transitor (JNT)). The validity of the theory and compact model is identified based on sophisticated numerical TCAD simulator for under 10% maximum error of surface potential. It is revealed that with the inclusion of partial-depletion conduction, the accuracy of the core model for GAANWFET is improved by more than 50% in the subthreshold region with doping-geometry ratio can be as high as about 0.86. As for JNT, despite the model being accurate for doping-geometry ratio upto 0.6, it is also independent of fitting parameters that may vary under different terminal biases or doping-geometry cases. The compact model of GAA-FG is completed by incorperating Charge Balance Model (CBM) into GAA transistor core model where good agreement is obtained with TCAD simulation and published experimental work. The CBM gives better accuracy than the conventional capacitive coupling approach under subthreshold region with approximately 10% error of floating gate potential. Therefore, the proposed compact model can be used to assist experimental work in extracting experimental data
