Compact Subthreshold Current Modeling of Short-Channel Nanoscale Double-Gate MOSFET

摘要

A physics-based compact subthreshold current model for short-channel nanoscale double-gate MOSFETs is presented. The potential is modeled using conformal mapping techniques in combination with parabolic approximations. For subthreshold conditions, we have assumed that the electrostatics is dominated by capacitive coupling between the body electrodes. Hence, the potential is obtained as an analytical solution of the 2-D Laplace equation. The current modeling is based on drift-diffusion theory. The modeling results are in good agreement with those of numerical simulations without the use of adjustable parameters.
