Analysis of conduction in fully depleted SOI MOSFETs

摘要

The conduction characteristics of fully depleted SOI MOSFETs studied by theoretical analysis and computer simulation are discussed. In these devices the ideal inverse subthreshold slope of 59.6 mV/decade is obtained if the interface-state capacitances are much smaller than the gate-oxide and silicon-film capacitances. For above-threshold conduction, with decreasing silicon film thickness the inversion charges penetrate more deeply into the film and the transconductance increases because of the decreasing fraction of surface conduction.
