Analytical surface potential modeling and simulation of junction-less double gate (JLDG) MOSFET for ultra low-power analog/RF circuits

摘要

In this paper, a simple structure for short channel junction-less double gate (JLDG) MOSFET is proposed. Further expression for surface potential of JLDG has been derived using 2D Poisson's equation. Based on the proposed analytical model for surface potential distribution along channel thickness and channel length is derived. The proposed junction-less MOSFET has no p-n junction as the doping of channel is same to that of Source/Drain region. The analytical model is compared with numerical solution using ATLAS device simulator. The result shows the variation of channel potential with channel length, channel thickness, doping concentration and applied gate bias. Further, in this paper the analog performance and RF figure of merits (FOMS) have been investigated. The purpose of this research is to provide a physical explanation for improved analog and RF performance exhibited by the device. In this paper major FOMs such as trans-conductance (g(m)), output conductance (g(d)), early voltage (V-EA), intrinsic gain (A(V)), transconductance generation factor (TGF), cut-off frequency (f(T)), trans-conductance frequency product (TFP), gain frequency product (GFP), gain trans-conductance frequency product (GTFP) are analyzed. The simulation result shows that the JLDG exhibit a higher trans-conductance, higher cut-off frequency and lower drain conductance. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
