GATE DIELECTRIC BREAKDOWN PHYSICAL ANALYSIS AND STUDIES -2D MODELING OF BREAKDOWN THERMAL EFFECT
Ultra thin gate oxide reliability has been an important aspect in the sub-micron fabrication process. Structural deformation at the gate oxide is indeed important to understand the soft breakdown (SBD) and hard breakdown (HBD) mechanisms of a narrow channel MOSFET. During HBD or under favorable …

The effects of strain on carrier transport in thin and ultra-thin SOI MOSFETs
Thin-body MOSFET geometries such as fully-depleted SOI and double-gate devices are attractive because they can offer superior scaling properties compared to bulk and thick-body SOI devices. The electrostatics of a MOSFET limit how short of a gate length can be achieved before the gate loses control …
