Design and Performance Analysis of Advanced MOSFET Structures

Abstract

With respect to semiconductor industry, Complementary metal oxide semiconductor is considered to be successful because of integration in Integrated Circuits (ICs). As transistor size is shrinked exponentially, there is an exponential increase in number of transistors on a chip. This potential of increase in number of transistors on chip is achieved by scaling of Metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET). With scaling, the characteristics of devices are also degraded. Several advanced MOSFETs like Multigate transistors (Double gate, triple gate, Gate all around), Junctionless transistors and Tunnel FETs are proposed recently. These are thought to aid Moore’s law and scaling of transistors to next decade and continue improvement in computer performance. This paper presents 2D ATLAS simulation of high-K gate dielectric engineered Double gate metal oxide field effect transistor (DGMOSFET). The performance parameters for bulk MOSFET is poor as the transistors on integrated circuit is increasing. Therefore various challenges are invoked in nanometer scale. The new devices to control these challenges is needed and thus a non planar multigate structures are emerged. These structures have shown considerably better performance in nanometer scale. The surface potential for different dielectric materials for a fixed channel length and variation of surface potential for different channel lengths in a fixed dielectric materials is shown. In similar way the electron concentration along the length of channel is shown.
