Design of 30 nm FinFETs and Double Gate MOSFETs with Halo Structure

摘要

Design of the 30 nm FinFETs and Double Gate MOSFETs with the halo structure for suppressing the threshold voltage roll-otf and improving the subthreshold swing at the same time is proposed for the first time. The performances of nano scale FinFETs and Double Gate MOSFETs with the halo structure are analyzed using a two-dimensional device simulator. The device characteristics, focusing especially on the threshold voltage and subthreshold slope, are investigated for the different gate length, body thickness, and halo impurity concentration. From the viewpoint of body potential control, it is made clear on how to design the halo structure to suppress the short channel effects and improve the subthreshold-slope. It is shown that by introducing the halo structure to FinFETs and Double Gate MOSFETs, nano-scale FinFETs and Double Gate MOSFETs achieve an improved S-factor and suppressed threshold voltage V_(th) roll-off simultaneously.
