Analytical threshold voltage model for cylindrical surrounding-gate MOSFET with electrically induced source/drain extensions

Physics-based analytical threshold voltage model for cylindrical surrounding-gate MOSFET with electrically induced source/drain extensions is presented. The effect of inversion carriers on the channel’s potential is considered in presented model. Using this analytical model, the characteristics of EJ-CSG are investigated in terms of surface potential and electric field distribution, threshold voltage roll-off, and DIBL. Results show that the application of electrically induced S/D extensions to the cylindrical surrounding-gate MOSFET will successfully suppress the hot-carrier effects, threshold voltage roll-off, and DIBL. It is also revealed that a moderate side-gate bias voltage, a small gate oxide thickness, and a small silicon channel radius are needed to improve device characteristics. The derived analytical model is verified by its good agreement with the three-dimensional numerical device simulator ISE.
