A Compact Threshold Voltage Model for Gate Misalignment Effect of DG FD SOI nMOS Devices Considering Fringing Electric Field Effects

Abstract

This paper reports an analysis of gate misalignment effect on the threshold voltage of double-gate ultrathin fully depleted silicon-on-insulator nMOS devices using a compact model considering the fringing electric field effect, biased at zero-bias V/sub DS/. Using the conformal mapping transformation approach, a closed-form compact model considering the fringing electric field effect in the nongate overlap region has been derived to provide an accurate prediction of the threshold voltage behavior as verified by the two-dimensional simulation results.
