This book was released on 2013 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "With voltage scaling to reduce power consumption in scaled transistors the subthreshold swing is becoming a critical factor influencing the minimum voltage margin between the transistor on and off-states. Conventional metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) are fundamentally limited to a 60 mV/dec swing due to the thermionic emission current transport mechanism at room temperature. Tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs) utilize band-to-band tunneling as the current transport mechanism resulting in the potential for sub-60 mV/dec subthreshold swings and have been identified as a possible replacement to the MOSFET for low-voltage logic applications. The TFET operates as a gated p-i-n diode under reverse bias where the gate electrode is placed over the intrinsic channel allowing for modulation of the tunnel barrier thickness. When the barrier is sufficiently thin the tunneling probability increases enough to allow for significant number of electrons to tunnel from the source into the channel. To date, experimental TFET reports using III-V semiconductors have failed to produce devices that combine a steep subthreshold swing with a large enough drive current to compete with scaled CMOS. This study developed the foundations for TFET fabrication by improving an established Esaki tunnel diode process flow and extending it to include the addition of a gate electrode to form a TFET. The gating process was developed using an In0.53Ga0.57As TFET which demonstrated a minimum subthreshold slope of 100 mV/dec. To address the issue of TFET drive current an InAs/GaSb heterojunction TFET structure was investigated taking advantage of the smaller tunnel barrier height."--Abstract.

This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With transistor technology close to its limits for power constrained scaling and the simultaneous emergence of mobile devices as the dominant driver for new scaling, a pathway to significant reduction in transistor operating voltage to 0.5V or lower is urgently sought. This however implies a fundamental paradigm shift away from mature Silicon technology. III-V compound semiconductors hold great promise in this regard due to their vastly superior electron transport properties making them prime candidates to replace Silicon in the n-channel transistor. Among the plethora of binary and ternary compounds available in the III-V space, InxGa1-xAs alloys have attracted significant interest due to their excellent electron mobility, ideally placed bandgap and mature growth technology. Simultaneously, electrostatic control mandates multi-gate transistor designs such as the FinFET at extremely scaled nodes.This dissertation describes the experimental realization of III-V FinFETs incorporating InXGa1-XAs heterostructure channels for high performance, low power logic applications. The chapters that follow present experimental demonstrations, simulations and analysis on the following aspects (a) motivation and key figures of merit driving material selection and design; (b) dielectric integration schemes for high-k metal-gate stack (HKMG) realization on InXGa1-XAs, including surface clean and passivation techniques developed for high quality interfaces; (c) novel techniques for transport (mobility) characterization in nanoscale multi-gate FET architectures with experimental demonstration on In0.7Ga0.3As nanowires; (d) Indium composition and quantum confined channel design for InXGa1-XAs FinFETs and (e) InAs heterostructure designs for high performance FinFETs. Each chapter also contains detailed benchmarking of results against state of the art demonstrations in Silicon and III-V material systems. The dissertation concludes by assessing the feasibility of InXGa1-XAs FinFET devices as n-channel Silicon replacement for low power logic technology scaling.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As silicon CMOS technology continues to scale down its minimum critical dimension, it becomes increasingly difficult to enhance device switching speed due to fundamental limitations. Innovations in device structure and materials are pursued to accommodate improvement in performance as well as reduction in transistor size. For beyond-22-nm CMOS technology, III-V channel FETs are considered as a compelling candidate for extending the device scaling limit of low-power and high-speed operation, owing to their superb carrier transport properties and recent experimental advancements. In this thesis, device simulation, compact modeling, circuit design, circuit performance assessment and estimation of III-V logic transistors are carried out to study key considerations such as device pitch, parasitics, and the importance of PMOS for circuit-level performance. To effectively connect device characteristics with circuit design, a physics-based compact model for digital logic is constructed. The model encompasses effects such as field-confined and spatially-confined trapezoidal quantum well sub-band energies, gate leakage tunneling current and parasitic capacitance. The developed compact model contains only three fitting parameters and is verified by experiment and circuit simulations. The compact model enables other bodies of work for the purpose of circuit-level design and performance estimation. To demonstrate the capability of the model in a circuit environment we apply the compact model to composite circuits such as FO4 inverter chains and SRAM cache to evaluate and project performance and power trends for beyond-22-nm technology.

Download or read book Ferroelectric Gate Field Effect Transistor Memories written by Byung-Eun Park and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-02 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides comprehensive coverage of the materials characteristics, process technologies, and device operations for memory field-effect transistors employing inorganic or organic ferroelectric thin films. This transistor-type ferroelectric memory has interesting fundamental device physics and potentially large industrial impact. Among the various applications of ferroelectric thin films, the development of nonvolatile ferroelectric random access memory (FeRAM) has progressed most actively since the late 1980s and has achieved modest mass production levels for specific applications since 1995. There are two types of memory cells in ferroelectric nonvolatile memories. One is the capacitor-type FeRAM and the other is the field-effect transistor (FET)-type FeRAM. Although the FET-type FeRAM claims ultimate scalability and nondestructive readout characteristics, the capacitor-type FeRAMs have been the main interest for the major semiconductor memory companies, because the ferroelectric FET has fatal handicaps of cross-talk for random accessibility and short retention time. This book aims to provide readers with the development history, technical issues, fabrication methodologies, and promising applications of FET-type ferroelectric memory devices, presenting a comprehensive review of past, present, and future technologies. The topics discussed will lead to further advances in large-area electronics implemented on glass or plastic substrates as well as in conventional Si electronics. The book is composed of chapters written by leading researchers in ferroelectric materials and related device technologies, including oxide and organic ferroelectric thin films.
