Impact of BOX scaling on 30 nm gate length FD SOI MOSFET

Abstract

This paper presents the first demonstration of ultra-thin BOX FD SOI devices with nominal gate length of 30 nm. The characteristics of FD SOI MOSFETs are investigated in detail as T/sub BOX/ is varied from 5 nm to 145 nm. In addition, optimum design regions of T/sub BOX/ for achieving performance requirements are demonstrated.
