The delay of a 2-input NAND gate with 65nm gate length transistors is extensively characterized by mixed-mode simulations which is then used as a library element. The variation in saturation current Ionat the device level, and the variation in rising/falling edge stage delay for the NAND gate at the circuit level, are taken as performance metrics. A 4-bit x 4-bit Wallace tree multiplier circuit is used as a representative combinational circuit to demonstrate the proposed methodology. The variation in the multiplier delay is characterized, to obtain delay distributions, by an extensive Monte Carlo analysis. An analytical model based on CV/I metric is proposed, to extend this methodology for a generic technology library with a variety of library elements.","PeriodicalId":429314,"journal":{"name":"2005 IEEE Conference on Electron Devices and Solid-State Circuits","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121710295","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the Quasi-SOI structure with the source/drain regions quasi-surrounded with insulator and the channel region directly connected with the bulk substrate, short channel effects (SCE), parasitic capacitance and self-heating effects (SHE) can be effectively reduced. The problem of degraded mobility and increased threshold voltage due to ultra-thin body in UTB SOI MOSFET's can also be solved. A method to fabricate the Quasi-SOI MOSFET is put forward. Process-device co-simulation results further show good scaling capability and excellent heat dissipation of the Quasi-SOI devices. In the SDON/SDOI device with the recessed S/D extension regions and source-drain staying on the partially buried layers, the advantages of quasi-SOI MOSFET can be maintained with the parasitic capacitance further reduced and the fabrication technology basically compatible with the standard CMOS technology.
