By reformulating the NEGF equations in terms of integrated transverse momentum modes, the computational burden has been significantly reduced. This allows treatment of both quantum mechanics and dissipative electron-phonon scattering processes for device sizes from nanometers to microns. The formalism is rigorously benchmarked against semiclassical Monte Carlo transport.","PeriodicalId":6433,"journal":{"name":"2010 Silicon Nanoelectronics Workshop","volume":"50 1","pages":"1-2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74597401","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}

The n+ poly-Si gate in the source side was step-etched and the whole surface of the poly-Si gate was covered with Ni film, followed by self-aligned silicide (salicide) process. The step-etched poly-Si layer in the source side was totally converted to Ni-rich silicide which resulted in a higher work function. On the other hand, in the drain side, only the upper part of thick poly-Si layer was silicided and the non-silicided lower part of the poly-Si layer was considered to be a gate with a lower work function. In DWG structure, the average electric field in the channel is enhanced, which increases electron velocity and thus improves the overall carrier transport efficiency. The fabricated DWG-LDMOST exhibited better device performances, such as 16.4 % improvement in field effect mobility and 3.3 % improvement in sub-threshold slope.","PeriodicalId":6433,"journal":{"name":"2010 Silicon Nanoelectronics Workshop","volume":"41 1","pages":"1-2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76296033","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}

Then, a systematic analysis of the measured drain current leads to a remarkable result: The hole mobility in the non-(001) corner is about two times higher than the (001) flat one, valid for all channel widths involved. This is due to the multi-facets around (110) and (111) orientations. The confirmative evidence is also presented: (i) the increased value of the parameter η in effective field to maintain the mobility universality and (ii) the low frequency noise measurement to ensure the corner gate oxide integrity.
