Charge-Based Model for Ultrathin Junctionless DG FETs, Including Quantum Confinement

Abstract

This paper presents a generalization of the charge-based model for ultrathin junctionless double-gate (JLDG) field-effect transistors (FETs) by including quantum electron density. The analytical derivation relies on a first-order correction to the infinite quantum well. When restricting the analysis to the first and second quantized states, the free carrier charge distribution and the current in an ultrathin body JLDG FETs are in agreement with numerical TCAD simulations in all the regions of operation, i.e., from deep depletion to accumulation and from linear to saturation.
