Subthreshold Degradation of Gate-all-Around Silicon Nanowire Field-Effect Transistors: Effect of Interface Trap Charge

초록

We measured and analyzed the subthreshold degradation of the gate-all-around (GAA) silicon nanowire field-effect transistors with the length of 300/500 nm and the radius of 5 nm. An analytical model incorporating the effect of interface traps quantitatively explained the measured subthreshold swing (SS) degradation. A simple electrostatic argument showed that the GAA device had smaller degradation of SS values than planar devices for the same interface trap densities.
