Abstract :
For the first time an analytical expression can simulate the inverse-narrow-width effect. The inverse-narrow-width effect is a reduction in the threshold voltage of a MOSFET with decreasing channel width. We compare the model with experimental threshold voltage data from small-geometry PMOS devices with fully recessed isolation oxides and an inverse-narrow-width effect is predicted.
