Abstract :
Describes the first engineering MOSFET effective-mobility model covering the temperature range 60-300 K which is important for low-temperature CMOS applications. The experimental data obtained using the split C/V method clearly demonstrate the deviations from the universal dependence of the effective mobility mu on the effective vertical field Eeff at low temperatures. The model presented in this letter is verified by comparison with experimental device characteristics and shows explicitly how the universal mu (Eeff) dependence emerges at the ambient temperature around 300 K.
