Abstract
A novel effective channel length (L eff) determination method applicable to LDD (lightly doped drain) MOSFETs is described. The new L eff, which is determined as a constant that minimizes bias-dependent dispersion of external resistance, is suited for representing device performance, both in linear and saturation regions. In addition, the bias-dependent L eff previously proposed is discussed and compared with metallurgical channel length. The idea of a local contribution factor to effective channel length is presented for analysis of these methods
