Abstract
Scaling limit of ultra-thin-body SOI-MOSFETs is quantitatively evaluated using device simulation, which takes into account full-band structure, quantum mechanical effects and quasi-ballistic effects. It was found that the SOI thickness (tSOI) cannot be decreased less than 3nm due to severe surface roughness (tSOI fluctuation) scattering. Further considering substrate bias optimization for both On- and Off-performance, the minimum attainable channel length is clarified.
