  • Abstract
    There are several reports on the enhancement of low field electron mobility in SOI thin-film fully depleted Si-MOSFETs. This behavior is attributed to channel inversion layer broadening and reduced SiO2 /Si interface scattering with the reduction of transverse electric field in SOI MOSFETs. In this short paper, the tensile strain existing in the surface Si layer of SOI structures and its effects on the mobility behavior of SOI n-MOSFETs are discussed
