Abstract :
MOSFET´s with gate lengths down to 0.1 ¿m were characterized at low temperatures. Below 20 K, characteristic peaks in the transconductance were observed in weak and moderate inversion at low drain voltages. This result can be explained by quantum transport mediated by localized states in the channel.
