Abstract :
The paper presents a comprehensive study of Spice modeling for some key physical effects observed in a 65 nm CMOS process. STI-induced stress effect, well proximity effect, as well as HCI and NBTI reliability effects, which can not be neglected for technologies beyond 90 nm and must be properly modeled for accurate circuit simulations, are discussed in this study.
