Abstract :
In this paper, an analytical model for the threshold voltage of FinFETs is proposed. The model is derived by approximating the 2D Poissonpsilas equation by a 1-D equation. Also, in the model, a coefficient denoted by H, is used to modify the estimated value of the gate capacitance. To assess the accuracy of the model, the model results are compared by those of the numerical simulations of the device. The comparison reveals a high accuracy for the proposed model.
