Abstract :
As the scaling of conventional MOSFETs approaches its technological limit, the double-gate (DG) MOSFETs have emerged as an important candidate for the next generation device. As a novel device with an additional fourth terminal, the DG devices have a potential to evolve not only in the More-Moore way, i.e. short channel effects and variation prevention, but also in the More-than-Moore direction, i.e. extra performance enhancement and novel functionality.
