  • Abstract
    In this paper, strain induced Si MOSFETs with multiple contact positioning strategies are simulated by ISE TCAD tool. The strain distribution of the MOSFETs with symmetric and asymmetric drain/source structure is investigated. The performance of the devices such as the Idsat and transfer characteristics is also simulated and compared. The results will help to model the characteristics of MOSFETs considering layout dependence.
