  • Abstract
    Direct tunneling (DT) gate current of deep submicron strained-Si (SS) on relaxed Si1-xGex metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) structures is calculated under inversion bias for both n and p type substrates. Comparison of DT current between strained and unstrained devices has also been made under matched threshold voltage condition. It has been found that strain induced changes in DT current more complex in SS-pMOS devices than in SS-nMOS devices due to the inclusion of the bowing effect in the SS bandgap
