Abstract :
We examined reduced mobility for MISFETs with high-/spl kappa/ gate dielectrics, which cannot be explained just by one scattering mechanism. We developed a comprehensive mobility model, in which various possible scattering sources, including fixed charges, roughness, and phase separation, are unified to account for the reduced mobility.
