Abstract :
A systematic simulation study of intrinsic parameter fluctuations within a real 35 nm MOSFET is presented. The simulations are calibrated against experimental data and a systematic analysis of the effects of discrete random dopants, line edge roughness and oxide thickness fluctuation on device behavior is performed. The combined effects of pairs of fluctuation sources are also studied showing the statistical independence of these sources.
