Abstract :
We investigate by Monte Carlo simulation the strain-induced performance enhancement in n- and p-type SSDOI-MOSFETs under scaling to LG=10 nm with constant Ioff-obtained via adjusting the Si film thickness tSi. The improvement in the order of 30% at 50 and 25 nm strongly decreases at 10 nm involving even an absolute decrease of Ion.
