Abstract :
We discussed the optimization of structure and doping profile of bulk-FinFETs by using 3D process and device simulations. The channel profile was determined so as to realize higher drive current as well as lower punch-through current. The analysis of stress field for bulk-FinFETs and SOI-FinFETs revealed that the channel stress induced by a stress liner (SL) in the bulk-FinFET is larger than that for the SOI-FinFET. In addition, we applied a raised source/drain (RSD) structure to the bulk-FinFETs and optimized doping profile in the RSD region. The combination of stress liner and RSD structure is found to be efficient for improving drive current of a bulk-FinFET
