Abstract :
Ultralow off-current (Ioff les 1 pA/mum) ldquosilicon on thin BOX (SOTB)rdquo CMOSFETs were fabricated in 65-nm technology. Gate-induced drain leakage (GIDL) was adequately reduced by controlling the gate-overlap length with an additional offset spacer. Small threshold-voltage (Vth) variation under a wide-range back-gate-bias (Vbg) condition and suppressed Ioff variation by Vbg control were demonstrated. Faster inverter delay (taupd) than conventional low-standby-power (LSTP) bulk CMOS was also achieved.
