Abstract :
In this work, we report the first observation of RTN in highly scaled InGaAs GAA MOSFETs fabricated by a top-down approach. RTN and low frequency noise were systematically studied for devices with various gate dielectrics, channel lengths and nanowire diameters. Mobility fluctuation is confirmed to be the source of low-frequency noise, showing 1/f characteristics. Low-frequency noise was found to decrease as the channel length scaled down from 80 nm to 20 nm, indicating the near-ballistic transport in highly scaled InGaAs GAA MOSFET.
