Abstract :
This paper uses the C++ to develop an adapted band matrix solver to simulate the i-v curve and the drain current of the 2-D double-gate n-channel MOSFET, including different doping concentrations which from 5×10 (cm-3) to 5×10 (cm-3) and channel thickness which from 5 nm to 15 nm. And it discusses the threshold voltage from the i-vg curve and selects the more appropriate doping concentration and channel thickness to complete the following experiments. And then it simulates if-vg curve to determine threshold voltage which can present the channel on-off situation and calculates drain current which is in different gate voltage. It also can simulate the electric potential of the x-axis and y-axis. In the figure of the electric potential we can obtain the depletion width. It also analyzes the subthreshold, the linear and the saturation region in i-v curve, and we can find out the values of sub-threshold swing in the subthreshold region of the i-v curve and the value of the drain current in the saturation region of the i-v curve. It compares the results with the other reference papers. Finally, the equations of the threshold voltage can be developed, and we calculate the threshold voltage of double-gate n-channel MOSFET. The result obtained by the equation of the threshold voltage will be compared with result by 2-D simulation. The depletion width can be obtained as an analytical equation. The analytical depletion width can be verified by the figure of the x-axis and y-axis electric potential from 2-D simulation. The 2-D simulation also verifies the result with the drain current equation which is obtained by Pois-son´s equation. For circuit application, an inverter including a double-gate n-channel MOSFET and a 100kΩ resistor will be used to simulate the vo-vi characteristics and analyzes the parameters of the inverter (e.g. VOh, VOl, Vih, Vil, VS), and the noise margin (e.g. NML, NMH) will be calculated in order to determine the inverter´s performance and quality.
