  • Abstract
    In order to design submicrometer Si MOSFETs properly, the specific contact resistivity ρc has to be controlled. The ρ c is known to be a function of both the barrier height and the Si surface doping concentration. An existing theory is used to generate ρc, emphasizing details in the practical regimes, with a careful choice of proper parameters such as the tunneling effective mass, which is a function of both temperature and doping concentration
