Abstract :
Using direct bonded SOI wafers just 40 nm thick, we fabricated p/sup +/-n/sup +/ double-gate SOI MOSFETs. These devices, with an appropriate Vth, have good short-channel behavior and a large drive current. For Lg=0.19 /spl mu/m, we obtained an inverter delay time of 43 ps at 1 V, and 27 ps at 2 V. These are the fastest reported values for this gate length. The high performance is attributed to the large drain current, the low series resistance, and the reduction of the parasitic drain junction capacitance.<>
