  • Abstract
    The effect of strain on carrier mobility in triple gate FDSOI nanowires is experimentally investigated through piezoresistance measurements. We propose an empirical model based on simple assumptions that allows fitting the piezoresistive coefficients as well as the carrier mobility for various device geometries. We highlight an enhanced strain effect for Trigate nanowires with channel height below 11nm.
