Abstract:
Starting from a three-dimensional transport model in the Landauer-Buttiker formalism we derive a scale-invariant expression for the drain current in a nano-transistor. Apart from dimensionless external parameters representing temperature, gate-, and drain voltage the normalized drain current depends on two dimensionless transistor parameters which are the characteristic length l and -width w of the electron channel. The latter quantities are the physical length and -width of the channel in units of the scaling length = ~(2mF )1=2. Here F is the Fermi energy in the source contact and m is the eective mass in the electron channel. In the limit of wide transistors and low temperatures we evaluate the scale-invariant IDVD characteristics as a function of the characteristic length. In the strong barrier regime, i. e. for l & 20 long-channel behavior is found. At weaker barriers source-drain tunneling leads to increasingly signicant deviations from the long-channel behavior. We compare with experimental results.

Abstract:
Intel Moore observed an exponential doubling in the number of transistors in every 18 months through the size reduction of transistor components since 1965. In viewing of mobile computing with insatiate appetite, we explored the necessary enhancement by an increasingly maturing nanotechnology and facing the inevitable quantum-mechanical atomic and nuclei limits. Since we cannot break down the atomic size barrier, the fact implies a fundamental size limit at the atomic/nucleus scale. This means, no more simple 18-month doubling, but other forms of transistor doubling may happen at a different slope. We are particularly interested in the nano enhancement area. (i) 3 Dimensions: If the progress in shrinking the in-plane dimensions is to slow down, vertical integration can help increasing the areal device transistor density. As the devices continue to shrink into the 20 to 30 nm range, the consideration of thermal properties and transport in such devices becomes increasingly important. (ii) Quantum computing: The other types of transistor material are rapidly developed in laboratories worldwide, for example, Spintronics, Nanostorage, HP display Nanotechnology, which are modifying this Law. We shall consider the limitation of phonon engineering fundamental information unit “Qubyte” in quantum computing, Nano/Micro Electrical Mechanical System (NEMS), Carbon Nanotubes, single-layer Graphenes, single-strip Nano-Ribbons, and so forth.

Abstract:
This paper presents a technique for the modeling and design of a nano scale CMOS inverter circuit using artificial neural network and particle swarm optimization algorithm such that the switching characteristics of the circuit is symmetric, that is, has nearly equal rise and fall time and equal output high-to-low and low-to-high propagation delay. The channel width of the transistors and the load capacitor value are taken as design parameters. The designed circuit has been implemented at the transistor-level and simulated using TSPICE for 45 nm process technology. The PSO-generated results have been compared with SPICE results. A very good accuracy has been achieved. In addition, the advantage of the present approach over an existing approach for the same purpose has been demonstrated through simulation results.

Abstract:
Low voltage application of Tunnel FET with steep subthreshold slope, has potential to replace its MOSFET counterpart for future scaling due to thermal limits imposed on nano-level transistors. Longer channel region increases the tunneling area results in increasing tunneling current and decreasing miller capacitance to improve device switching performance for digital application. A new pocket tunnel junction-less UTFET (JLUTFET) exploits increased channel length with U shape and high ON current capability of junction-less transistor provide better device performance in subthreshold region showing improvement in ION/IOFF(∼109) as compared to other similar conventional TFET and vertical TFET structures. The proposed nJLUTFET also shows lower drain induced barrier lowering (<20 mV/V) and near to ideal subthreshold slope (∼66 mV/decade). The temperature analysis plays a vital role to decide a stable ON and OFF-state performance of transistors. So, the proposed pocket JLUTFET is investigated for temperature variations (ranging 250–400 K) to characterize the performance such as transfer characteristics, Output characteristics and ION/IOFF ratio. The proposed n-channel JLUTFET has been designed on visual TCAD 2D/3D device simulator.

Abstract:
The project Meeting the Design Challenges of nano-CMOS Electronics ( http://www.nanocmos.ac.uk ) was funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council to tackle the challenges facing the electronics industry caused by the decreasing scale of transistor devices, and the inherent variability that this exposes in devices and in the circuits and systems in which they are used. The project has developed a grid-based solution that supports the electronics design process, incorporating usage of large-scale high-performance computing (HPC) resources, data and metadata management and support for fine-grained security to protect commercially sensitive datasets. In this paper, we illustrate how the nano-CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) grid has been applied to optimize transistor dimensions within a standard cell library. The goal is to extract high-speed and low-power circuits which are more tolerant of the random fluctuations that will be prevalent in future technology nodes. Using statistically enhanced circuit simulation models based on three-dimensional atomistic device simulations, a genetic algorithm is presented that optimizes the device widths within a circuit using a multi-objective fitness function exploiting the nano-CMOS grid. The results show that the impact of threshold voltage variation can be reduced by optimizing transistor widths, and indicate that a similar method could be extended to the optimization of larger circuits.

Abstract:
As the transistor sizes continue to shrink, quantum effects will significantly affect the circuit behavior. The inherent unreliability of nano-electronics will have significantly impact on the way of circuits design, so defects and faults of nano-scale circuit technologies have to be taken into account early in the design of digital systems. Fault-tolerant architectures may become a necessity to ensure that the underlying circuit could function properly. In CAD software, a same logic can be made out with different circuits but different design methodology can reach different soft error tolerance ability, so we must find a way to estimate the error rate of the circuit efficiently to make the design more fault tolerant. In this paper, a new way to fault tolerance design in nano-scale circuit by accurate soft error rate (SER) estimation is proposed. Transform matrix is used for SER computation and a design criteria is then proposed. Simulation results show that the proposed transform matrix model is effective for nano-scale circuits and the criteria delivered is suitable CAD tools development in nano-system design.

Abstract:
Dimensions of metal–oxide–semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) have been scaled down for decades to maintain the performance. So, as a result of aggressive scaling, gate oxide thickness approaches its manufacturing and physically limiting value of less than 2 nm in nano regime. Under such circumstances, gate leakage (tunneling) current has become a critical problem in nano domain as compared to subthreshold leakage current. Consequently, accurate quantitative understanding of gate tunneling leakage current is very important especially in context of low power VLSI application. In this work, gate tunneling currents have been modeled including the inevitable nano scale effects for a MOSFET having different high-k dielectric spacer such as SiO2 , Si3N4 , Al2O3 , HfO2 . The gate current model is compared and contrasted with santaurus simulation results and reported experimental result to verify the accuracy of the model. The agreement found was good, thus validating the developed analytical model. It is observed that neglecting nano scale effects may lead to large error in the calculated gate current. It is found in the results that gate leakage current decreases with the increase of dielectric constant of the gate spacer. Further, it is also reported that the spacer materials impact the threshold voltage, on current, off current, drain induced barrier lowering, and subthreshold slope of the device.

Abstract:
One of the major limiting factors of the CMOS device, circuit and system simulation in sub 100nm regimes is the statistical variability introduced by the discreteness of charge and granularity of matter. The statistical variability cannot be eliminated by tuning the layout or by tightening fabrication process control. Since the compact models are the key bridge between technology and design, it is necessary to transfer reliably the MOSFET statistical variability information into compact models to facilitate variability aware design practice. The aim of this project is the development of a statistical extraction methodology essential to capture statistical variability with optimum set of parameters particularly in industry standard compact model BSIM. This task is accomplished by using a detailed study on the sensitivity analysis of the transistor current in respect to key parameters in compact model in combination with error analysis of the fitted Id-Vg characteristics. The key point in the developed direct statistical compact model strategy is that the impacts of statistical variability can be captured in device characteristics by tuning a limited number of parameters and keeping the values for remaining major set equal to their default values obtained from the “uniform” MOSFET compact model extraction. However, the statistical compact model extraction strategies will accurately represent the distribution and correlation of the electrical MOSFET figures of merit. Statistical compact model parameters are generated using statistical parameter generation techniques such as uncorrelated parameter distributions, principal component analysis and nonlinear power method. The accuracy of these methods is evaluated in comparison with the results obtained from ‘atomistic’ simulations. The impact of the correlations in the compact model parameters has been analyzed along with the corresponding transistor figures of merit. The accuracy of the circuit simulations with different statistical compact model libraries has been studied. Moreover, the impact of the MOSFET width/length on the statistical trend of the optimum set of statistical compact model parameters and electrical figures of merit has been analyzed with two methods to capture geometry dependencies in proposed statistical models.

Abstract:
Molecular electronics pursues the use of molecules as fundamental electronic components. The inherent properties of molecules such as nano-size, low cost, scalability, and self-assembly are seen by many as a perfect complement to conventional silicon electronics. Molecule based electronics has captured the attention of a broad cross section of the scientific community. In molecular electronic devices, the possibility of having channels that are just one atomic layer thick, is perhaps the most attractive feature that takes the attention to graphene.The conductivity, stability, uniformity, composition, and 2D nature of graphene make it an excellent material for electronic devices. In this thesis we focused on Zigzag Graphene NanoRibbon(ZGNR) as a transmission channel. Due to the importance of an accurate description of the quantum effects in the operation of graphene devices, a full-quantum transport model has been adopted: the electron dynamics has been described by Density Functional Theory(DFT) and transport has been solved within the formalism of Non-Equilibrium Green’s Functions (NEGF). Using DFT and NEGF methods, the transport properties of ZGNR and ZGNR doped with Si are studied by systematically computing the transmission spectrum. It is observed that Si barrier destroyed the electronic transport properties of ZGNR, an energy gap appeared for ZGNR, and variations from conductor to semiconductor are displayed. Its followed by a ZGNR grown on a SiO2 crystal substrate, while substituting the Graphene electrodes with the Gold ones, and its effect on transmission properties have been studied. Improvement in transmission properties observed due to the formation of C-O bonds between ZGNR and substrate that make the ZGNR corrugated. Finally, we modeled a nano-scale Field Effect Transistor by implementing a gate under SiO2 substrate. A very good I-ON/I-OFF ratio has been observed although the device thickness.

In this thesis, we proposed and demonstrated a novel poly-Si TFT device with nano-scale fin-like channel featuring silicide source/drain and electrical junction induced by a sub-gate configuration lying over the passivation dielectric. The fin-like channel, which is consisted of as-deposited LPCVD poly-Si material, is surrounded on three sides by the main-gate, forming the “tri-gate” configuration. The drain-to-source leakage current can thus be effectively suppressed. Moreover, the controllability of short-channel effects is also significantly improved. The fabricated devices show excellent ambipolar subthreshold characteristics with steep subthreshold slope and high on/off current ratio. It is also shown that the application of sub-gate bias can not only increase the on-current, but also reduce the off-state leakage. Differences in device characteristics between poly-Si FinFETs fabricated in this study and the SOI FinFETs previously reported by a senior classmate (F. J. Hou) are also discussed in this thesis.

The goal of this thesis is aimed at the investigation upon the kinematic characteristics of the charge carriers within the silicon-based transistor under nano-scale effects, via classical transport model to include a quantum correction term so that the difference between quantum transport model and classical transport model can be unveiled. Based on the computer simulation of the commercial software nanoMOS, the impacts on nanowire field effect transistors due to various design of crystal structure and choice of doped material composition are analyzed. Conductance performance such as the sub-threshold swing and the threshold voltage are studied. Furthermore, this thesis utilizes software package VASP (Vienna ab initio Simulation Package) to simulate the behavior of the silicon-based nanowires by varying nanowires geometric cross-section and replacement of the silicon atoms in crystal by other elements, such that the induced distribution of the electron density of state of the nanowires owing to change of the crystal structure can be obtained. The simulation results provide essential basis for nanowires field effect transistor in structural design and potential choice of the device material for future developments. Finally, this thesis proposes a simple and easily realizable fabrication technique, sidewall spacer formation, for implementation of silicon nanowires.

In this thesis, we presented electrical characteristics of trapezoidal shaped channel for the junctionless (JL) bulk and silicon-on-insulator (SOI) FinFET are numerically explored by using 3D quantum-corrected device simulation. The dependence of device performances, including subthreshold slope, drain-induced barrier lowering, off-current and threshold voltage roll-off, on the various fin angle and fin height are investigated. The JL bulk FinFET exhibits excellent short channel characteristics, gate controllability over trapezoidal shaped channel and less sensitivity of the fin angle to electrical performances by reducing effective channel thickness that is caused by the channel/ substrate junction. Hence, the JL bulk FinFET is highly recommended in sub-10-nm nodes. Additionally, this work demonstrates for the first time the fabrication of a proposed hybrid P/N poly-Si channel junctionless thin-film transistor (JL-TFT) with nanowires and omega-gate structure. The novel hybrid P/N JL-TFTs showed excellent electrical performances in terms of a steep subthreshold swing of 64mV/dec, a high Ion/Ioff current ratio (>107), a low drain-induced barrier lowering value of 3 mV/V, small series resistance and temperature stability were investigated, indicating greater gate electrostatic controllability and less current crowding than in conventional JL-TFTs. Furthermore, simulated results and a quantum model physical model were discussed initially but not detailed enough for future work support experimental data. Hence, the proposed hybrid P/N JL-TFT is highly promising for future further sub-10-nm scaling and 3D stacked ICs applications.

In this study, functional reliability of MOS transistors with oxide thickness ranging from 3.3 nm down to 1.2 nm is investigated in detail. In contrast with most reliability tests which focus on oxide reliability, various mechanisms resulting in transistor performance degradation are examined, while the on-state drain conduction current and off-state drain leakage current are the two most decisive device parameters that dominates MOS transistor functional reliability in the ultra-thin oxide regime. The degradation of off-state drain leakage current is caused by lately observed oxide soft-breakdown within the gate-to-drain overlap area, and its dominance tends to grow with scaling oxide thickness. Through experimental data analyses and theoretical calculations, we verified the dependences of device lifetime on oxide electric field, failure rate and device dimension. On the basis of physical mechanisms and models, we propose a methodology for MOS transistor functional reliability evaluation and a correlated unified functional reliability model which may contribute to the microelectronics technology development in the near future.

In this work, we comprehensively study the device fabrication, electrical characteristic, and reliability of the various novel nano-scale Junctionless fin field-effect transistors for three-dimensional (3D) stacked IC application. In the first part of this work, the LTPS JL-GAA TFTs with ultra-thin channel are successfully fabricated by oxidation thinning method. Our JL device shows quasi-crystal channel due to the reduction of grain boundaries and defects, beneficial for excellent electrical performance. This process is simple and compatible with existing CMOS processes. Such a GAA JL feature simplifies the S/D engineering and the DIBL is very small. The low Ioff and steep SS in JL-GAA TFTs result in high on/off current ratio up to 108, which can be used in high-speed and low power consumption applications. We also measure the breakdown voltage of such device and compare it to IM TFT. Our JL TFT obtains higher breakdown voltage because the electric field in the device is uniformly distributed liked a resistor, indicating the potential of high-voltage application. The junctionless transistor is proposed to be a future device because of the simple fabrication and suffered the suppression of On-current owing to the thin channel structure. In the second part of this work, the raised source and drain (RSD) structure is combined with the juncitonless transistor for the improvement of On-current. In the basic electrical measurement, the On-current of the RSD device almost reaches 1A that is ten times for that of the non-RSD devices. The RSD juncitonless device gets the steep sub-threshold swing (SS=100mV/dec.) and the Off-current is low (10-14A) due to the remained thin channel structure. For reliability experiment, the temperature and the stress tests are taken for the RSD junctionless device. When the RSD junctionless device is heated up, the positive shifting of threshold voltage, degradation of SS and increase of the On-current as well as Off-current could be observed. The stress operation makes the electrical characteristics of the RSD junctionless device changes due to the trapped carriers injected by gate at the edges of the gate insulator. The special structure of the N-type RSD junctionless device called the dual gate is discussed. The two gates at the same layer would make the threshold voltage become tunable flexibly. For the N-type RSD junctionless device, when the bias-gate voltage is negative, the Vth would shift toward the right side. When the bias gate voltage is positive, the Vth would shift toward the left side. It should be noticed that the shifts of Vth is linear regression with the bias gate voltage as well as the change of the On-current fits the quadratic regression. In the last part of this work, the new structure of the junctionless device is brought up called Hybrid P/N channel. The idea of the Hybrid P/N channel is intrigued by the bulk device. The different type layers are stacked as the channel to enhance the simplicity of the fabrication for the thin channel. The performance of the Hybrid P/N is good with the low SS (64mV/dec.). The simulation is added for proving the existence of the depletion region. Using different doping concentration in Hybrid P/N channel devices can adjust Vth. In further, using back-gate achieves device multi-Vth adjustment without adding process budget and device performance optimization for increased Ion simultaneously decreased Ioff via negative back-gate bias, which becomes the key technology in low-power circuit and power management applications. We also success demonstrates a 3D stacked hybrid P/N layer in 3D stacked integrated circuit (IC) applications to increase transistor density for continuing Moore’s law, which provide valuable information regarding their practical industrial and academic applications. The 3D stacked hybrid P/N layer can increase on-state current and maintain low leakage current, small SS and great DIBL characteristics of short channel effect.

In first part, we study the electrical characteristics of a series of polysilicon thin-film transistors (poly-Si TFTs) with different numbers of multiple channels of various widths, with lightly-doped drain (LDD) structures. Among all investigated TFTs, the nano-scale TFT with ten 67 nm-wide split channels (M10) has superior and more uniform electrical characteristics than other TFTs, such as a higher ON/OFF current ratio (>109), a steeper subthreshold slope (SS) of 137 mV/decade, an absence of drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL) and a suppressed kink-effect. These results originate from the fact that the active channels of M10 TFT has best gate control due to its nano-wire channels were surrounded by tri-gate electrodes. Additionally, experimental results reveal that the electrical performance of proposed TFTs enhances with the number of channels from one to ten strips of multiple channels sequentially, yielding a profile from a single gate to tri-gate structure. Additionally, NH3-plasma passivation more efficiently affects M10 TFT than it does other TFTs. The M10 TFT has a split nano-wire structure, most of which is exposed to NH3 plasma passivation, further reducing the number of grain boundary defects. On the other hand, the ac and dc reliability of ten-nanowire poly-Si TFTs are investigated. In static and dynamic hot-carrier stress experiments, the ten-nanowire poly-Si TFTs reduces the degradation of Vth, SS, Ion, On/OFF ratio and DIBL, for all kind of frequency, rising time, falling time and temperature, compared to single-channel TFT. These high reliability results of multiple nanowire poly-Si TFTs can be also explained by its robust tri-gate control and its superior channel NH3 passivation on the poly-Si grain boundary. Devices that contain the proposed M10 TFT are highly promising for use in active-matrix liquid-crystal-display and 3-D CMOS technologies without any additional processing. In second part, the effects of channel width and NH3 plasma passivation on the electrical characteristics of a series of a novel 4-mask pattern-dependent metal-induced lateral crystallization (PDMILC) polysilicon thin-film transistors (poly-Si TFTs) were studied. The mobility and device performance of PDMILC TFTs improves as the each channel width decreasing. Furthermore, PDMILC TFTs with NH3 plasma passivation outperforms without such passivation, resulting from the effective hydrogen passivation of the grain-boundary dangling bonds, and the pile-up of nitrogen at the SiO2/poly-Si interface. In particular, the electrical characteristics of a nano-scale TFT with ten 67 nm-wide split channels (M10) are superior to those of other TFTs. The former include a higher field effect mobility of 84.63 cm2/Vs, a higher ON/OFF current ratio (>106), a steeper subthreshold slope (SS) of 230 mV/decade, an absence of drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL). These findings originate from the fact that the active channels of the M10 TFT have exhibit most poly-Si grain enhanced to reduce the grain boundary defects and best NH3 plasma passivation due to its split nanowire structure. Both effects can reduce the number of defects at grain boundaries of poly-Si in active region for high performances. In addition, we have also studied the multi-gate combining the pattern-dependent nickel (Ni) metal-induced lateral crystallization (Ni-MILC) polysilicon thin-film transistors (poly-Si TFTs) with ten nanowire channels. Experimental results reveal that applying ten nanowire channels improves the performance of Ni-MILC poly-Si TFT, which thus has a higher ON current, a lower leakage current and a lower threshold voltage (Vth) than single-channel TFTs. Furthermore, the experimental results reveal that combining the multi-gate structure and ten nanowire channels further enhances the entire performance of Ni-MILC TFTs, which thus have a low leakage current, a high ON/OFF ratio, a low Vth, a steep subthreshold swing (SS) and kink-free output characteristics. The multi-gate with ten nanowire channels NI-MILC TFTs has few poly-Si grain boundary defects, a low lateral electrical field and a gate channel shortening effect, all of which are associated with such high-performance characteristics. The PDMILC TFTs process is compatible with CMOS technology, and involves no extra mask. Such high performance PDMILC TFTs are thus promising for use in future high-performance poly-Si TFT applications, especially in AMLCD and 3D MOSFET stacked circuits.

Abstract:
This chapter encompasses the gradual requirements, basic working principle, inbuilt physics, structural and functional characteristics, and applications of nanowires, especially that of semiconductor nanowires in depth. Today, research and development in material science and electronics going hand in hand have opened up numerous directions for the exploration and utilization of several unique semiconducting materials in the design of novel field-effect-transistors (FETs) in the nano-scale architecture. The performance results of the basic NWFETs structures and hetero-structures along with methods to organize nanowires in the form of arrays to fulfill the requirement of integration of devices and circuits are described in detail. This chapter would be beneficial for students of undergraduate and postgraduate, researchers, and the industrial peoples as well who are working in the regime of the advancement of semiconductor technology because every aspect of nanowire and NWFETs is discussed here deeply in a single platform.
