30-nm recessed S/D SOI MOSFET with an ultrathin body and a low SDE resistance

Abstract

A novel ultrathin body SOI MOSFET with a recessed source-drain (S/D) structure is proposed to reduce the S/D extension (SDE) resistance and the feasibility on the proposed device is checked. A recessed buried oxide under the SDE regions is completely filled with the heavily doped polysilicon, which can lead to a low SDE resistance. A recessed S/D SOI MOSFET with 30 nm gate length and 5 nm thick undoped channel, was successfully fabricated and showed the good SCE immunities; little punch-through, the drain-induced barrier lowering of 140 mV/V, and the subthreshold slope of 79 mV/dec.
