Abstract

A two-dimensional (2-D) analytical solution of electrostatic potential is derived for undoped (or lightly doped) double-gate (DG) MOSFETs in the subthreshold region by solving Poissons equation in a 2-D boundary value problem. It is shown that the subthreshold current, short-channel threshold voltage rolloff and subthreshold slope predicted by the analytical solution are in close agreement with 2-D numerical simulation results for both symmetric and asymmetric DG MOSFETs without the need of any fitting parameters. The analytical model not only provides useful physics insight into short-channel effects, but also serves as basis for compact modeling of DG MOSFETs.
