Abstract
In this article, we will analyze and provide new insights into the polarization gradient effect of a ferroelectric using TCAD simulation and demonstrate how to model the polarization gradient effect using the negative capacitance FET (NCFET) compact model based on the BSIM framework. A larger value of ${g}$ (the coefficient of polarization gradient effect) results in improved subthreshold slope, smaller OFF-current, smaller drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL), and smaller output conductance. Inclusion of the polarization gradient effect in the NCFET compact model improves usability because it accurately captures the effects of negative DIBL and negative output conductance.
