Abstract
Effects of the diameter on the drain current of uniaxially strained Si nanowire (NW) MOSFETs are investigated. Based on the deterministic solution of the multi-subband Boltzmann transport equation, the drain current is calculated considering the intravalley acoustic phonon scatterings, intervalley phonon scatterings and interface roughness scatterings. We found 3 nm diameter [110] oriented Si NW MOSFETs shows ∼2X drain current enhancement by the 1% uniaxial tensile strain.
