Explicit Continuous Models for Double-Gate and Surrounding-Gate MOSFETs

Abstract

Explicit continuous models for both double-gate (DG) and surrounding-gate (SG) MOSFETs are presented. These models evolve from previous DG and SG MOSFETs models, which need to solve implicit equations for intermediate parameters by numerical iteration or the table lookup method. By developing approximate explicit solutions for the intermediate parameters, we can express the drain current, terminal charge, transconductance, and transcapacitance as explicit functions of applied voltages as well as the structural parameters. High accuracy and efficiency, combined with inherited favorable features from the previous models, make these new models suitable for circuit simulation programs.
