This book provides a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-artin the development of new and innovative materials, and of advancedmodeling and characterization methods for nanoscale CMOS devices.
Leading global industry bodies including the InternationalTechnology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) have created aforecast of performance improvements that will be delivered in theforeseeable future - in the form of a roadmap that will leadto a substantial enlargement in the number of materials,technologies and device architectures used in CMOS devices. This book addresses the field of materialsdevelopment, which has been the subject of a major research driveaimed at finding new ways to enhance the performance ofsemiconductor technologies. It covers three areas that willeach have a dramatic impact on the development of future CMOSdevices: global and local strained and alternative materials forhigh speed channels on bulk substrate and insulator; very lowaccess resistance; and various high dielectric constant gate stacksfor power scaling.
The book also provides information on the most appropriatemodeling and simulation methods for electrical properties ofadvanced MOSFETs, including ballistic transport, gate leakage,atomistic simulation, and compact models for single and multi-gatedevices, nanowire and carbon-based FETs. Finally, the bookpresents an in-depth investigation of the main nanocharacterizationtechniques that can be used for an accurate determination oftransport parameters, interface defects, channel strain as well asRF properties, including capacitance-conductance, improved splitC-V, magnetoresistance, charge pumping, low frequency noise, andRaman spectroscopy.
