We present results of fully 2D quantum-mechanical (QM) simulations of nanoscale MOSFET's. The validity of semiclassical transport models arc first discussed. Then, QM effects on threshold voltage, subthreshold slope and short-channel performances are addressed. We show that QM effects significantly affect device performances in the nanoscale range.

Abstract

We present results of fully 2D quantum-mechanical (QM) simulations of nanoscale MOSFET's. The validity of semiclassical transport models arc first discussed. Then, QM effects on threshold voltage, subthreshold slope and short-channel performances are addressed. We show that QM effects significantly affect device performances in the nanoscale range.
