- Abstract
- We present a numerical simulation and physical analysis of how a single dopant in the channel region effects the variation of threshold voltage Delta V-th in highly scaled (gate length = 16 nm) and undoped double-gate fin field effect transistors. The presence of a single contaminant dopant in an undoped channel with an abrupt source/drain (S/D) doping gradient can cause a severe change in Delta V-th (140mV owing to a single acceptor; 100mV owing to a single donor). To effectively suppress this severe variation, we suggest S/D doping gradient engineering to make the lateral straggle of S/D doping (sigma(S/D)) larger than 2 nm to minimize Delta V-th. The distribution of V-th is also estimated by three-dimensional simulation using the position of the dopant. (C) 2010 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
