Low leakage and low active-power 25 nm gate length C-MOSFETs are demonstrated for the first time with a newly proposed Omega-(0) shaped slruchue, at a conservative 17-19 A gate oxide thickness, and with excellent hot carrier immunity. For 1 volt operation, the transistors give drive currents of 1440 pNpm and 780 pA/pm with off state leakage currents of 8 n N p and 0.4 nNpm for N-FET and P-FET, respectively. A low voltage version achieves, at 0.7 V, drive currents of 1300 p A / p for N-FET and 550 pNpm for P-FET at an off current of 1 pNpm. N-FET gate delay (CYII) of 0.39 ps and P-FET gate delay of 0.88 ps exceed International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) projections [I].
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
