In this study, a non-linear compact model for I-V characteristics of FinFETs is presented. The model is developed using the profile of drifting carriers, which plays an important role in determining the device characteristics. A mobility model which incorporates the effect of applied potentials is developed and is used to predict the I-V response of the device. Particle swarm parameter extraction technique is engaged for optimum model applications. It is demonstrated by using the experimental data reported in the literature, that the proposed model can predict the I-V characteristics of FinFETs fabricated using Si and GaN materials having gate lengths ranging from 0.05 to 1 μm.
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.
