A fully depleted silicon-on-insulator (FD SOI) device having an ultrathin buried oxide (BOX) with a 45-nm fully silicided (FUSI) NiSi gate, and a hybrid SOI/bulk complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) integration process have been developed. The optimal threshold voltage (V th ) for low stand-by power (LSTP) applications in FUSI gate silicon on thin BOX (SOTB) MOSFETs was achieved while keeping a lightly doped channel. By using back-gate bias, we have demonstrated the optimization of device power and performance and a reduction in V th variation after device fabrication. We have also shown that the characteristics of the integrated hybrid bulk transistor are comparable to those of conventional bulk transistors.
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.
