Nowadays, the endlessly increasing demand for faster and complex integrated circuits (IC) has been fuelled by the scaling of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistors (MOSFET) to smaller dimensions. The continued scaling of MOSFETs approaches its physical limits due to short-channel effects (SCE). Double-gate (DG) MOSFET is one of the promising alternatives as it offers better immunity towards SCEs and can be scaled to the shortest channel length. In future, ICs can be designed using DG-CMOS technology for which mathematical models depicting the electrical characteristics of the DG MOSFETs are foremost needed. In this paper, a review on n-type symmetric DG MOSFETs models has been presented based on the analyses of electrostatic potential distribution, threshold voltage, and drain-current models. Mathematical derivations of the device models are described elaborately, and numerical simulations are also carried out to validate the replicability of models.
