Random Telegraph Noise of a 28-nm Cryogenic MOSFET in the Coulomb Blockade Regime

Abstract: We observe rich phenomena of two-level random telegraph noise (RTN) from a commercial bulk 28-nm p-MOSFET (PMOS) near threshold at 14 K, where a Coulomb blockade (CB) hump arises from a quantum dot (QD) formed in the channel. Minimum RTN is observed at the CB hump where the high-current RTN level dramatically switches to the low-current level. The gate-voltage dependence of the RTN amplitude and power spectral density match well with the transconductance from the DC transfer curve in the CB hump region. Our wo… Show more

“…As expected, the oscillations became less significant with increase in temperature. Cryogenic characterization of FinFETs has already been performed in a variety of temperatures ranging from 4 to 300 K. [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] However, the HSPICE used in this study guaranteed that the operation takes place at more than 13.15 K (=−260°). As can be easily inferred, lower temperature operation improves the Coulomb oscillation; thus, we consider the limitation of the low 13.15 K as not significant.…”

“…Hence, a leakage current from source to drain through channel as well as gate to the channel through gate oxide layer is unavoidable. As a result recent experimental observations in the oscillations of drain current at both low and room temperatures confirms the origin of Random Telegraph Noise (RTN) that may reduce the performance of qubit gate operations [22][23][24][25][26] In most cases, compared to coherent time, the dephasing time of qubits in presence of noise is reduced by several orders of magnitude due to coupling of qubits to the environment. The reduction of dephasing time depends on the specific dynamical coupling sequence from where the principle of quantum mechanics is inevitably lost.…”
