Area of Work
FinFET statistical Compact Modelling
Continuous scaling down of transistors moves them to hit the physical limitation of devices. Short channel effect, increasing leakage current, statistical variation due to discreteness of charge and granularity of matter, gate insulator tunnelling, and limited control of doping concentration are main obstacles toward further down scaling of devices.
FinFETs are the most promising device structures to address short channel effects and leakage issues in deeply scaled CMOS, as FinFETs can be fabricated using conventional CMOS processes, and because these can be made in a self-aligned process.
