| | First self-consistent thermal electron- phonon simulator | | Authors: | D. Vasileska, K. Raleva, S.M. Goodnick | | Affilation: | Arizona State University, US | | Pages: | 537 - 540 | | Keywords: | lattice heating, FD-SOI devices, Monte Carlo methods | | Abstract: | We have developed the first self-consistent thermal electron-phonon simulator which solves the Boltzmann transport equation for the electrons and the energy balance equations for phonons, and as such allows us to make realistic estimates on the on-current degradation in FD-SOI devices with SIO2 and high-k dielectrics as gate oxides. For the first time we present a detailed study on the influence of lattice heating on the on-current for different generations of FD-SOI devices. Non-scationary transport (velocity overshoot) present in the smallest structures being investigated is responsible for the smaller thermal degradation in the smallest geometry device structures being considered. | | ISBN: | 978-1-4200-8505-1 |
