Is there a kink effect in FDSOI MOSFETs?

Systematic experiments demonstrate the presence of the kink effect even in FDSOI MOSFETs. The back-gate bias controls the kink effect via the formation of a back accumulation channel. The kink is more or less pronounced according to the film thickness and channel length. However, in ultrathin (<;10 nm) and/or very short transistors (L <; 50 nm), the kink is totally absent as a consequence of super-coupling effect. For the first time, thanks to the availability of body contacts, the potential was probed to evidence the role of majority carrier excess during the kink effect onset.
