Practical design of double-gate undoped-channel FinFET has been investigated through 3D device simulations considering gate-induced drain leakage (GIDL). Optimization of FinFET structure was carried out for hp45 low standby power (LSTP) device (Lg = 25nm). GIDL is reduced by using gradual and offset source/drain (S/D) profile while degradation of drive current is minimized. Through the optimization of lateral spread and offset of S/D profile, the ITRS specifications for drive current and off-state leakage current are achievable by FinFET with 10nm fin width
