A compact double-gate MOSFET model comprising quantum-mechanical and non-static effects

A compact model for the double-gate MOSFET (DG-MOSFET) which fully accounts for quantum mechanical effects, including motion quantization normal to the Si-SiO/sub 2/ interface, band splitting into subbands and non-static effects in the transport model, is worked out. The model holds both in subthreshold and strong inversion, and ensures a smooth transition between the two regions. A simplified energy-balance transport model is worked out which allows us to compare the drain-current calculations with Monte Carlo data.
