3

4
Refinement Depletion region excess carriers depleted

5

Usually common across transistors Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
6
No Field VGS=0, VDS=0 Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
7

8
Channel Evolution Increasing Vgs

9
Gate Capacitance Changes based on operating region.
Happy if you treat as parallel plate Capacitor for HW4. Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
10
Inversion Surface builds electrons Inverts to n-type
Draws electrons from n+ source Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
11
Threshold Voltage where strong inversion occurs threshold voltage

12
Resistive Region VGS>VT, VDS small Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
13
Resistive Region VGS>VT, VDS small VGS fixed looks like resistor
Current linear in VDS Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
14
Linear (Resistive) Region

Blue curve marks transition from Linear to Saturation Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
16

17
Preclass Ids for identical transistors in parallel?
Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
18
Preclass Ids for identical transistors in series? (Vds small)
Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
19
Transistor Strength (W/L)
D Transistor Strength (W/L) Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
20
Transistor Strength (W/L)
D Transistor Strength (W/L) Shape dependence match Resistance intuition Wider = parallel resistors decrease R Longer = series resistors increase R Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
21
Ldrawn vs. Leffective Doping not perfectly straight Spreads under gate
Effective L smaller than draw gate width Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
22
Channel Voltage Voltage varies along channel
Think of channel as resistor Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
23
Preclass 2 What is voltage in the middle of a resistive medium?
(halfway between terminals) Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
24
Voltage in Channel Think of channel as resistive medium
Length = L Area = Width * Depth(inversion) What is voltage in the middle of the channel? L/2 from S and D ? Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
25
Channel Voltage Voltage varies along channel
If think of channel as resistor Serves as a voltage divider between VS and VD Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
26
Impact on Inversion What happens when What is Vmiddle-Vs? Vgs=2Vth ?
Vds=2Vth? What is Vmiddle-Vs? Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
27
Channel Field When voltage gap VG-Vxdrops below VTH, drops out of inversion Occurs when: VGS-VDS< VTH What does this mean about conduction? Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
28
Preclass 3 What is Vm? Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
29
Channel Field When voltage gap VG-Vxdrops below VT, drops out of inversion Occurs when: VGS-VDS< VT What is voltage at Vmiddle if conduction stops? What does that mean about conduction? Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
30
Contradiction? Vg-Vx < Vt cutoff (no current)
No current Vg-Vx=Vgs Vg-Vx=Vgs > Vt current flows Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
31
Way out? Vg-Vx < Vt cutoff (no current) No current Vg-Vx=Vgs
Vg-Vx=Vgs > Vt current flows Act like Vds at Vgs-Vt Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
32
Channel Field When voltage gap VG-Vxdrops below VT, drops out of inversion Occurs when: VGS-VDS< VT Channel is “pinched off” Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
33
Channel Field When voltage gap VG-Vxdrops below VT, drops out of inversion Occurs when: VGS-VDS< VT Channel is “pinched off” Current will flow, but cannot increase any further Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
34
Pinch Off When voltage drops below VT, drops out of inversion
Occurs when: VGS-VDS< VT Conclusion: current cannot increase with VDS once VDS> VGS-VT Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
35
Saturation In saturation, VDS-effecitve=Vx= VGS-VT Becomes:
Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
36
Saturation VDS> VGS-VT Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
37
Saturation Region Blue curve marks transition from Linear
to Saturation Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
38
Preclass 3 What is electrical field in channel? Velocity: v=F*μ
Leff=25nm, VDS=1V Field = VDS/L Velocity: v=F*μ Electron mobility: μn = 500 cm2/V What is electron velocity? Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
39
Short Channel Model assumes carrier velocity increases with field
Increases with voltage There is a limit to how fast carriers can move Limited by scattering to 105m/s How relate to preclass 3 velocity? Encounter when channel short Modern processes, L is short enough Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
40
Velocity Saturation Once velocity saturates:

41
Velocity Saturation Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
42
Below Threshold Transition from insulating to conducting is non-linear, but not abrupt Current does flow But exponentially dependent on VGS Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
43
Subthreshold Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
44
Subthreshold S D W/L dependence follow from resistor behavior (parallel, series) Not shown explicitly in text λ is a channel width modulation effect Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
45
Subthreshold Slope Exponent in VGS determines how steep the turnoff is
Every S Volts Divide IDS by 10 Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
46
Subthreshold Slope Exponent in VGS determines how steep the turnoff is
Every S Volts (S not related to source) Divide IDS by 10 n – depends on electrostatics n=1 S=60mV at Room Temp. (ideal) n=1.5 S=90mV Single gate structure showing S=90-110mV Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
