Abstract

Vertical InAs/InGaAs nanowire MOSFETs are fabricated in a gate-last fabrication process, which allows gate-lengths down to 25 nm and accurate gate-alignment. These devices demonstrate high performance with transconductance of 2.4 mS/μm, high on-current, and off-current below 1 nA/μm. An in-depth analysis of the heterostructure MOSFETs are obtained by systematically varying the gate-length and gate location. Further analysis is done by using virtual source modeling. The injection velocities and transistor metrics are correlated with a quasi-ballistic 1-D MOSFET model. Based on our analysis, the observed performance improvements are related to the optimized gate-length, high injection velocity due to asymmetric... (More)

The injection velocities and transistor metrics are correlated with a quasi-ballistic 1-D MOSFET model. Based on our analysis, the observed performance improvements are related to the optimized gate-length, high injection velocity due to asymmetric scattering, and low access resistance.
