Abstract
This paper presents a method of suppressing kink effects which originate in the corners of triple-gate bulk FinFETs. We propose corner implantation to turn off the parasitic corner device which has lower threshold voltage than the bulk device. This method is investigated in triple-gate bulk FinFETs by 3D numerical simulations. Threshold voltage shift of 0.434 V with a decrease in on-state current of only 23% is achieved, while the kink effect in devices´ current-voltage characteristics is completely eliminated. Corner implantation improves devices´ immunity to short-channel effects.
