  • Abstract
    Device characteristics, calculated using a novel MOSFET model with nonuniform gate thickness, are presented. The results show that nonuniform structures have some advantages over traditional uniform MOSFETs. Tapered-gate MOSFETs have higher output differential saturation resistance and lower electric field near the drain end than uniform MOSFETs
