Abstract :
We propose a new method to extract the gain of the parasitic bipolar transistor in ultrathin fully-depleted silicon-on-insulator MOSFETs. The method is based on the modulation of the parasitic bipolar effect by back-gate biasing. The bipolar gain can be determined for each transistor, without the need to compare the long and short devices. The proposed method is validated by experimental data and numerical simulations.
