  • Abstract
    Impact ionisation MOSFET (IMOS) is a new and promising alternative for conventional MOSFET owing to its low subthreshold slope. With the aid of TCAD simulation tools and the resultant figures, the basic physics behind IMOS operation has been studied in this paper. The Id-Vg curve resulting from this study having a subthreshold slope of 1.272mV/dec is also presented in the paper.
