Abstract :
For the first time we report the observation of lattice self-heating effects by temperature measurements inside sub-¿m MOSFETs and by dynamic drain current measurements with a time resolution of 3 ns. The temperature dependent electrical resistance of a polysilicon gate has been used as the temperature sensor. With decreasing channel length L the temperature increase rises faster than 1/L. For a n-channel MOSFET with design dimensions W/L = 10/0.6 ¿m the temperature rise approach 60 K at supply voltage of 5.0 V.
