  • Abstract
    Numerical simulation is applied to analyze the tunneling gate current of ultra-thin single-gate SOI MOSFETs. The results of the self-consistent solution of 1D Schrodinger and Poisson equations show that, for very thin silicon layers, the gate tunneling currents depend on the thickness of the silicon region because this significantly affects the 2D subband structure in the inversion layer
