Abstract :
This paper proposes a CMOS based process for Vertical Slit Field Effect Transistors. The central part of the device, namely, the vertical slit, is defined by using electron beam lithography and silicon dry etching. In order to verify the validity and the reproducibility of the process, devices having the slit width ranging from 16 nm to 400 nm were fabricated, with slit conductance in the range 0.6 to 3 milliSiemens, in agreement with the expected values.
