  • Abstract
    We study hole inversion layers in bulk MOSFETs and silicon-on-insulator devices employing a self-consistent simulator based on the six-band k·p model. Valence Band structure is computed for different device orientations and silicon layer thicknesses, and then it is characterized through the calculation of different effective masses.
