  • Abstract
    Improvement of current drive in n- and p-type silicon junctionless MOSFETs using strain is demonstrated. The extracted piezoresistance coefficients are in good agreement with the piezoresistive theory and the published coefficients for bulk silicon even for 10 nm-thick silicon nanowires as narrow as 20 nm.
