Abstract :
This paper describes a method for reducing the kink effect observed in the I-V output characteristics of partially depleted SOI MOSFET. Selective back oxide structure with various gap lengths were used. Results obtained through numerical simulations show that kink can be significantly reduced while preserving the advantage of lower drain-body capacitance offered by conventional SOI structure.
