Abstract :
This paper presents a 3D model for a differential electric-field sensitive field effect transistor (DeFET), which is a new CMOS electric-field sensor. The DeFET is used to detect very small partials especially for environmental purposes. This paper also describes the DeFETpsilas theory of operation in addition to simulation results that confirm the DeFETpsilas theory of operation.
