Abstract :
After having been considered “exotic devices”, multigate 3D transistor such as FinFETs, trigate FETs or Gate-all-Around nanowire FETs have become an industrial reality. The excellent electrostatic control of the channel region by the multigate architecture allows one to reduce short-channel effects well below the 20nm node and have the potential to extend Moore´s law down to a gate length of 3nm.
