Abstract

We present a theoretical study of vertically-grown Silicon ultra-short FET's. For a gate length of 50 nm a transconductance of at least 1000 mS/mm and a maximum transit time frequency of 200 GHz are predicted. A sensitive influence of the doping profile on short channel effects is demonstrated. Our simulations are based on a new implementation of the Cellular Automata method, which provides a significant suppression of statistical errors. To take advantage of the high speed of the Cellular Automaton a fast multigrid-solver for the Poisson equation has been developed.
