Abstract

The improvement in sub-threshold electron mobility behavior in SOI-MESFETs when compared to SOI and conventional MOSFET devices was investigated at Arizona State University. An in-house Ensemble Monte Carlo device simulator was used to perform extensive simulations of similar geometry SOI MOSFETs and Si MESFET channels. It was observed that in sub-threshold regime, the Schottky Junction Transistor (SJT) showed higher mobility with respect to bulk or SOI MOSFETs. The enhanced mobility in SOI MESFETs is expected to give rise to higher cut-off frequencies that will make them suitable for application in RF micropower circuit design.
