Analytical Physics-Based Modeling of Electron Channel Density in Nanosheet and Nanowire FETs
We propose a general physics-based approach for an accurate analytical calculation of the channel charge density in field-effect transistors as functions of the external gate biases. This approach is based on a consistent consideration of basic electrostatic equation as a balance of electric and chemical potentials which allows us to obtain in a unified way the explicit analytic expressions continuously de-scribing the subthreshold and above threshold regions in nanosheet (symmetric and asymmetric) and nanowire FETs. Two conceptually different definitions of phenomenological threshold voltage are consistently introduced and discussed.
