Design, Verification and Circuit Level Implementation of a Ballistic MOSFET
Abstract: A drain current expression is obtained for a nanoscale ballistic MOSFET within the framework of Landauer-Buttiker formalism considering intrinsic silicon channel at low temperature. The model drain current is compared with the numerical simulations of near ballistic nanoMOSFET structure. There is a reasonable agreement between the model and the numerical simulation results. This demonstrates the remarkably low value of the subthreshold slope of ballistic nanoMOSFET. Further, the design structure is …
