Abstract
An analytical expression for the sheet density of induced electrons in chan nels of symmetric and asymmetric double-gate (DG) silicon-on-insulator (SOI ) MOSFETs in a subthreshold region has been developed. A new approach for a pproximating the vertical electric-field in the silicon layer enabled the s imple expression for electron density to be derived. This model was found t o be useful for devices with wide ranges of silicon-layer thickness and cha nnel-impurity concentration. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights rese rved.
