Bulk-Si MOSFET Scaling Issues

Leakage current is the primary barrier to scaling


To suppress leakage, we need to employ:
Higher body doping lower carrier mobility, higher
junction capacitance, increased junction leakage
Thinner gate dielectric higher gate leakage
Ultra-shallow S/D junctions higher Rseries
Desired characteristics:

- High ON current (Idsat)


- Low OFF current

DRAM application of Bulk FinFET

Negative word line bias is introduced due to lower VT

NTUEE Seminar 2006/04/29

NWL Scheme

Lower VT (doping concentration) FinFET combined


with NWL scheme can provide lower leakage and
higher performance
NWL bias is critical to refresh fail bit
