The model is an extension to a ballistic model (J. Appl. Phys. 76, 4879 (1994)) and includes transmission probability and the drain-channel coupling capacitor. The latter parameter gives rise to a theoretical RON that is significantly larger than those predicted previously. To validate our model, we fabricated n-channel MOSFETs with varying channel lengths. We show the length dependence of these parameters to support a quasi-ballistic description of our devices.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-03-21T13:46:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "two-parameter quasi-ballistic transport model", "nanoscale transistors", "purely ballistic transport model", "nanoscale mosfets", "ballistic model" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
