High-Drain Field Impacting Channel-Length Modulation Effect for Nano-Node N-Channel FinFETs

Three dimensional (3-D) FinFET devices with an ultra-high Si-fin aspect ratio have been developed after integrating a 14Å nitrided gate oxide upon the silicon on insulator (SOI) wafers through an advanced CMOS logic platform. Under the lower gate voltage (<i>V<sub>GS</sub></i>...
