Characterization of 22 nm FDSOI nMOSFETs With Different Backplane Doping at Cryogenic Temperature
In this work, the electrostatic and radio frequency performances of 22 nm FDSOI nMOSFETs with p-type or n-type doped backplane (BP, highly doped layer of silicon below thin buried oxide) at cryogenic temperatures have been investigated. Greater enhancement of drain current <inline-formula> <...
