Abstract

In this study, a silicon on insulator vertical super-thin body (SOI VSTB FET) is proposed and a comparative analysis of the electrical properties of SOI and conventional VSTB FET is discovered in detail. The use of suitable doping profiles significantly improves the On–Off current ratio (ION/IOFF) and sub-threshold swing (SS) of the proposed device. The SOI VSTB FET supports aggressive scaling while maintaining electrostatic integrity and low supply voltage to a large extent. The results also revealed that the SOI VSTB FET is superior in terms of Off-current (IOFF), On-current (ION), and Sub-threshold swing (SS) in comparison with the conventional VSTB FET.
