Abstract

This paper presents a continuous analytic model for undoped (lightly doped) cylindrical surrounding-gate MOSFETs by a carrier-based approach. This model is based on an exact solution of the Poisson equation and a Pao-Sah current formulation in terms of the carrier concentration and valid for all the operation regions (linear, saturation, sub-threshold) and traces the transition between them. We have also demonstrated that the I-V characteristics obtained by this model agree with two-dimensional numerical simulations for all ranges of gate and drain voltages without any fitting-parameter, thus it will be an ideal framework for small size surrounding-gate MOSFET modelling.
