摘要
InGaAs FinFETs with sub-10 nm fin widths were fabricated for the first time using precision dry etching and digital etch. We find that the threshold voltage, V-T, becomes highly sensitive to the fin width, W-f, in the sub-10 nm W-f range. 2D Poisson-Schrodinger simulations suggest that this is due to quantization effects. We also show that in the quantum regime, a sidewall slope below 85 degrees significantly reduce V-T variation at the same drawn dimensions.
