摘要
A 2-dimensional simulation tool was designed to investigate the threshold voltage behaviour for a silicon nanowire constructed in a top down approach on silicon on insulator (SOI) material. The simulation shows, assuming a positive charge of +1.10(11) cm(-2) between the silicon/silicon dioxide interface and negatively charged surface states on top of the nanowire that the threshold voltage increases with decreasing height of the nanowire.
