摘要
This paper presents a new self-consistent multisubband Monte Carlo model for electronic transport in the inversion layer of decananometric MOSFETs. The simulator is 2-D in real space and in (k) over right arrow -space and accounts for the electron-gas degeneracy in the (k) over right arrow -space. Simulation of nanoscale ultra-thin-body silicon-on-insulator MOSFETs shows that the subband structure and the carrier degeneracy strongly affect the transport properties and, in particular, the injection velocity and the channel back-scattering.
