Insights to emitter saturation current densities of boron implanted samples based on defects simulations

Emitter saturation current densities, Joe have been investigated with different boron implantation dose and annealing conditions. The higher thermal budgets used here are shown experimentally to improve Joe, implying more complete defect dissolution. Simulations show that significant degradation in Joe can be attributed to the presence of...

Interface trap density metrology from sub-threshold transport in highly scaled undoped Si n-FinFETs

Channel conductance measurements can be used as a tool to study thermally activated electron transport in the sub-threshold region of state-of-art FinFETs. Together with theoretical tight-binding (TB) calculations, this technique can be used to understand the dependence of the source-to-channel barrier height (Eb) and the active channel area ...
