A Compact Subthreshold Model for Short-Channel Monolayer Transition Metal Dichalcogenide Field-Effect Transistors

Abstract

This brief presents a compact subthreshold model for short-channel monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) field-effect transistors. In this model, the impact of fringe fields from the high-K gate dielectric is considered and incorporated into a new characteristic-length expression using a single model parameter. This model has been verified with 2-D numerical simulations for TMD devices with gate length down to 5.9 nm based on ITRS 2028 low-power technology node.
