Partial Isolation Type Saddle-FinFET(Pi-FinFET) for Sub-30 nm DRAM Cell Transistors
In this paper, we proposed a novel saddle type FinFET (S-FinFET) to effectively solve problems occurring under the capacitor node of a dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) cell and showed how its structure was superior to conventional S-FinFETs in terms of short channel effect (SCE), subthreshold slo...

In this paper, we proposed a novel saddle type FinFET (S-FinFET) to effectively solve problems occurring under the capacitor node of a dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) cell and showed how its structure was superior to conventional S-FinFETs in terms of short channel effect (SCE), subthreshold slope (SS), and gate-induced drain leakage (GIDL). The proposed FinFET exhibited four times lower Ioff than modified S-FinFET, called RFinFET, with more improved drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL) characteristics, while minimizing Ion reduction compared to RFinFET. Our results also confirmed that the proposed device showed improved drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL) and Ioff characteristics as gate channel length decreased. |
