Description
Summary:Junctionless transistors (JLTs) are an attractive candidate for advanced complementary metal oxide semiconductor technologies, but their mode of operation is very different from that of conventional inversion-mode transistors. In this study, we explore the close relationship between the key electrical parameters of JLTs, such as doping concentration (Nd), threshold voltage (Vth), and flat-band voltage (Vfb). The separation between Vfb and Vth in JLTs increases linearly with Nd, and the rate of increase in the separation was affected by the maximum depletion depth (Dmax) at given Nd. These findings will enable researchers to estimate simply the Nd or Vfb values of not only JLTs but also JLT-like multi-layer transition metal dichalcogenide-based transistors.
