Bipolar Transistor
www.chu.berkeley.eduspeed than PNP transistors because the electron mobility is larger than the hole mobility. BJTs are almost exclusively of the NPN type since high performance is BJTs’ competitive edge over MOSFETs. Figure 8–1b shows that when the base–emitter junction is forward biased, electrons are injected into the more lightly doped base.

csit-sun.pub.ro• The electron velocity is related to the electric field through the mobility: (3) • Combining (1) and (3) in (2): I Ddx=µ nC OXW(V GS-V(x)-V T)dV (4) • Integrating (4) from 0 to L yields the voltage-current relation of the transistor: (5) • The behavior of the short channel devices deviates considerably from this model. • Eq.
MOSFETs in ICs—Scaling, Leakage, and Other Topics
www.chu.berkeley.eduThe electron and hole mobility can be raised (or lowered) by carefully engineered mechanical strains. The strain changes the lattice constant of the silicon crystal and therefore the E–k relationship through the Schrodinger’s wave equation. The E–k relationship, in turn, determines the effective mass and the mobility.

alan.ece.gatech.eduElectron momentum transfer to the ions in high current density lines. Solution: Add a small number (typically <3-5%) larger atoms such as copper that “anchor” the aluminum atoms in place or replace the entire metal line with larger atoms such as copper so that each atom is more difficult to move.
MOS TRANSISTOR REVIEW - Stanford University
web.stanford.eduFor small gate bias at high drain bias a significant drain leakage can be observed, especially for short channel devices. The electric field can be very high in the drain region for VD high and VG = 0. This can cause band-to-band tunneling. This will happen only if the electric field is sufficiently high to cause large band bending.
