Abstract: Correlated mobility fluctuations are considered in the physics-based carrier number fluctuation (ΔΝ) low-frequency noise (LFN) compact model of single-layer graphene field effect transistors (GFET) in the present study. Trapped charge density and Coulomb scattering coefficient ΔΝ LFN parameters are obtained after applying a parameter extraction methodology, adapted from conventional silicon technologies,to the linear ambipolar regions of GFETs. Appropriate adjustments are considered in the method according to GFETs’physical characteristics. Afterwards, Hooge mobility as well asseries resistance fluctuations LFN parameters can be extracted.The updated LFN model is validated with experimental data from various long and short-channel GFETs at an extendedrange of gate and drain bias conditions.

Abstract: In this paper, we develop a compact physics-based statistical model for random telegraph noise-related low-frequency noise in bulk MOSFETS with laterally uniform doping. The proposed model is suited for modern compact device models, such as PSP, BSIM, and EKV. With our proposed model, one can calculate the expected value and the variability of the noise as a function of bias and device parameters. We validate the model through numerous experimental results from different CMOS nodes, down to 40 nm [read more...]
