Abstract: A full-region model for ultra-scaled monolayer MoS2 MOSFETs is reported in this work. The electrostatic potential in the scaled transistor structure is analyzed based on a first-principle verified potential model. A continuous full region current model is then developed to capture the short channel effects. Based on the potential model, the barrier height and width for direct source-drain tunneling are obtained. The direct tunneling module reproduces the essential physics observed from numerical device simulations. After integration with the thermionic emission model, the full-region current model is implemented into a SPICE simulator and the model convergence is verified by simulating typical circuits.
A drift-diffusion current model of the full region is straightforwardly derived with Taylor expansions of a Si model or from the Pao-Sah integral. It resembles the EKV current model and allows similar expressions of small signal models:

showed in (a) Ids–Vg and (b) Ids–Vd characteristics predicted by the model
covering SCEs. When channel length becomes smaller, SCEs becomes
more serious.
