Abstract: A single unified analytical model is presented to predict the shot noise for both the source to drain (SD) and the gate tunneling current in sub-10 nm MOSFETs with ultrathin oxide. Based on the Landauer formula, the model is constructed from the sequential tunneling flows associated with number fluctuations. This approach provides the analytical formulation of the shot noise as a function of the applied voltages. The model performs well in predicting the Fano factor for shot noise in the SD and gate tunneling currents.
