Downsizing1. Reduce Capacitance

Reduce switching time of MOSFETsIncrease clock frequency

Increase circuit operation speed2. Increase number of Transistors

Parallel processingIncrease circuit operation speed

Thus, downsizing of Si devices is the most important and critical issue.26

Downsizing contribute to the performance increase in double ways

Wdep: Space Charge Region (or Depletion Region) Width

Wdep has to be suppressedOtherwise, large leakagebetween S and D

Leakage current

By the scaling, Wdep is suppressed in proportion,and thus, leakage can be suppressed.

Good scaled I-V characteristics

Potential in space charge region ishigh, and thus, electrons in source areattracted to the space charge region.

Historically, many predictions of the limit of downsizing.

VLSI text book written 1979 predict that 0.25 micro‐meter would be the limit because of direct‐tunneling current through the very thin‐gate oxide.

Finally,  there  appears  to  be  a  fundamental limit  10 of  approximately  quarter micron channel length, where certain physical effects such  as  the  tunneling  through  the  gate oxide ..... begin  to  make  the  devices  of smaller dimension unworkable.

How far we can go with downscaling?

6767Source: 2008 ITRS Summer Public Conf.

ITRS figure edited by Iwai

5.5nm? was added by Iwai*

5.5nm?*

3 important innovations

-There will be still 4~6 cycles (or technology generations) left untilwe reach 11 ~ 5.5 nm technologies, at which we will reach down-scaling limit, in some year between 2020-30 (H. Iwai, IWJT2008).

-Even After reaching the down-scaling limit, we could still continueR & D, seeking sufficiently higher Id-sat under low Vdd.

-Two candidates have emerged for R & D

2. Alternative channel MOSFETs (III-V, Ge)1. Nanowire/tube MOSFETs

- Other Beyond CMOS devices are still in the cloud.

Current Issues

III-V & Ge NanowireHigh-k gate insulatorWire formation technique

CNT:

Width and Chirality control Growth and integration of CNT

Graphene:Graphene formation technique Suppression of off-current

Very small bandgap or no bandgap (semi-metal)

Control of ribbon edge structure which affects bandgap

Chirality determines conduction types: metal or semiconductor
