Abstract

A MOSFET formed by a Si cantilever channel suspended between source/drain “anchors” wrapped all-around by high-κ dielectric and metal gate is demonstrated. The device shows excellent subthreshold characteristics and low leakage currents due to the fully depleted body and the gate-all-around architecture implemented with a high-κ dielectric and metal gate. At the same time this also allows a high drive current due to mobility enhancements arising from volume inversion of the cantilever channel such that a large ION/IOFF is achieved.
